The Palworld Sakurajima Update introduces exciting new Pal skins, like the iconic and free Sunglasses Cattiva skin, revolutionizing companion customization. This novel cosmetic feature lets trainers add personal flair, transforming their Pals' appearances with cool, stylish accessories. Unlock this fashion-forward gameplay easily with the early-game Pal Dressing Facility.
In the ever-evolving world of Palworld, the year 2026 brought a fresh wave of excitement with the Sakurajima Update. This wasn't just about new lands to explore or fearsome Pals to capture; it introduced a whole new way for players to bond with their companions—through fashion. Imagine your trusty Cattiva, no longer just a hardworking gatherer, but a creature with serious attitude, sporting a pair of sleek sunglasses. That's the magic of skins, a novel cosmetic feature that lets trainers add a personal touch to their Pal's appearance. It's a simple pleasure, really—seeing your favorite Pal strut around the Palpagos Islands looking cooler than ever, whether they're helping you build a base or standing by your side in battle.

All the Glitz and Glamour: Current Skins Available
So, what's in the wardrobe for our Palpagos pals? As of the Sakurajima Update's launch, the boutique is starting with one iconic look. Let's be real, they're starting strong with a classic.
- The Sunglasses Cattiva Skin: This is the one and only unique skin available right now. It's an exclusive makeover for the ever-popular Cattiva, transforming it from a cute, wide-eyed helper into a bona fide cool cat. The best part? You don't have to grind for it or spend a single piece of Gold. This snazzy accessory is unlocked by default and is completely free for all players. It's like a welcome gift from the developers, a little something to kickstart your styling journey.
Looking ahead, the rumor mill is churning. Whispers around the campfire suggest that future skins might be purchasable from wandering Merchants, using either the traditional Gold or the newer Dog Coins introduced in the update. However, Pocket Pair has been tight-lipped, so that's all just speculation for now. Trainers are left eagerly waiting for the next fashion drop!
Building Your Pal's Personal Styling Studio
Alright, you've got the skin in your digital closet, but how do you actually put it on your Pal? You can't just hand them the sunglasses, you know? For that, you need a special place—a Pal Dressing Facility. This handy structure is your one-stop shop for all cosmetic needs.
Getting it is a breeze. It's unlocked right from the get-go in your Technology Menu at Player Level 1. No Technology Points needed! This early availability means you can start customizing almost immediately, which is pretty awesome. Of course, you still need to build the thing. Here’s what it'll cost you:
| Material | Quantity | How to Get It |
|---|---|---|
| Stone | x10 | Mine those plain, grey rocks scattered absolutely everywhere. |
| Paldium Fragments | x10 | Seek out and mine the distinctive blue-glowing Paldium rocks. |
| Build Work | 3000 | Let your Pals handle the construction! Assign a handy Pal to the job. |
Gathering these materials is a walk in the park. Stone is, well, everywhere. And those Paldium Fragments? Just keep your eyes peeled for rocks with a blue shimmer. Before you know it, you'll have a brand-new Dressing Facility ready to go.
The Grand Reveal: Applying and Managing Skins
With your Dressing Facility built, it's showtime! Walk up close to the structure, and an interaction prompt will appear. Step inside (figuratively, of course), and you'll be greeted with an interface showing your Palbox and your active Party.
-
Select Your Model: Choose the specific Pal you want to give a makeover. As of now, if you pick any Pal other than a Cattiva, you might just get a polite, "No outfits available." But for your Cattiva, the magic happens.
-
Browse the Collection: You'll be taken to a screen showing all the skins you own for that Pal. Currently, it's a short list—just the one fabulous Sunglasses option.
-
Make the Change: Simply select the Sunglasses Cattiva skin. Voila! Your Pal will instantly don the new look, ready to hit the town (or the wilderness).
What if you change your mind? Or if you catch another Cattiva and want it to match? The Dressing Facility has you covered. You have to manually change the skin for each Pal individually. Want to go back to the original, au naturel look? Just select the 'Remove Skin' option. This flexibility is gonna be a lifesaver as more skins hopefully roll out in future updates, letting you mix and match styles to your heart's content.

So there you have it. The world of Palworld just got a whole lot more stylish. It's a small touch, but hey, sometimes it's the little things—like a Pal wearing sunglasses while mining ore—that add the most charm to the adventure. Who knows what sartorial splendors the future holds? For now, enjoy making your Cattiva the coolest creature on the islands.
