Introducing the all-new Webkinz.
In 2005 Ganz introduced Webkinz and changed the world of toys forever. With a line of lovable plush and an exciting online world that brought the toys to life, Webkinz has been enjoyed by millions of kids, teens, and parents around the world.
Now we’re going to do it all over again. An exciting new Webkinz World, created from the ground up for a new generation of players and devices with tons of improvements and exciting new features…
NEW PETS
Pets in Webkinz are now better than ever! They look better and move better, with richer emotions. And your pet goes with you everywhere! Even when you play games at the arcade your pet will be with you to cheer you on.
INTRODUCING… BABIES!
Yes, we did it. Now your pets can combine their Sparks to create all new baby pets! Babies combine features of their parents and may also get unique colors and features all their own.
Every baby has rarity as well. Will yours be a rare or super-rare?
Then bring your baby home and care for it. Feed it, sing to it, play with it… even clean up after it.
Your baby will also make requests. Watch for Growth Moment requests… complete enough of these and your baby will grow (if you’d like) into a Kid Pet… then into a Full Grown Pet with Sparks of its own! Combine pets through the generations to create incredible – and super cute – babies. With billions of combinations, how will your baby look?
NEW MY HOME
Webkinz has always had the most exciting home-building system in any virtual world, and now it’s even better!
First, it’s an actual home! All your rooms are connected, with yards automatically added as your family grows. So now your windows show what’s outside and doors can be added, moved, and changed! No need to load your home map. Jump between rooms with a simple zoom out!
And how about editing? Every item can be placed where you want and how you want. Is there room on the table for one more glass? Place it! Place items on fireplace mantles, dressers, kitchen counters – even shelves! Are you an advanced decorator? Then turn on our all-new Advanced Mode and we’ll turn off the grid for perfect item placement and full item rotation!
NEW DRESS MY PET
Forget flat clothing, now all of our clothing is fully 3D and can be enjoyed from any angle! Expand your options with backpacks, necklaces, and bracelets.
And you’ll always see your pet dressed – in the dock, in Kinzville, even in games – with no restrictions on when or where your pet can change their clothes!
ALWAYS SOCIAL
In Original Webkinz hanging with other players and chatting were restricted to only a few areas. In the new Webkinz we’re always social. Chat anywhere, visit your friends at any time and invite them to join you anywhere, not just your home.
NEW KINZVILLE ACADEMY
Time for Class! Complete three classes and a pop quiz each day to earn school ribbons.
Exchange these ribbons for cool prizes your pet can wear or decorate with, or trade them in for skill cards that change the game itself in interesting ways.
NEW CURIO SHOP AND GEM MINING
Collect rare items and turn in your Wish Tokens for exclusives and other special prizes, and then head to our immersive mine and hunt for gems with other players!
Be sure to take a look around and explore the waterfall, the mushroom garden, and more. Complete your collection to earn the fabled Crown of Wonder!
INTRODUCING CRAFTING
Collect materials and use different crafting tables to create cool clothing and items for your pet.
SEASONS
Earn Season Points by completing tasks to collect prizes — get rewarded just for playing the game! Unlock the premium rewards level with a Season Pass and collect even more prizes.
ONE GAME FOR EVERYONE
However you like to play – on your PC, on a phone or on an iPad – you’ll always be playing the exact same game with the same items and same events!
A WHOLE NEW WORLD
The new Webkinz is completely new. Right now you’ll be getting in on the ground floor and watching our new game blossom and grow! It truly is an exciting time to play!
WHAT ABOUT THE ORIGINAL WEBKINZ?
Original Webkinz is now Webkinz Classic! We love Webkinz Classic as much as you and we will be supporting the game with all of the new pets, new room themes, fun events and exciting prizes that you’ve loved all these years. With the Webkinz Classic Desktop App, PC and Mac players will be able to enjoy Webkinz Classic for years to come!
EASY TO JOIN
If you play the Webkinz Classic, you’re already signed up! That’s right, download Webkinz today and log in with your existing Webkinz User Name and Password and we’ll get you all set up to play!
So come, Join the Family! Download Webkinz on PC, iOS or Android (MacOS coming soon) and begin a new journey of fun, family and play!
Can I not play it as a website like the original webkinz? It sounds really fun but I’m not allowed to have my computer time on my parents phone and they wouldn’t let me download the app. So the only way I can play it is on the computer.
i think they are just waiting on Microsoft to release it. Then you download it like you would the desktop app.
Does this mean that our current Webkinz Classic will be “transferred”–all our rooms and pets–to this new version?
No. Webkinz Classic and new Webkinz are two separate games. You have the option to use the same user name and password just to make your login easier to remember.
Aw too bad. Eh, I do have a lot of pets on my classic account though so throwing breeding into the mix would probably have slowed done my account a lot. XD
What’s going to happen after December when the Webkinz Classic can no longer be played online because flash player will no longer be supported. Will this mean that we must move the Webkinz Classis to the pc (or will it even work on our PC’s) along with this NEW Webkinz? Can they both be played on the pc. Also I never moved from online Webkinz to Desktop. I prefer online playing. If I move it to my desktop will I loose any of my stuff on Classic? Is there going to be a way to cont. play ONLINE with Classic on a new platform that will not use Flash Player? These answers really need to be addressed. Cannot seem to get Ganz to answer via email. I’m sure players are going to be upset if they cannot access Classic on the web anymore after Dec. 31st because Flash Player will no longer be able to be used. Someone please clear up this stuff before we have yet another NEW Webkinz to deal with.
Webkinz Classic is NOT going away at the end of the year. You can read our earlier announcement about this here: https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/announcements/update-on-flash-end-of-life/
My device isn’t compatible with this version. That stinks. Wish it would say why.
I sure hope that this new game is going to work the same way as what Amazing World did when all players would link-up their Webkinz World account to the one in Amazing World and every once in a while it’d sent cool stuff you’d either have to unlock and/or make/craft to your Webkinz World account.
Does that mean that i can’t play it yet on my Mac?
Okay….really not sure how I feel about this. I just wish that Ganz had taken the time and money spent on this “new” Webkinz, and fixed the original Webkinz game. There are so many issues that really need fixing now! My KinzPost is not working…for the 2nd time in a little over a month! So many items that once worked, like the Time Machine from the Wish Tokens. At one time, your pet could sit in it and it would make a sound and move upward. Now your pet can’t even sit in it. All you can do is “look” at it. I know Ganz has said that the original Webkinz World game will continue to run, but I’m not sure I believe that. Fix the original WW first! Then bring out this “new” version. Not really sure just “why” Webkinz “needs” a new version. Please just fix the original Webkinz! Also, please explain just WHY this new game is getting all the special things that we have begged for, for YEARS, on the original Webkinz? Like all the decorating ability, the moving doors, windows that you can see out of, and clothes that look better on our pets. Having baby Webkinz sounds nice, but not the combining pets to make more. That is just a little weird. I also see that you still have the pets “making a request”, so that means having to stop what you are doing and buy something, feed them something, dress them, play a game you don’t want to play, all just to make them “happy”? I guess I’m just getting old. I like WW the way it is right now. Love the Desk Top App. Just wish Ganz would FIX the things that aren’t working, and haven’t been working for years! The original game SHOULD COME FIRST! :-( And, the pets on the updated WW look like old computer game art. Kind of childish in my opinion.
I have a Amazon’s tablet how do I get it
Ok so this is my third comment and am again going back and fourth. I appreciate GANZ creating something new and “fun” (I saw that lightly because this is not fun. I took on for the team so to speak and bought a second pet. I could not add a room and I don’t know what this “making children” is about because there are not directions. Basically I just blew 20.00 to see if this was worth it. I understand all companies are losing money right now, but again, Ganz, it would have been better to update “Webkinz”-the one we all use than to create this. I felt in the last few months so many things required actual money but I thought “well they are a company during a pandemic.” So, I played as I always do but this, this is just not good. If people like it….great! I for one, wish I could get the 20.00 back it cost for a second pet who I can DO NOTHING WITH! Don’t spend your money on this game unless you know the ins and outs. I mean teh curio shop doesn’t even work. Good effort but not sold.
And sorry for the type-os
Go to the adoption center. On the right is a pedestal with two spots. Put up your pets (they have sparks beside their portrait that tells you how many times you can breed them, which is 3 per pet) hit the breed button and watch the magic :)
one thing I have waited for FOREVER (well it feels like it) is to be able to move or remove doors and to sell back rooms or at least change the size (get rid of all the small rooms I bought when I was little). Will the classic game continue to make updates like that or are we stuck with it the way it is forever . Also, what about fixing the items that don’t work right (I paid real money for tiki wallpaper and have NEVER had the spinning fans that it showed in the estore). This new game looks intriguing. I will check it out, but I will always be a “classic kid”!!!
