Palworld update 0.4.14 patch notes: Spring Festival skins, balancing, and fixes

Developer Pocketpair has released update v0.4.14 for Palworld on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on January 24, 2025, adding Spring Festival skins for five Pals to celebrate the Lunar New Year.

In addition, some balance adjustments and fixes have been applied. Pals should now always attack the nearest enemy target after being summoned, while the efficiency of large Pals that have been assigned to work in a base has been increased. They can now go through narrow passages, making it less likely that they collide with objects or ceilings and get stuck. Batteries received a big buff, being able to store much more energy now.
