What time does Palworld 1.0 release? Launch time countdown
Pocketpair says the full release brings the game’s biggest update, with existing save files still compatible and a $20.99 Steam discount ahead of launch.
- On July 10, 2026, developer Pocketpair will officially launch Palworld 1.0, ending more than two years of early access; players in North and South America gain access on July 9.
- The full release launches simultaneously on Steam, Microsoft Store, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One, with standard pricing at $29.99 or discounted to $20.99 on Steam.
- Community representative John 'Bucky' Buckley confirmed existing save files remain compatible; "Players can continue their existing saves if they wish," Bucky explained in a Discord post.
- Pocketpair recommends starting a fresh playthrough because the full release significantly overhauls progression, story, and battle mechanics, marking the largest changes in Palworld's history.
- Launch times vary globally, with the release planned for around 12:30pm Japan Standard Time on July 10, concluding the early access phase for the hit title.
