The Fix You Might Have Missed
While Palworld players await major updates, developer Pocketpair quietly deployed version v0.6.1 – a crucial patch targeting a frustrating bug that corrupted Pal team presets. The fix addresses a specific but disruptive issue: game-crashing errors occurring when players saved team configurations with empty slots and returned to the title screen.
Why This Small Patch Matters
Though minor on paper, this correction solves real gameplay headaches:
- Prevents loss of carefully crafted Pal team setups
- Eliminates crashes during base management sessions
- Stops progression blockers for completionists organizing their collections
The update demonstrates Pocketpair’s commitment to polishing existing systems while larger expansions develop.

The Elephant in the Room: Console Save Issues
Acknowledging ongoing frustrations, the patch notes confirm:
“We are aware of the auto save issue on Xbox and PS5 and are currently investigating.”
This refers to persistent reports of:
- Progress loss after crashes
- Corrupted save files
- Delayed auto-saves during long sessions
No timeline was given, but the public admission suggests priority attention.
What Players Should Do Now
- PC Players: Update immediately via Steam for smoother team management
- Console Commanders:
- Manually save frequently until fix arrives
- Avoid marathon sessions without backup saves
- Report issues via official Palworld support channels
- All Platforms: Reorganize Pal Box teams without fearing blank slot crashes

This “silent update” follows Pocketpair’s pattern of addressing community pain points between major content drops. With June’s Sakurajima update still fresh, players can expect:
- More stability patches before next expansion
- Continued transparency about console issues
- Potential hotfixes for save problems
As the studio noted: “We apologize for the inconvenience” – signaling awareness that console players need solutions urgently.
