Neopets Gets New Management, Ditches NFTs And Crypto
The new leadership team has promised to fix the site's old Flash games, and launch a new Neopets-centric mobile app--without crypto
TNT also announced that it would be moving away from its prior plans for Neopets Metaverse, in line with fan feedback, and would instead be focused on a mobile app called World of Neopets. Described as a "social life-simulation game," World of Neopets will be played from the perspective of a Neopet, and involve exploration, mini games, social interactions, and decorating your own Neohome. While it will reuse some of Neopets Metaverse's assets, the game is being designed from the ground up, and currently has no crypto or NFT integrations--and no plans to add any, either.
To help in its lofty goals for reviving Neopets, TNT has asked fans to help out by interacting with the site--dusting off old accounts, logging in, or downloading one of its mobile games like Island Builders or Faerie's Hope. As a little incentive, Neopets is offering a giveaway of 2 million Neocash--the site's premium currency--with players who log in and complete certain tasks given more chances to win. TNT will also be launching a brand ambassador program to bring Neopets back into the limelight.
