Palworld developer Pocketpair has released the biggest update to the game yet, adding its first raid boss, called Bellanoir, alongside a long list of new content.
Palworld update v.0.2.0.6, out now on Steam and coming soon to Xbox, lets players summon Raid Boss Pals by using slabs at the new Summoning Altar. Pocketpair warned that Raid Boss Pals summoned by slabs are “very powerful” and cannot be captured. The developer recommended players work alongside their base Pals to take on these powerful foes.
There’s even an “extreme” version of the Raid Boss that Pocketpair described as “incredibly powerful and difficult to defeat.” Pals Eggs can drop after defeating Raid Boss Pals.
Elsewhere, a number of new items are added to the game, including new Training Manual items that let you give experience points to Pals. New Recovery Meds items slowly recover your HP over time. And the new Homeward Thundercloud item instantly moves you to your nearest base.
There’s a lot more to the update (check out the patch notes below), such as changes to the Pals, improvements to the user interface, balance adjustments, bug fixes, and more cheat prevention measures. Changes to bases are also included. For example, you can now force a Pal to work and cancel their break by picking them up and throwing them towards a facility.
