Today we are proud to announce the launch of a new Webkinz! It’s a whole new world to play alongside the rebranded Webkinz Classic! This new version was built from the ground up to work the same on all platforms with the latest technologies. Now you’ll have two great ways to plays! Just login with your existing Webkinz user name and password and we’ll get you all set up! Get all of the details here: https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/join-the-family/
Google Play, iOS and Windows Store versions available now!
Can we use original Webkinz plush codes for this new version? The code I have is much shorter than what is required in the new adoption center. Just curious before I pay money to adopt a new pet
No. The two games are completely separate
I really like the new game. I will continue to play classic as well. Happy that there are more fun webkinz things to do!
Ok so how to get I a code to adopt a new pet? Is it done the same way as the original webkinz? from the ganz store?
Is Ganz planning on phasing out what they are now calling “Classic Webkinz”?
No
Is the golden retriever going to be for sale again soon? I saw it was available around when I first got the app and I’d really like to adopt one.
Okay, after playing the game for a little, I do like it better now! The graphics aren’t amazing, but they’re not really horrible either. They’re okay. The game itself is fun so far! I’m interested to see if you make plush for this game line.. although I feel bad that Webkinz Classic might not be getting the plush line we’ve been waiting for. Everyone wants plush for the game we’ve been playing- not a new game that came up out of the blue. Just sayin, since the rumors that the plush will be for this game! And I’m glad to know that Webkinz “Classic” is still around. Still don’t like how a very different game stole the name of Webkinz, but oh well.. I look forward to seeing many updates to making the app better, and news on the plush.
I just wanted to leave my own comment. I’ve played for almost 12 years at this point. I’ve seen Webkinz gradually decline in popularity. Every store used to sell the plushies and there used to be tons of odd merchandise here and there. However, I still continued to play when I could. I designed Webkinz as a kid, and then I finally got to have one get in the game. That was one of the best moments of my life. I still play. I saw this game on the home page for Webkinz, and checked it out. Needless to say, I’m hooked already. While I’m sure anyone can see it’s a little rough around the edges, I think it can be great. I don’t even mind some things like the limited Arcade plays, for example, since other pet sites have them too. Plus, I’m glad that you can earn Diamonds, as opposed to them being pay only. I know there have been fans here that don’t care for this game, have their own issues with it, or simply prefer Webkinz Classic, and that’s okay. I’m just happy you guys are still making an effort. I’m glad Webkinz is still going.
Where do we purchase vehicles, or are they prizes? Also, for those of us who weren’t able to play until recently because we were waiting for the Windows app, could you please extend the date that Halloween items can be purchased? We are limited to the number of times we can play the games each day for Webkinz cash, and it takes time to complete the challenges with cash rewards for the same reason.
Will the this new game be done for maintenance long? I have been trying for a couple of hours to get in. Nothing yet.
Typo… I meant DOWN for maintenance long? Sorry.
It’s back up but I still can’t understand certain parts. A tutorial would be helpful.
So I tried out the new Webkinz app, and there’s some really great and fun things about it! I like the 3D houses, baby animals, new room decor, bright colors, plenty of pets to chat with, and new challenges. I think if you linked even just a small part of it up to the Classic Webkinz, it might be more appealing to the Classic Webkinz players. It can pretty hard to start new at a game when you have played it for awhile or spent money on it. But, if there were something that players could feel like their Classic account could benefit from playing, I think it might be more appealing to them. (I honestly would play the app more if it were somewhat linked up to my Classic account.) But, the app was really cute and fun! It would be nice if you made a mac version, as there’s some many small buttons to push on a small phone. Keep up the great work, Webkinz! :)
