Hi,

Yes it does. It runs just fine with 8.0.x code. This may help,

@kwasidarko, the PA-200 units should handle PAN-OS 8.0.2 just fine.

If there were any issues, they would always be available in the latest release notes inside the known issues area.

Here is a link to PAN-OS 8.0.2 release notes:

As far as the latest version.. that is PAN-OS 8.0.5, which was released last month. please look at the 8.0.5 release notes here:

As far as being on the fence for a new version.. always look at the release notes, the new features, as well as the known issues area just to make sure that you are not going to run into any issues with that version.

Hope this helps.
