While not too much is known about Palworld's Home Sweet Home update, it's fairly safe to expect some building improvements, and from the teaser trailer, it's already been shown that players will be able to paint/recolor their building pieces. With Home Sweet Home dropping on the 17th of December 2025 (late on the 16th in the USA), players will be wondering what time of day it will be released.

With the Tides of Terraria update, Palworld Players can now recruit Zoe and her Grizzbolt as an ally by completing a new quest chain.

Expected Release Time For Palworld's Home Sweet Home Update

There is no official release time for Palworld's Home Sweet Home update, but by looking at the release times for past updates to Palworld, it's possible to make a good estimate.

Using patch charts on SteamDB, most of the recent Palworld updates, including major releases such as Tides of Terraria, seem to have come out at 03:00 GMT (22:00 EST). Take this with a grain of salt, as another major update came out at 02:00 GMT in 2024, and there are a few other outliers. Either way, players can expect to get their hands on Home Sweet Home around this time of day.

As Palworld is made by a Japanese development team, Pocketpair, a noon release in Japan makes sense.

Unfortunately, not too much is known about the Home Sweet Home update, so players will have to jump into the action to find out. From the teaser trailer, however, an ULTRAKILL crossover is confirmed, following in the footsteps of the Terraria crossover, which introduced new islands.

As the name of the free expansion suggests, the emphasis is likely on bases and building. Players will be able to paint and recolor building pieces, and eagle-eyed fans believe they spotted new triangle pieces, which were heavily requested to help with construction.
