Bug or no bug, Palworld’s egg incubator serves as an essential part of the overall experience since players use the so-called “Ancient Technology” to hatch Pal eggs.
When all is working as intended, the hatching process is as simple as interacting with the machine, and then removing an egg from the inventory to the incubator. Waiting for the Pal egg to hatch marks the next step, helped by the start of a countdown timer.
