Spring has sprung, Super Animals! The third and final week of Respawning Day is upon us, and with it comes one last batch of challenges and rewards to unlock beneath the cherry blossoms.

From now until Friday, April 24th, you can complete the Week 3 challenges along with Weeks 1 and 2 if you still have any left to finish.

We’ve also got fresh spring fanart to share, a few new goodies in the SAW Shop, and a big thank you to all of you for bringing the Thomas Sledison Makeship Plush to life in under 24 hours!


For the final week of the event, we’re returning to the fan-favorite Sakura Festival, so put on the pinkest things you own and get ready for one last round of egg hunting amidst the falling petals.

The Super Petal Panda is an elegant new Super Panda breed fresh from the Research Lab. It may look soft and springy, but don’t be fooled by all that pink fluffiness: it’s just as ready to cause trouble as any other Super Animal! As with all new event breeds, it’s a permanent addition to the Research Lab. Thank you to SAILORo7 for suggesting it in our Discord server!

• Teal Kimono | Collect Super Eggs (1337)
  
• 2000 XP | Smash Fabergé Giant Emu Eggs (15)
  
• Fuji Umbrella | Land Under a Cherry Blossom Tree
  
• 750 Carl Coins | Dance at the Beakeasy Stage
  
• Taiko Drum Gravestone | Eat Placed Bananas with the Banana Forker (12)

• Super Petal Panda (Available at Level 30)

The Respawning Day event ends Friday, April 24th, so there’s still time to finish all three weeks of challenges. Happy egg hunting!


Teacher’s pet? You bet. Look and feel prepared for the island’s many survival lessons with the new Schoolgirl Bundle!

The Schoolgirl Bundle is available now and includes the following:

• Blue Schoolgirl Dress
  
• Blue Pen
  
• Books Gravestone

Health Juice can do a lot, but it can’t fix everything. A couple new additions for Super Animals feeling the island’s daily wear and tear have joined the SAW Shop rotation starting today:

• Black Eye
  
• Acupuncture

The Thomas Sledison plush campaign went live on Friday, and thanks to all of you it was fully funded in under 24 hours!

Thank you so much for the support, we can’t wait to get Thomas in your paws and hope you all love it as much as we do. We’re especially proud of all the detail we were able to pack into this one, including his fully detachable jacket and hat.

And like our previous Makeship plushies, every order comes with a code for the exclusive Sledison Plush Emote, so your in-game Super Animal can carry around their own tiny inventor.

You can order the plush until the end of the Makeship campaign on May 2nd.


Four new springtime Super Animal breeds are still available to claim as Twitch Drops! You can unlock them early before they eventually arrive in the Research Lab by supporting SAR streamers on Twitch.

To start earning Twitch Drops, you’ll need to link your Super Animal and Twitch accounts using the SAR Drops website[drops.animalroyale.com] (if you haven’t already).

Then, just watch any Drops-enabled stream in the Super Animal Royale category on Twitch[www.twitch.tv]!

Here are the breeds you can unlock during the campaign:

• Super Sable Lop Bunny
  
• Super Appaloosa Horse
  
• Super Fawn
  
• Super Spotted Lop Bunny

The Twitch Drops campaign ends on Friday, April 24th alongside the Respawning Day event.


Respawning Day and Bright Future inspired some amazing fanart from the community, so we’ve collected a few beautiful pieces to share. Thanks again to all of you who keep creating and inspiring us and letting us feature your work.

Thanks again for all your kind words and support throughout the Respawning Day and the Bright future launch. It means a lot to our team, and we hope you’ve all been having a ton of fun with the new content. We’re looking forward to sharing more once the event wraps up. See you on the island, Super Animals!

Bright Future brought a whole meteorite’s worth of new content to the island, and we hope you’ve been having fun exploring it so far. We’ve already been collecting lots of your feedback on the update and what you’d like to see next, and we’re looking forward to sharing more on that after the event.

Today, we’re kicking off Week 2 of Respawning Day with a new batch of challenges and rewards, a new Super Animal breed to unlock, and the Thomas Sledison Makeship Plush launching this Friday, April 10th!


Super Animals are no strangers to getting their paws dirty, and Week 2 of Respawning Day is here with a gardening-themed batch of challenges and rewards that trade sowing chaos for sowing seeds.

The new Super Grass Capybara has sprouted from the Research Lab. Whether it was engineered that way or just sat still long enough for grass to grow over it, the island may never know, but like all event breeds it’s a permanent addition.

• Handkerchief Hat | Collect Super Eggs (1200)
  
• 1500 XP | Chop Grass with a Giant Emu(150)
  
• Rake | Deal Melee Damage (200)
  
• 750 Carl Coins | Drink Health Juice with Cupgrade (200)
  
• Adhesive Bandage| Heal Teammates or Giant Emus with Darts (250)

• Super Grass Capybara (Available at Level 50)

And thanks to oh_ghost on Discord for the Handkerchief hat suggestion!


We’ve been busy, busy in the workshop with our friends at Makeship getting our newest plush campaign ready: the Thomas Sledison plush! Sledison has been a fan favorite for a long time, and with his big role in Bright Future, this felt like the perfect time to finally give SAR’s busiest inventor a plush of his own.

The plush features a fully detachable coat and hat, and every order comes with a coupon code you can redeem for the in-game Sledison Plush Emote, which lets your Super Animal carry around its very own little Sledison plush (ideal for bringing your own tiny backseat inventor into Sledison’s workshop).

The campaign goes live this Friday, April 10th, and we also have giveaways running now on our Twitter[x.com] and Instagram[www.instagram.com] from now until the campaign begins, so follow us there if you’d like a chance to enter.

We’ve also rolled out a few fixes since launch:

• Fixed Hot Mode showing progress ticks from the previous day.
  
• Fixed Chinese text input bug on Switch.

And the following fixes are also already live on Steam and will roll out to consoles in a later patch:

• Fixed an issue where friends would occasionally not have the Join Hub option.
  
• Fixed the cross-play party Kick button not working, though consoles will still need a patch for the fix to fully roll out.
  
• Fixed an issue causing quest auto-tracking to revert on the client UI.

We’re also working on a few other known issues. We’ve identified the cause of one where some cross-play parties with a Switch 1 player can fail to connect to matches, and a fix is already on the way in the next Switch patch. Thanks for bearing with us in the meantime!


Over the next week or so, we’ll be testing new server providers and trying a few different server setups as we explore potential improvements. We’re cautiously optimistic that this could lead to a better experience overall, but we’d love to hear your feedback on how matches feel during the trial.

We’ll be monitoring things closely throughout the test period and comparing how the different options perform. Once we’ve had time to review the results, we’ll share more about what we learned and what we plan to roll out more broadly.
