The Neopets team decided to delay the game after experiencing some unanticipated issues. However, the team is confident that the game will be polished and ready when the revised launch date comes. The game was initially supposed to launch January 17th.
Announced at San Diego Comic-Con in July 2018, the new mobile game should breathe some fresh life into the franchise. It’ll be Neopets’ first foray into mobile.
Developed by JumpStart Games, which has created several learning-based games for kids in the past, Neopets Legends and Letters will be an RPG word-puzzle battle game.
Further, JumpStart also encourages Neopets fans to keep a lookout for a mobile-focused revamp of Neopets Universe in Summer 2019.
“Our dedicated Neopets team is happy to share that the Neopets universe is gaining new life in 2019 with mobile technology and keeping Neopia alive and well for all fans,” said Neopets director of marketing, community and web shares Taylor Lord.
Lord also indicated the new mobile game would be ready for both new and seasoned Neopets players.
