Palworld – one of the biggest video game success stories of 2024 – is still in early access, which means it’s still getting updates frequently in the leadup to the game’s official 1.0 release. The benefit of an extended early access period means that developer Pocketpair can respond to fan feedback and implement things that players really want, and the latest update for the game is full of this.
Palworld v0.5.0 is out now on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5, and it brings with it one of the most-requested features for the game since it launched: cross-platform play. This update means that players can team up with their friends no matter which platform they play on, which is sure to be a boon for the popular game. The update also brings with it a host of smaller additions, including a Global Palbox to transfer Pals between worlds, a new storage system that has 10 times the capacity of a Palbox, cosmetic armor separate from equipped armor, and a photo mode for taking those perfect shots.
