In early 2024, Pocketpair’s Palworld, a popular RPG that combines Pokemon-style gameplay with gun-toting action, became an overnight success, captivating players with its unique mechanics. After six months of development, the new Sakurajima expansion has finally been released. While the attention may be on the new Pals, bosses, and region, some observant players have taken notice of the smaller changes it brings.
Are You a Fan of the Palworld Sakurajima Update’s New Changes?
On the Palworld subreddit, fans are discussing some of the less popular modifications introduced in the Sakurajima update that have caught their attention.
Currently, the top-rated comments are centered around the modifications that simplify the management of your Pal base. In particular, user Artemus_Hackwell highlights certain changes such as the addition of a light indicator when a Pal egg has finished incubating. Additionally, you now have the ability to mark certain Pals as favorites in your Palbox and organize them using new filters. Furthermore, there is now a more convenient method for assigning Pals to tasks directly from the monitor, rather than having to search for them manually.
Beans2020 also mentions another advantage, which is the increase in Capture XP bonus from 10 to 12 every time you catch a Pal. Although it may seem insignificant, it does help alleviate the initial grind in the game and allows for faster level ups.
Minor tweaks have also been made to dungeons in the Sakurajima region, although they may not be as attention-grabbing as other updates. User Demonking3343 points out these changes, such as the addition of new flowers within dungeons for potion-making and the fixing of a wall glitch that allowed players to bypass parts of the dungeon.
Despite the update on X (formerly Twitter), there are still some dissatisfied individuals. The lack of crossplay between the Xbox and Steam versions of Palworld, which the community has been requesting for some time, has been heavily criticized.
all these update notes… what about crossplay with xbox to steam? does that still not exist?
