Palworld 1.0: World Tree, Sky Islands, expanded map and new breeding

1.0 is the biggest update in the game's history: expanded map, World Tree endgame, 72 new Pals and the new Mutation and Awakening mechanics.

Palworld 1.0 isn't just an "out of Early Access" label: it's the biggest content update Pocketpair has ever shipped. On the menu:

  • World Tree : the long-awaited endgame zone finally opens, along with the Sky Islands.
  • Expanded map : Palpagos grows with the Sky Islands, the World Tree, 7 new small islands and revamped sanctuaries.
  • Record Pal drop : 1.0 adds more new Pals than any previous update; the trailer teases a fire dragon, a sword eel and a new legendary sky dragon.
  • Mutation : a new breeding system that can produce Pals stronger than the normal breeding result.
  • Reworked Tower Bosses : more dynamic tower boss fights.
  • Revamped Sanctuaries : each sanctuary now has its own ecosystem, with rare Pals, unique materials and powerful bosses.
  • Server Clustering : a new architecture for community dedicated servers.

Good news for veterans: Early Access worlds carry over, with no forced wipe, although Pocketpair officially recommends a fresh character for the full 1.0 experience.

Our dedicated guides (getting started in 1.0, breeding, World Tree) will land here at release.
