For the v0.189 patch update, the Kilima Couture update is themed on Palians finding new ways to express themselves, which is evident in the new character customization options with more makeup styles. But that's not the only glow-up as new Housing additions, including new Flower varieties, a decor set, and furnishing customization options, were included.
Last patch, the developer announced the Zeki's Loyalty Club, which provides Palians with a new way to acquire Palia Coins simply by logging into the game. This membership offering will be available via the Premium Store, and the developer announced its availability in the v0.189 patch.

Social – New Stickers:
- Never miss another callout when you equip Stickers, a free new way to express yourself and communicate on-the-fly with your fellow Palians!
- Players that hop in-game following the update will immediately earn eight free Stickers that can post to chat.
- When identifying which Stickers will be posted to chat, we looked at the most common phrases players used in Palia and custom-built Stickers and messages that match the player's intent.
- While we want to focus on streamlining the most critical communications through the initial eight free Stickers, most Stickers are about enhancing expression.
- There are more than 40 Stickers earned via drops by engaging in various skills, such as Insect Catching, Fishing, etc. will not post to chat, and are intended to be collected.
- Just like Plushes, some Stickers are rarer than others… so you’ll want to check out the Sticker Trading Kiosk in the Underground Black Market to complete your collection.
- Note: You cannot trade the batch of eight Stickers you initially started with.
