Palworld's devs are very sorry for deploying a patch that 'inadvertently fixed a bug'

Palworld - A player stands in front of Zoe & Grizzbolt in their party.

Botched patches are the worst. Devs spend hours, days or weeks on them, players get excited for them, but when they release they just cause tumult and upset. Ideally, they just mess up something minor, a bagatelle that very few people will notice and that you can rectify in the next patch. But sometimes it's worse. Sometimes, you accidentally fix a bug. You think it only ever happens to other people, and then it happens to you.

That's just what happened with Palworld's most recent patch, which you might remember for buffing the letter F and crashing the nail economy. Alongside all its intended patch notes, a pernicious extra fix snuck in: A bug that had allowed players "to capture the tower boss" ended up "unintentionally fixed."
