Palworld’s 30% Steam Summer Sale before version 1.0
Palworld entered Steam’s 2026 Summer Sale at a 30% discount, which Pocketpair described as the game’s largest reduction at that time. The promotion began on June 25, two weeks before Palworld left Early Access with version 1.0 on July 10. The seasonal sale ended on July 9 and the discount below is historical.

A sale timed before the full release
Pocketpair used the announcement to connect the 30% offer with the approaching 1.0 launch. The official release followed on July 10 with new Pals, new regions, the World Tree and a larger content update. Buyers during the sale received the same game licence; version 1.0 arrived as the next stage of the existing Palworld release rather than a separate product purchase.
Other Pocketpair titles were highlighted
The Steam post also pointed to discounts across the publisher’s catalogue, including the pirate survival game Windrose and Pocketpair’s earlier survival title Craftopia. It linked several individual store pages instead of promising one universal percentage for every game. Regional prices, taxes and the interaction between bundle and product discounts therefore depended on the user’s Steam account.
The official sale window
Valve’s Summer Sale support page lists the event from June 25 at 10:00 PDT through July 9 at 10:00 PDT. That calendar resolves the timing more reliably than copied snippets or local time-zone labels. Any current Palworld price should be checked on its live store page because the 30% promotion was not permanent.
What changed after the announcement
Palworld is no longer in the pre-1.0 state described by the June post. Pocketpair released version 1.0 on July 10, and later coverage reviewed the full-release build rather than the Early Access version sold during the event. Players returning now should read the current changelog and system notes instead of treating this sale article as a guide to the latest content.
Pocketpair published the June 25 sale announcement through Palworld’s official Steam News feed, while the live store now reflects post-sale pricing and the version 1.0 release.
