Pocketpair have released the latest update for their smash-hit monster catching game Palworld, bringing cross-play for all platforms along with other features and bug fixes. At last, I can get my console friends to run around with me on Linux thanks to Valve's Proton.

There's also a new Global Palbox you can use to transfer them between worlds, a bigger Pal storage system, a new cosmetic system to change your style without affecting your armour stats, a photo mode and more. One of my favourite changes is that Pals will no longer block building - at last! That was quite a nuisance when you have a lot of them running around doing things.

▼ Bug Fixes
・Fixed an issue where players could get launched into space while climbing
・Fixed a bug where getting stunned by an enemy while riding a flying Pal over water would send the player flying into the sky
・Fixed an issue where commanding a summoned Pal to attack would also target the Black Marketeer and Medal Merchant
・Fixed a bug where Bounty Tokens with identical passive effects did not stack properly
・Fixed an issue where players would sometimes get launched upward when dismounting Azurmane
・Fixed an issue on dedicated servers where Pals could get stuck on top of feed boxes
・Fixed an issue where raiding NPCs could attack players through walls if they couldn't reach them

Hopefully this year we will find out what happens with that Nintendo lawsuit.
