The Home Sweet Home update for Palworld introduces an experimental PvP toggle specifically for custom and dedicated servers. Unlike the structured Pal Arena, this feature enables open-world combat, allowing players to attack one another anywhere on the map. Base raiding serves as a core mechanic, causing stationed Pals to defend territory while intruders attempt to steal from guild chests. This addition shifts the gameplay loop toward competitive survival, allowing for organic skirmishes rather than restricted duels.
