Seasonal Halloween Skins for Fan-Favorite Pals
Just in time for Halloween, Palworld has released an update introducing spooky new skins for four fan-favorite Pals: Cattiva, Katress, Pengullet, and Croajiro. Developer Pocketpair dropped the update late on October 29, giving players the chance to explore these festive new visuals. Early reactions from players have been overwhelmingly positive, with many appreciating the Halloween vibe and attention to detail in the skins.
Update Brings Bug Fixes
Beyond the new visual content, this update includes several important bug fixes, resolving various performance issues on different platforms. PlayStation 5 players, in particular, will be glad to see the fix for a bug that caused trees to respawn even where structures were built over them.
Free Skins for All Players
All players logging into the game will receive these free Halloween skins (provided they own the corresponding Pal). Here’s the lineup of new costumes:
- Halloween Cattiva
- Spectacled Katress
- Pirate Pengullet
- Halloween Croajiro
Expanded Multiplayer Options
This update also brings a new feature for multiplayer fans, significantly increasing the text chat character limit, allowing for longer messages—a perfect addition for building strategy and communication between players.
Key Bug Fixes
In addition to smaller bugs, the update resolves critical issues like memory leaks on servers, game crashes, and a glitch where large Pals could push players under the map. Custom marker displays and minor translation errors have also been addressed.
Palworld’s First Halloween Event
This is Palworld’s first Halloween event since the game’s release in early 2024. While skins are a relatively new addition, they’ve quickly become popular, with some also available as Twitch rewards. Players have praised Pocketpair’s approach to seasonal content, with many hoping for more holiday-themed events in the future.
Palworld vs. Nintendo – Ongoing Legal Dispute
The update arrives amidst an ongoing legal dispute between Pocketpair and Nintendo and The Pokémon Company. The conflict, focused on alleged patent infringement, has drawn attention, especially as some Pals bear a resemblance to Pokémon.
Update Now Available on All Platforms
The latest Palworld update is ready to download for Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. Jump in to explore the Halloween content and enjoy the spooky season in-game!
