Summary (AI)
The Palworld 1.0 update introduces major system changes and requires players to remove all old mod files manually before updating to prevent crashes, corrupted save data, and progression issues. Simply disabling mods or unsubscribing from Workshop mods is not sufficient, as leftover files can still cause problems. Players should back up saves, delete all mod-related files from the game folder, verify game file integrity through Steam, and ensure the game launches properly without mods before applying the update. Mods should only be reinstalled after confirming they have been updated for version 1.0, as issues with modified data are not supported.

  • Palworld and Pocketpair support modding, and we're grateful to all our fans who have dedicated time into modding the game up now. We look forward to seeing all the amazing MODs that will be made after 1.0.
  • However, if you haven't played the game in a long time then it is possible you may have old and potentially harmful MOD data still on your PC.
  • The upcoming 1.0 update for Palworld makes significant changes to the game’s systems. If you still have MODs installed from the past, especially MODs that have been left installed since around 2024, you may encounter problems such as:
  • ・Corrupted save data or save data failing to load
  • ・Quests or events becoming impossible to progress
  • Please Note! Simply turning MODs “off” or “disabling” them is not enough.
  • MOD files and MOD loaders that remain in the game folder may still be loaded when the game starts, even if they have been disabled, and can cause issues. Please manually delete these files before updating. If you have ever installed MODs in the past, even if they are currently turned off, please make sure to delete the files.
