Palworld’s latest update (v0.6.5) targets two critical player pain points:
- PS5 Save Data Corruption: Fixed unstable saves during extended multiplayer sessions
- Unwanted Mission Pop-Ups: Eliminated disruptive mission alerts in single-player/co-op modes
This patch prioritizes stability after players reported corrupted saves and immersion-breaking interruptions.
PS5 Multiplayer Save Stability
The Problem:
Extended multiplayer sessions caused save files to become corrupted under specific conditions, risking progress loss.
The Fix:
Optimized data handling during co-op play ensures saves remain stable – crucial for marathon Pal-taming sessions.
Affected players should:
- Re-download the patch
- Avoid long sessions until confirming stability
- Back up saves via PS Plus Cloud

Mission Pop-Up Disruptions Resolved
The Problem:
Host players in single-player or co-op modes experienced random mission alerts breaking gameplay flow.
The Fix:
Mission triggers now only activate when intentionally initiated, restoring exploration and combat immersion.
