Palworld version 0.7, titled Home Sweet Home, marks a shift toward strengthening and refining existing systems as groundwork for the eventual 1.0 release. While lighter on raw content compared to earlier updates, this release focuses on base-building freedom, combat improvements, and long-requested structural upgrades that improve how players interact with their homes and battles.
The update also delivers Palworld’s second collaboration, new raid mechanics, experimental PvP tools, and Steam Workshop support on PC. Together, these changes expand player expression, long-term replayability, and technical foundations as development moves toward the full launch.
