A remarkable feature which Palworld offers is the different kinds of Pals and their interactions. Hence, developers make sure that it is top-notch. Through numerous processes, Pal AI has been improved to enable aggressive combat tactics and refine long-press ops.

Palworld Update 0.1.5.0 Highlights

• Improved interaction accuracy with adjacent objects.

Pals

• Fixed bug where if a large amount of experience points were gained and the level increased to 50 at once, Pals would not learn any active skills
