Okay, so, I gotta share this whole mess with you guys about trying to update Palworld on my Xbox. It was a whole thing, let me tell you.

First off, I noticed my game was being a real pain. Like, super buggy and just not running right. I was stuck on some old version, 0.0.49074.0, I think it was. I saw some folks online saying there was an update, and that it fixes a bunch of problems. So, naturally, I’m thinking, “Great, I’ll just update it.” Easy, right? Wrong.
I tried everything. I went into my games library, looked for Palworld, and… nothing. No update button, no “check for updates,” zip. Nada. It was like the update didn’t even exist. I even uninstalled the whole game and reinstalled it. Still nothing! I was starting to get seriously annoyed.
Then I dove into the depths of the internet, because what else was I going to do? I was determined to figure this out. I read through a bunch of forum posts and articles. Some people were saying to check the Xbox app itself, make sure that’s up to date. Others were going on about repairing and resetting the Xbox app. Lots of stuff to try.
Here’s what I tried doing:
- Checked for Xbox app updates.
- Repaired the Xbox app.
- Reset the Xbox app.
And guess what? Resetting the Xbox app actually did the trick! I opened the app settings and there were options to repair and reset. After I did that, I went back to the Palworld page in my library, and bam! The update button was there, shining like a beacon of hope.
I clicked that update button so fast, you wouldn’t believe it. The game finally started updating. It took a little while, but it was worth it. The new version is so much better. Less bugs, runs smoother, it’s like a whole new game.

So, yeah, that was my adventure with the Palworld update. If you’re having trouble, definitely try updating and resetting the Xbox app. It might just save you a whole lot of frustration. Hope this helps someone out there!
