Palworld 1.0 launches July 10 — the World Tree is finally here!

It's official: Palworld leaves Early Access on July 10, 2026. Pocketpair is launching version 1.0 simultaneously on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Game Pass — more than two years after the game took the world by storm.
The headline feature is the World Tree, the mysterious landmark you've been able to see but never reach since launch. In 1.0 it opens up as the heart of the new endgame and the centerpiece of an expanded story.
There's a lot more in the box: more new Pals than any previous update (including the jester-themed newcomer Dupin), extensive gameplay and progression overhauls spanning the early to late game, brand-new regions and enemies, and ongoing post-launch content already confirmed. Pocketpair recommends a fresh save for the reworked progression — though existing saves stay compatible. Note there are no Pal evolutions in this release.
With a simultaneous multi-platform and Game Pass launch, expect a big wave of players on day one. Want to explore the World Tree with friends? Spin up a Palworld server at gamever.io — fast 1.0 updates and one-click backups so you're ready the moment it goes live. Free trial, promo code WELCOME.
