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!
Are the only pets available the ones in the Adoption Center, or can you use other Webkinz codes as well (plush, eStore, hamsters maybe)?
Webkinz Classic codes will not work on the new Webkinz.
Is anyone else having problems placing items on tables? The article above says “Every item can be placed where you want and how you want.” but I can’t place anything on two items that I could place things on in Classic Webkinz. Help!
Hi Webkinz, is there going to be a Desktop app version that is available like the classic one without needing to make a Microsoft account?
I’m not super impressed by the “new Webkinz.” I’ve spent 10 years building my current house and collecting pets on Webkinz Classic- why would I want to start all over? I don’t find the graphics appealing. The “cuteness” of Webkinz relies on them looking unrealistic, so 3D graphics aren’t a big deal to me and I find the rendering somewhat clunky. I find the idea of “breeding” pets weird… like a virtual puppy mill or something. I also don’t like the idea of having limited numbers of plays at the arcade. And the additional social stuff doesn’t do anything for me since I don’t view Webkinz as a social media outlet. I downloaded it just to try it, but I don’t plan on doing anything with it. I really hope more time and energy can be spent on Webkinz Classic.
That’s fair — the new Webkinz isn’t going to appeal to everyone. Webkinz Classic isn’t going anywhere :)
I am glad to hear reassurances that Webkinz Classic won’t be going away. I think my fear with this new Webkinz is that the old Webkinz will eventually be phased out. Kind of like corporate acquisitions. The Bon Marche became the Bon Macy’s, and then just Macy’s and soon all signs of the Bon Marche were gone. (Seattle/Tacoma reference, haha).
Well, we’ve launched a lot of different sites over the years, but Classic has always remained :)
where is the unicorn? i cant seem to find it at the adoption center…
After all the time and money I’ve spent on ‘Webkinz Classic’ I don’t really have any interest in starting from the ground up in a slightly different Webkinz world, but it will probably be fun for brand new players.
I was excited, till I found out that the only way to get new pets was to buy them with gems, wich you have to buy with real cash. :(
Wasn’t it stated before that you would be able to earn these “gems”? (I haven’t been able to download the game yet so I don’t know what it says in it)
Yes, gems are sometimes the rewards for Challenges, and are one of the potential login gifts.
Tried to download on my Sony Vaio Laptop. It says its not compatible with my device. How can that be?
Where are you trying to download from? What operating system are you running?
Are the new Webkinz and Webkinz Classic able to work together, or are they two separate individual games? Does the new Webkinz have the same Trading/KinzPost system that Webkinz Classic does? Can you trade or Kinzpost between the two versions?
They are completely separate. There is no KinzPost in the new game yet, but there is also no plan to link both games
Sally, can i download it on my Mac?
It is not currently available for MacOS
Is that the same thing as my regular Mac? I have two and they are just regular computers not laptops.
MacOS is what runs on iMacs and Macbooks. iOS is what runs on iPads and iPhones.
I want to put the new webkinz game on my tablet which is Samsung 2.0 and I can’t find an app on google play. Will it be available? The games are just too hard to play on my phone because it is so small.
If your tablet is running Android 10 and has 2 GB of RAM, when you search “Webkinz” you should then be able to scroll down past “Similar Apps” and see it there.
