Palworld PS5 Save File Bug Fix Expected July 10

Palworld on PlayStation 5 has been plagued by a save game corruption bug caused by an excessive number of save files, leading to system errors and data loss for players. Developer Pocketpair identified that having more than ten save files triggers backend PS5 system errors, resulting in corrupted or lost progress, with specific error codes CE-100022-5 and CE-100096-6 indicating severe corruption. Although a patch scheduled for July 10, 2025, will limit save files to a maximum of ten and improve overall save system stability to prevent future issues, players who have already encountered the critical errors will need to delete all their save files to avoid recurring problems. Pocketpair has acknowledged responsibility for the bug and apologized to players, emphasizing that while the patch will stop new corruption, it cannot repair existing corrupted save data. This fix may bring relief to many, but some dedicated PS5 players face the difficult choice of losing their current progress to continue playing. The update is highly anticipated as it aims to resolve a frustrating technical issue that has marred the experience for Palworld fans on PS5.
