Palworld's latest update deleting multiplayer progress on Xbox, developer warns
Palworld developer Pocketpair has warned players on Xbox not to load up their multiplayer saves following reports that doing so will result in all current progress being lost.
Palworld's latest patch — which adds a new raid against a powerful evil entity known as Bellanoir — launched for Steam last week, and arrived on Xbox earlier today. Soon after its console debut, Pocketpair confirmed the update was preventing players from placing their eggs inside an incubator — but it's now clear the update has launched with considerably more dramatic issues.
In a post on social media, Pocketpair acknowledged an issue where «multiplayer player save data is not being loaded correctly when multiplayer save data from an older version is loaded». Player responses beneath the post indicate the bug is, more specifically, causing all progress to be lost on loading a save, with some suggestion the issue might also affect solo play too.

«We are really sorry for this inconvenience,» Pocketpair's message concludes, «and ask that you try to not load any multiplayer data until this fix is applied soon. Thank you.»
