Birthday Battle Pass & Monocorapter Raid


If you battled Vocivus during The Void Within plot and have been itching to jump back into the Battledome, now's your chance! One of Neopets' original raid bosses, the Monoceraptor, has returned from Tyrannia! Join the fight, deal damage, and earn exciting rewards while working together with fellow Neopians to unlock community milestone prizes.

And the birthday festivities don't stop there! Introducing the Birthday Battle Pass, featuring two reward tracks: the free Birthday Bash Track, available to all players, and the expanded Big Bash Premium Track, automatically unlocked for Premium members or available for purchase through the NC Mall.

Earn points by battling the Monoceraptor, spinning the Wheel of Celebration, participating in ongoing events in Tales of Dacardia and Faerie Fragments, and more! Rack up points to unlock a variety of exciting rewards, including the brand-new Birthday Paint Brush!

Birthday Neopets LIVE!

As part of the birthday festivities, Neopets LIVE! is making a comeback. Hosted by TNT Luna, this special livestream will feature updates from members of The Neopets Team on exciting upcoming projects, behind-the-scenes scoops, and a chance to get your burning questions answered by TNT Dom during his AMA segment!

Be sure to tune in until the very end for the reveal of an exclusive birthday-themed item code you won't want to miss!

Neopets Companion App x Premium

While Neopets remains committed to being free-to-play at its core, Premium membership offers a variety of perks to make your adventures in Neopia even more convenient! From ad-free browsing and double time on quests to additional Lab Ray zaps and more, there's plenty to enjoy. And now, we're adding another handy perk to the Premium lineup at the Training Schools. Premium members can now pay for training courses using items stored directly in their Safety Deposit Box, making training easier than ever!

The Premium perks don't stop there; Neopets Premium membership also extends to the Neopets Companion App, where you can enjoy extra omelette servings, additional Lab Ray and Petpet Lab Ray zaps, bonus wheel spins, double rewards at Ye Olde Fishing Vortex, and more.

Site Filter & Neoboard Updates

The Neopets Team has updated our site filters to address longstanding restrictions that have historically affected harmless words, item names, and everyday conversations.

Should the occasion arise, you can now let your Neofriends know that your uncle keeps crackers and seaweed in the basement like he’s preparing for the apocalypse!


Alongside these updates, we've also introduced a wider range of pronoun options in Neotitles, giving Neopians more ways to express themselves and making it easier for everyone to address one another comfortably and respectfully.

And that's not all! Look forward to a slate of brand new smileys hitting the Neoboards! *eye* *varwolf* *deadchia*

Coming up next: Friendsgiving

Once the carnival packs up, Jorett heads into the kitchen. From November 19 he’s hosting a Friendsgiving harvest banquet in New Faerieland, and he’ll need your help gathering the feast supplies. Tia is also next in line for a skill upgrade. Her rework adds a brand-new color-swap mechanic, and because she’s a fast-paced character, you’ll be able to use her skill more often than most.
