• Palworld does not have a native cross-save option, but there is a way you can move your Xbox Game Pass save to Steam easily.
  • To start the process, you will need an extractor that allows you to extract your Xbox save to a zip file.
  • You can copy the saved files from the zip and paste them into your Palworld Steam SavedGames folder to load your Xbox progression.

As a fan of survival games, when Palworld first dropped, I immediately got an Xbox Game Pass to get my hands on it. While playing the Xbox version was fun, there were some limitations that made me when to want to switch to Steam. When my friends got Palworld on the latter, I just knew I had to make the plunge. Although Palworld doesn’t officially come with cross-save, we have a solution for all the Xbox Game Pass players who want to move their save to their Steam version. So keep reading as we show you how to do exactly that. So, let’s begin.

1.Extract the Xbox Game Pass Save File

Since the Xbox app doesn’t show you the save file location of its games, we will have to perform an extra step. For starters, you will need to locate and extract the save file from its location. To do that, ensure you have Palworld downloaded and then proceed below.

  • Head on over here and download the “xgp-save-extractor.exe ” application.

  • Now, run the app and wait till it detects and creates a zip file for your Xbox save automatically.

  • Now, open the zip file and copy the folders to a separate location for later.

  • Download Save Extractor

  • Run the Application

  • Copy the Save Files

2.Move the Save File to the Directory

Note: You will have to open Palworld on Steam and create a new world to create the ID number below on your Saved Games folder. Make sure you place the files in the right directory.

It is now time to move over our copied folders to the proper directory. Follow the steps below to do so:

  • Press “ Windows+R” together, type out “ %localappdata%,” and click OK .

  • Now, go to “ Pal > Saved > SaveGames ” until you reach a folder with an “ ID (I.E.: 76561198204451011) “. This is the folder associated with your Steam ID.

  • Once you locate the folder, simply paste the files you copied here.

  • Run Localappdata

  • Go to Pal Folder

  • Locate Folder with ID and Paste Here

3.Launch Palworld on Steam

With that done, you are all set to load up the copied Xbox save file on Steam. Just open up the Palworld Steam version and locate the world with your old save file name. You can also change world settings for the world or simply start the world with all of your progress intact.

Select the pre saved world and play - 1

  • Pocketpair has announced a new major update for Palworld, set to release this December.
  • This expansion will introduce a massive new island, six times larger than Sakurajima, filled with challenges and mysteries.
  • This update will lay the foundation for the massive Terraria x Palworld collaboration for 2025.

Right after announcing a massive collaboration with Terraria , Pocketpair has shared more about its upcoming expansion update. Palworld’s next major update coming this December will bring a big island, new pals, and lots of new challenges.

In a post on X, Palworld’s official account says, “The size of the new island is about six times more than Sakurajima!!!.” With that, they also suggest that the island will be the largest, harshest, and most mysterious one so far. After the massive Sakurajima update ( review ) , this will be Palworld’s major content expansion. The game is also going through a 25% discount for players who want to get the game and prepare for the upcoming update.

🚨 Major update coming in December!🚨 Survive on the largest, harshest, and most mysterious new island in Palworld! The size of the new island is about six times more than Sakurajima!!! Palworld is also currently 25% off! A perfect time to prepare for the upcoming update! Don’t… pic.twitter.com/f2AwDjNGXt — Palworld (@Palworld_EN) November 28, 2024

With Sakurajima, we got a lot of new pals , a unique island, and some fresh exploration content. However, the island itself was small and did not meet the expectations of many players. Pocketpair is promising a better island update with the upcoming expansion which means players can expect more challenges.

Ever since Pocketpair unveiled Palworld, it has been carrying the tag of ‘Pokemon with guns’. However, from the first day of early access, we all have witnessed the differences and fun of Palworld as an individual game. The game did massive in terms of sales and player numbers; beating games like CS2 and Dota 2.
