I sprinted back to base as the sun dipped below the ridge, tech points blinking like distant beacons. You’ve felt the scrape of progress: one more level, one more blueprint, and still the list grows. The tech tree was a locked vault.
I’ve chased every research tier since Palworld’s 1.0 launch, and I’ll tell you how I cleared the backlog, which saddles demand captured Pals, and where the hidden Ancient points matter. I write guides, test builds, and read pockets of theorycraft on Steam and Reddit so you don’t waste time grinding the wrong tier.
Most player bases have a scatter of half-finished benches. How to unlock all new Technologies in Palworld 1.0
Short version: level cap rose from 65 to 80 in the full release, and you gain 15 new research levels. Points are the baseline cost for nearly everything; some items demand captured Pals or Ancient Technology Points. I’ll list every new tech by level and add quick notes so you can prioritize what matters for your build—farming, defense, or fast travel.
How do I unlock technologies past level 65 in Palworld 1.0?
Reach player level 66 through 80 and spend Technology Points (TP) or Ancient Technology Points (ATP) as listed. Some blueprints also require having captured specific Pals—those saddle recipes always list the Pal name.
Do I need captured Pals to research saddles?
Yes. Saddle blueprints that name a Pal require you to have that Pal captured; the tech cost is separate from the capture requirement.

Two short strategy notes from my playtests: spend Ancient Technology Points on buildings that multiply resource income (Soralite Quarry, Ancient Hatchery) before cosmetic or single-use gear. If you care about mobility, the Wing Pack and Triple Jump Boots are the fastest path to map control.
The new tech tree was a roadmap, and each new technology is a key that opens a lane of choices. Will your next research be a weapon, a base boost, or the saddle that changes how you move across the map?
