Palworld 1.0 adds two major new regions — the floating Sunreach islands and the endgame World Tree — plus 7 new small islands, Ancient Ruins, Watchtowers and a Wildlife Sanctuary overhaul. Here’s what’s in each new area and what you can find there, from the official 1.0 patch notes.
Sunreach — the Floating Islands
- A set of islands floating above Palpagos, kept aloft by the power of Paldium, with an environment unlike the surface and a unique civilization.
- Home to new Pals, new tower bosses, and Soralite ore — a new material that can only be mined here and is used to craft the best new 1.0 weapons.
- Reaching it is much easier with the new Wing Pack glider.
The World Tree — the Endgame
- The towering region at the heart of Palworld’s story, where you face your greatest challenge yet and the mystery of the towers is finally revealed.
- Source of Radiant Gems — used for the new Awakening mechanic — plus Paloxite ore and the Ancient Civilization Relic, all exclusive to this area.
- Guarded by a colossal legendary Pal at the climax of the reworked main story.
A Revamped Overworld
- 7 new small islands across three biomes — volcano, desert and ruins.
- Ancient Ruins scattered across the world, with exploration minigames that reward schematics.
- Watchtowers added as new fast-travel points.
- New settlements at the Bamboo Groves, Snowy Mountains, Sakurajima and Sunreach, each with new NPCs and sub-missions.
- Increased ore distribution in the overworld, opening up more viable base locations.
Wildlife Sanctuary Overhaul
The three Wildlife Sanctuaries — previously small islands — are now reworked as protected conservation areas. Each has its own unique scenery, Pals found nowhere else, rare materials and powerful bosses. Inside, defense drones with searchlights patrol for intruders, so you can sneak in quietly or go in loud.

FAQ
What are the new areas in Palworld 1.0?
The two major new regions are Sunreach (floating sky islands with Soralite ore) and the World Tree (the endgame region with Radiant Gems and Paloxite). 1.0 also adds 7 small islands, Ancient Ruins and Watchtowers.
How do I get to Sunreach?
Sunreach floats above Palpagos, so you reach it by flying — the new Wing Pack glider or a fast flying mount. It holds new Pals, tower bosses and Soralite ore.
