Ella McWoof here! With your help, I’ve been sniffing around for some more information about the secret project known only as “Webkinz X”.
Great news, fellow detectives! I’ve uncovered the top secret documents from Ganz headquarters that explains everything!
I’ll be posting these discovered documents right here in my column starting TODAY!
Here now is the first part of my EXCLUSIVE SCOOP!
Over the past 10 years, Webkinz World has continued to grow and evolve. Webkinz X is the next step in that evolution, as we update some important elements in the game to help take it to the next level!
The main goal of Webkinz X is to make your pets feel more alive and interactive, and to make them more central to the way you play. Taking care of your pets has always been a part of Webkinz World, so we wanted to improve upon this idea, making it both more important AND more rewarding.
Webkinz X will see an update to your pet’s meters, so that they will now look like this:
While the Happiness and Hunger meters remain, instead of Health you will instead need to watch your pet’s Energy. The more things you do with your pet, the happier they will get. However, they will also get hungrier and get tired faster. You will still be able to feed, bathe, groom, and exercise your pets to give them an Energy boost, but eventually your pet will need to sleep in order to get their Energy back. However, all you’ll need to do is give them a nap in any bed, and after a few minutes, they will once again be ready to play!
While these meters will move up and down a lot more as you play, it will only be for your active pet. Once you give one pet a nap, you can simply switch to another and continue to play with them instead!
Feeding your pets will also be more realistic, as we’re updating all of the foods so that big meals will fill them up faster, while smaller snacks will only give them a bit of a boost. However, this also means that your pets won’t want to eat a big meal when they’re almost full. So now you’ll need to be more selective when choosing what to serve your pets!
Stay tuned to my column on Saturday, June 13th and I’ll reveal MORE about filling the Pet Care Heart!
So, fellow detectives, what do YOU think about Webkinz X so far? Let me know in the comments below!
I sorta like this idea, but I’m not X-acly sure. It looks kinda…. Um…. Different.
Interesting info. I still want to know what happens with my pet who gets out of bed after I put him in. And would someone please fix the problem accessing the mobile app and also the glitch with wacky bingo. I’m sure many would appreciate if you could do that. Thanks.
Very cool!
Weirdness! That is going to take some getting used to! Speaking of meters, has anyone noticed that the pet’s health goes down for every item you buy at the W-Shop?
Yes, and happiness and my pets’ hunger drops to THREE! :( I have to feed them and feed them and their health usually stays down, anyway. Yawning?! I have not seen that!
It happens to me when I buy a food item (never really do ’cause most my inventory is food :P) It always drops there hunger to 1 and when I exit out of the W-shop it is back to what they were at before. Ganz is this a glitch? ~webkinzrockz131~
Yup!! It happens to me too! :O I one time for some reason could feed my pet so I fed her some of the things she had to eat for a challenge…. :P -k19r P.S. TEEN BEACH 2 COMES OUT IN 13 MORE DAYS :D CAN I HEAR A WOO WOO?!!
Like I could feed her in the W store when other times you can’t… :/ -k19r
I can’t say I hate this idea! It will definitely encourage webkinz players to give your pet the care they deserve. And more sleep! Which i’m bad about. I’ve already noticed that my pets are yawning now, and that they get hungrier faster. So this post is really answering some questions I’ve been having. Wonder what else Webkinz X will bring!
Oooh! I’m so excited to find out more!
What if you have like 20 pets….. will we not be able to use them if they don’t get fed or get enough energy? :(
Yay I can’t wait! The new feeding system sounds awesome and realistic!!!!! Love the new meters so we can keep an eye on our pet! Thanks once again, Ganz. You’re doing a WONDERFUL job! :D ~Spokanegirl7
Sweeeeeetttt! Looks nice and fun! I don’t know why on earth I worried at first! FOR ANYONE WHO IS WORRING ABOUT WEBKINZ X: Don’t worry! Ganz promised us that they will keep the stuff we love. And if you love Webkinz, you’ll love Webkinz X! FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE EEEEXCCCIIITTTEEEDDD FOR WEBKINZ X: I can’t wait, can you???! It sounds totes awesomesauce! :) (quote coming up) “Guess who’s ready to party??!” (from ‘Austin and Ally”, Trish says it) -k19r P.S. TEEN BEACH 2 COMES OUT IN 15 MORE DAYS :D CAN I HEAR A WOO WOO?!!
