Neopets is making a comeback on consoles with the release of Neopets: Mega Mini Games Collection in March 2026, featuring 25 updated classic minigames, a new game, DLC, seasonal events, and online leaderboards, available for pre-order on the eShop from January 15, 2026.
Neopets, the virtual pet website that gained popularity in the early years of the internet, is under new management and planning a comeback. The CEO of World of Neopia, the team that bought Neopets for $4 million, aims to restore and modernize the game's features, including the discontinued minigames. While acknowledging the challenges of competing in today's gaming landscape, the CEO believes Neopets' unique selling point is its nostalgic appeal and the ability to offer a different way of playing games. The team is on a "reactivation campaign" to win back players and plans to license intellectual property for merchandise and develop new games. Additionally, a 3D simulator game called World of Neopets is set to launch in 2024, while the original Neopets website will continue to be available for long-term play.
Neopets, the popular virtual pet website, is entering a "new era" with the launch of a unified website and the revival of old Flash games using the Ruffle emulator. Over 50 games will be brought back starting July 25th, with plans to convert many to HTML5 in the long term. Neopets is also introducing a new mobile game called World of Neopets, set to launch next year. The website's management has undergone changes, with Neopets becoming an independent company called World of Neopia, Inc. The team promises regular updates, AMAs, and a brand ambassador program in the coming months.
