Where to level up your base in Palworld

When you want to level up your base in Palworld, simply head to your Pal Box located in the center of you base. Then hit the V key to bring up the upgrade window. On this window you will see your current base level as well as what you need to build in order to upgrade your base to the next level.

Once you have successfully built everything it requires, simply click the Build Upgrade button and it will level up your base. Keep in mind you won’t receive your second base until you reach Base Level 10, but you will unlock more slots at your base to put your Pals to work.
