Palworld’s April 21 patch makes it easier than ever to hatch eggs, pet your Pals

Palworld players who enjoy petting their Pals, rejoice’ today’s v0.2.3.0 update brings a much-needed fix to a bug that prevented the ability to pet your own Pals.

While the update doesn’t have anything new content-wise, it will now be a lot easier to breed Pals. Eggs now hatch 50 percent faster when using the Electric Egg Incubator, meaning you’ll be able to breed Pals much quicker.

For those struggling to keep their Pals happy, today’s patch fixes a long-standing bug related to petting. A bug that prevented the option to pet a Pal has finally been removed, meaning you’ll be able to thank your hard-working Pals properly again.
