Palworld update history
43 patches since September 2024. Between them they contain 1013 individual changes, and 66 of those state a number — about 7%. The other 947 say "increased", "reduced" or "adjusted" and leave you to guess by how much. That is the gap these pages fill.

Why the numbers are missing
Not out of malice — patch notes are written for players, and “increased the amount of World Tree Holy Water obtained from Pals” is readable in a way that “50% for 1–3 became 75% for 2–4” is not. But if you are deciding whether a farm is now worth an hour of your evening, the second version is the one you need, and it only exists in the data tables.
Where we hold both builds either side of a patch, the patch page carries the measured diff next to the official note. Where we do not, it says so and links to the announcement.
Where these come from
The patch list is Pocketpair’s own Steam announcements, pulled from Steam’s news API. Their words stay theirs: these pages quote only what they are commenting on and link to the full announcement every time. The measured changes are ours, computed by comparing the game’s data tables from one build to the next.
Every recorded change
The list above is organised by patch. This is the same data organised by what actually moved — every field paldb has watched change between game builds, with the table it came from. It grows with each build we archive, and it is the only place these numbers exist: Pocketpair’s notes describe the changes, the files measure them.

paldb has retained a full snapshot of 2 game builds so far. Snapshots taken before the field-level diff engine recorded that a value changed without keeping both sides, and those rows are shown with the values blank rather than guessed.
The patches tell one more story: several changed mechanics that are the subject of Nintendo’s patent case against Pocketpair — the dated timeline lives on its own page, and from here on the change explorer measures exactly what each patch moved.
