The next steal an egg update is officially locked in and ready for launch. Titled New Biome is Coming, this major patch adds a fresh chapter of content revolving around mysterious creatures hidden throughout the map.
You can jump into the new content starting Saturday, October 3, 2026, at 3:00 PM UTC. It is easy to lose track of time when grinding for rare spawns, so I recommend marking your calendar now so you do not miss the initial rush.
Before you dive in, make sure your game client is fully updated through the launcher to avoid any download delays. It is also smart to clear out some space in your inventory, as you will likely want room for whatever new items or creatures appear once the gates open.
Knowing exactly when to log in helps you stay ahead of the curve during the initial release period. Here is the breakdown of what to watch for as the clock ticks down.

What to expect from the New Biome is Coming update
The Enchanted Forest is the star of the show for this update. The developers have teased this area as a magical, undiscovered region that holds secrets far beyond the current map boundaries.
Deep beyond the forest lies something undiscovered, a magical new biome, new creatures to discover, hidden secrets waiting to be found.
Beyond just the scenery, you can expect several new features that will change how you play.
- Enchanted Forest: This is a brand new explorable area designed to expand the world map significantly.
- New eggs: Given the focus on new creatures, expect unique eggs specific to this forest environment.
- Hidden secrets: The developers have hinted at puzzles or mysteries buried within the trees.
- New mechanics: While unconfirmed, there is speculation about a new interaction system or potential crafting additions similar to the Fusion Chamber.
Treat the Enchanted Forest as more than just a destination, as the teased secrets suggest there is a depth of content here meant to keep us exploring for a long time. We will know for sure if those new mechanics hold water once the servers are live.
