Patch 0.183 and new content in Palia: What the future holds
08/12/2024 - In Palia's latest dev blog, the development team provides insights into upcoming updates, including improvements to decoration systems, the introduction of the Elderwood adventure zone and new quality improvements.
The latest dev blog from Palia provides players with exciting insights into the future development of the game. With a special focus on creativity and player experience, numerous adjustments and new content have been announced to expand and improve the game world.
Since the introduction of the house tours as part of the Summer Serenade update, the development team has received valuable feedback from the community. Players have demonstrated their creativity in an impressive way by completing over a million house tours within the first 24 hours. The team wants to encourage this creative energy further and is therefore planning to introduce a "featuring" system to make it easier for players to make their designs accessible to a wider audience.
Another important topic is the increase in decoration limits. Although there are technical challenges in terms of performance and stability, the team is working hard to extend the limits for decorations. A new optimization system makes it possible to remove the limits for certain decoration elements, such as building blocks. In addition, the number of flowers that can be placed will be increased from 500 to 1,000. These changes are intended to give players more freedom in designing their home plots.
The upcoming patch 0.183, also known as "Sunset Soiree", will bring further improvements. These include an often-requested quality feature that allows players to quickly browse specific items in the workbench and storage. It also introduces "Potato Pods", collectible plush figures that will be available through a randomized system. Collecting and trading these figures will be facilitated by a future trading system.
In terms of new game content, the team announced the introduction of the new Elderwood Adventure Zone. This zone will be a challenging expansion of the game world and will offer new quests, gameplay elements and many hours of adventure. Elderwood is expected to be released in early 2025, but the development team is planning several smaller updates until then to continuously improve the game experience.
What is the "Featuring" system in Palia?
The "Featuring" system will allow players to share their home plots more easily with other players and make their designs more visible.
What improvements will patch 0.183 bring?
Patch 0.183, also known as "Sunset Soiree", brings an extended search function for workbenches and storage facilities as well as the introduction of collectable "Potato Pods".
When will the new Elderwood adventure zone be available?
Elderwood is expected to be released in early 2025 and offers new quests and gameplay elements.
How many flowers can be placed on a home plot?
After the update, it will be possible to place up to 1,000 flowers on a home plot.
Will there be a trading system in Palia?
Yes, a trading system is planned for a future update, which can be used not only for Potato Pods, but also for other items.
