They’re gooey, they’re glorpy, and they are adorable. Introducing the first addition to the lineup of Ranch animals: Goobi.
A Goobi is formed from condensed elemental Flow. In this case...hydroflow mixed with pond scum. While pond scum is not an element, it's still the secret ingredient that makes a Goobi a Goobi.
Goobis have the possibility of 6 different color traits and 3 different flower traits. They also follow the same visual pattern system used by other ranch animals, which means traits that affect one species may also appear on a Goobi. Yes, that means that a sparkly Goobi is totally possible.
Once you reach ranching skill level 10, you can bring home a Goobi via the Ranching Guild Store.
Take good care of them and they’ll reward you with beautiful foraged flowers, from the delicate Heartdrop Lily to the infamous Elderwood Lotus.
Ranch life just got a bit slimier… in the best way.
Ranching is blossoming with new life this fall. Multiplayer ranching and pen organization are two new features we can’t wait for you to explore.
Multiplayer Ranching
Invite your friends into your barn by guiding them to your housing plot and letting them ring your barn bell. Your visitors can pet, feed, and help you collect items from your animals. Experience from feeding, petting, and collecting an animal’s items is shared between both players, but any items collected are sent directly to the owner.
You can even grant trusted friends editor permissions, allowing them to feed treats to your animals. Only a handful of treats remain reserved only for the owner. (The Immaculate Confection Biscuit, Divine Donut, and Fast-Grow Cookie).
A new permissions menu on the table with the animal roster makes managing access simple!
Enjoy exploring multiplayer!
Pen Organization
You can now set up where each animal belongs. A new permissions menu on the table with the animal roster allows you to prioritize which pen your animal is sent to. Pens will fill up with the animals prioritized to it first, but please note that there is still a limit of up to 10 animals per pen.
Babies can also now be sent to pens other than the nursery to be able to stay with their parents.
You can find all of these settings underneath each animal on the animal roster screen. We’ve updated the pens and the map with symbols to indicate which pen you are sending your animals to.
Your animals are ready to snuggle into their new pens and enjoy the crisp fall air.
Balance Changes
Life on the ranch just got a little happier for you and your herd! We’ve reduced the happiness decay rate for all animals (from 5 to 4), and increased their production limit (from 2 to 3).
With the introduction of multiplayer functionality and shared ranching experience, we’ve also stretched the “new home” timer on animals from 2 hours to 4 hours so your barn buddies have extra time to settle in. From happier animals to organized pens, this season’s ranching has no tricks and all treats!
It would not be Spiritfest without the Spooky Moon Store creeping back into town for another year! This year it holds returning trinkets and new items alike, with certain curios only unlocked through completing the bundles on the Bulletin Board.

Spiritfest has arrived, a time when Kilima honors the beloved dead. Najuma promised her dad that she would take care of everything for her mothers shrine this year, but one special project has taken up all of her time and she needs your help to finish the rest.
You’ll find four bundles waiting for your completion. One focuses on the shrine offerings, another on food for the Spiritfest feast, and two more that capture the spirit of celebration. Along the way, Najuma will introduce you to the tradition of candy hunting, where candy hidden by the departed can be discovered by fishing, insect catching, mining, and rummaging through the Elderwood.
Keep an eye out for the pumpkin themed bundle too. It features all sorts of pumpkin treats, including the Jack O' Lantern Lure which allows for the new Pumpkin Rockhopper to appear!
By lending Najuma a hand with the bundles, you will grow your friendship with her and unlock prizes like the Spooky Fishing Bobber, a new flower in the spooky store, and the new Jack O' Lantern Lure.
These bundles and rewards will only linger through this patch, though the rewards are planned to return in the future.
The Spiritfest bundle is the perfect time to honor the past while enjoying the present.
Get ready to get comfy, because furniture has never been so inviting.
On your home plot, you can now curl up for a nap on your very own bed, or take a seat on a bench and share the view with a friend.
We’re excited to keep adding more ways to interact with your space, so let us know what you’d like to see.
Introducing the Pumpkin Rockhopper, a limited-time insect that makes its debut during Spiritfest.
To encounter them, you will need theJack O' Lantern Lure, a special seasonal lure that functions much like the honey lure, but summons Pumpkin Rockhoppers instead.
The Jack O' Lantern Lure cannot be crafted and is only available during the event, but it will return in future years.
Best of all, Pumpkin Rockhoppers can be caught from a lure placed by anyone, so even if you have not completed the bulletin board, you can still take part in the hunt. Catch them in their regular form or discover a star quality Pumpkin Rockhopper, which you can proudly display on your home plot to celebrate the season.
Happy hunting and haunting!
