Massive Palworld Update Is Live with New Raid Boss

A ton of new content dropped in update v0.2.0.6 for Palworld, including the long awaited first raid boss. New armor, crafters, and mechanics bring some much needed quality of life upgrades to the game. Here are the patch notes for Palworld update v0.2.0.6 and the new raid boss.

Raid Boss Update is Live in Palworld

The biggest addition to Palworld is the inclusion of Raid Boss Pals, specifically Bellanoir. They’re summoned at the Summoning Altar and can be two difficulty levels, regular and Extreme. You can’t catch Raid Boss Pals, but they do drop eggs when defeated.

New Items include more Training Manuals, Ability Glass, Multiclimate Undershirt, and the Ancient Technical Manual. You can also find fruit that boosts the corresponding stat when fed to a Pal. The Electric Egg Incubator gives you more options when it comes to breeding. Along with the new items, there were changes to base building, bug fixes, and general balance improvements.

The patch notes also mention future content updates in the works, looking to release in the summer with a new island, new pals, tower bosses, and more set to make waves in the survival game.
