Webkinz Next R1.6 Release Notes

Our first release of 2021 brings our popular Winterfest event to new Webkinz along with two room themes and some exciting features that could really surprise you!
 
 
Winterfest
 
 
Winterfest has arrived! Collect up to five snowflakes a day for exciting winter prizes, including fun quilt floor tiles and the all-new Polarberry Bush from which you can harvest Polarberries!
 
 

 
 

We’ve taken Winterfest up a notch with two side events. First, every snowflake you catch also gives you… a snowflake! This new crafting material can be used to create your very own Snow Fort! This recipe is available from now until January 31st on the Carpenter’s Workbench (available in the W-Shop).
 
 

 
 
Second, we have an all-new type of challenge that can get you an amazing winter prize…
 
 

Community Challenges
 
 

Working on challenges is fun… working together is AWESOME! We’ve added challenges where everyone works together on a single goal. If the goal is reached, everyone who participates wins! Whether you contribute just a bit or a whole lot, you’re doing your part.
 
 

 
 

As our first Community Challenge, we need you to… collect snowflakes! Yes, just enjoy Winterfest and you could win this spectacular Ice Pond.
 
 

 
 
Photo Mode
 
 

Take screenshots in Webkinz like never before! Get the angle you want and zoom into your favorite pet to get the perfect photo and save it to your PC or mobile device to share with friends or online. We can’t wait to see your best photos!
 
 


 

 
 
New Room Themes
 
 

Two of the most popular Classic themes have made their way to Webkinz Next!
 
 
The Winter Theme is perfect for these cold months and appears here in all its icy glory. This theme is in the W-Shop now for Kinzcash.

 
 

 
 
For those who love our premium themes, we have brought over the beautiful Homespun Theme. So warm and cozy, this theme looks great in any home.
 
 


 
 
Crafting Bags in the Arcade Shop
 
 

We’ve heard that some players are having a hard time getting the crafting materials they need. So for a limited time we’ve added Crafting Bags in the Arcade Shop for just 100 Game Tickets each. Now playing your favorite games can help you out even more!
 
 


 
 
Too Cold for Flowers in Kinzville
 
 

The snowy weather has put a stop to flowers growing in Kinzville, but don’t worry, they’ll be back in the spring. We’ve also heard that a certain day coming in February might warm the ground enough for some very special flowers to appear…

    The polarberry plant is glitched. If you have more than one, and try to put them in your yard, they seem to stack overtop each other, so only one shows up. You can’t separate them.

    Wow! Love the update. So excited.

    Dear Sally, I don’t understand why we can’t have pretty snowflakes for Webkinz Classic and the cool plant that will bloom something special for Vday ???

  4. Gamerdude58 says:

    I have not seen a single snowflake go by for an hour worth of gameplay (rennovating my house & just walking around). Is there something I am missing, like going into town to find them? Thanks for the help!

  5. mannm9 says:

    Where do you find the snow fort in the work bench? I’m not seeing it anywhere.

  6. kkat says:

    Where do I find the vehicles? And when will the Mac version be released? There’s not a lot to do on the tablet app.

    what the heck is Rl.6 please? this i hope will be in classic, it is awesome. I FOR ONE, CANNOT CONSIDER PLAYING THE NEW VERSION AS IT MAKES ME ILL–there is apparently some 3-D element, i cannot watch 3-D movies & being a car passenger can make me very sick (good thing i drive ;) best, k.

    • HolyGround says:

      I can somewhat agree with you, looking at the 3D elements of the game in motion and such gives me a headache for whatever the reason. Fortunately that does not happen when I play webkinz classic so I am glad for that. Sadly I won’t be joining the webkinz next for that reason

  8. WeeBonnieMissMaggie says:

    Where in the W-Shop is the Carpenter’s Workbench?

  9. Resonatingthunder says:

    Photo Mode looks so cool. I have a feeling I’ll be using it a lot. And that Ice Pond is gorgeous. I hope new pets are added soon, I’ve seen someone with a cow, and one of my friends has a pig! (How!?)

  10. JediMom says:

    I can’t find the workbenches in the W shop. Any help please and thank you. :)
