Dear Neopians!

We know you’re all excited as we prepare for the upcoming events in Neopia like the return of The Void Within, the mysterious origins of the elusive Varwolf, and the Altador Cup.

We want to acknowledge that the Altador Cup has room for improvement, and we’re working hard to address those areas so that players can enjoy the event even more. This involves a lot of behind-the-scenes work from our team, including our devs, artists, designers, and QA, to make that a reality.

In response to player feedback and with the plot just around the corner, we’ve decided to scale the Altador Cup for 2025 down to a mini-event to ensure that your time playing feels engaging and fun.

While the Cup will look different this year, there’s still a lot of fun to be had! The Altador Cup Mini-Event will begin early June and run for a total of 19 days. To help keep you informed and to answer any burning questions, review the Altador Cup: The Grey Year FAQ.

We understand that these changes are a bit of an adjustment, but we want future Altador Cup events to live up to both your vision and ours, and to make that happen, our team needs time to implement improvements thoughtfully. We appreciate all of your feedback and look forward to seeing you at this year’s mini-event!

Hey Neopians!

We’ve got an update regarding Trudy’s Surprise that we want to share with you directly.

To help balance the number of Gift Boxes being distributed across the site, especially with new ways to earn them such as NC Direct bonuses, we’ll be adjusting the drop rate of Basic Gift Boxes via Trudy’s Surprise. We hope it's hardly noticeable, as we have only decreased it by 1 Gift Box per every consecutive 25-day streak.

This update helps ensure that Gift Boxes remain a meaningful reward across both free and paid experiences on the site.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding.
