Neopets, the long-running website that featured virtual pets and Flash games, is under brand new management and they’re planning a nostalgic comeback. Yesterday, the newly established owners, World Of Neopia, published a blog post to unveil what’s next for the ‘00s petsite, after the previous owners saddled the franchise with dumb NFT rubbish and then shut down.

With around $4 million in funding secured from investors, the Neopets Team is planning an expansive comeback tomorrow, July 20th, starting with a revamped website that unifies all Neopet announcements, links to games, and “anything else Neopian you can think of.” Shortly after that, the team will start bringing back over 50 Flash games from Neopet’s past with the use of Ruffle, a Flash game emulator. Maybe thatBejeweled-like onewill come back too.
They’re also scrapping the previous NFT project, working on mobile compatibility for the website, and developing a whole new mobile game called World Of Neopets.
Neopets exploded in popularity slightly before my time on the internet. But Moshi Monsters? Moshi Monsters wasthe thingto play (stare at) if you were a child in the mid-late 2000s. Maybe I’ll check back and see how thatMMO-for-kids is doing someday. I’m sure my Monsters are fine after 15 years of neglect, right?
