Breaking News: World of Neopia on the horizon! + Concept Art

ALSO: See the news post below for an explanation of our recent downtime!

UPDATE: We have a new quote about the features of World of Neopia, along with a quote from Kyra Reppen, current head of Neopets. See below for more info!

We've received word that Neopets will be having a virtual world created tentatively titled World of Neopia. Nickelodeon, the owners of Neopets, are taking the initiative to create a world for Neopets, in addition to one for Spongebob Squarepants and 'Monkey World'.

Right now, there are very few details available about the world, but we have this quote from paidContent.org:

Nick is creating a virtual world around its Neopets social net site that carries the working title of World of Neopia. Existing animated property SpongeBob SquarePants is also getting its own virtual world, while the other planned community is tentative called Monkey World. To further drive home the increased significance of creating virtual environments, its NeoStudios is now the Nickelodeon Kids and Family Group Virtual World Studios. Monkey World and the SpongeBob virtual world are both in the conceptual stages of development.

This also brings up another interesting question... what happened to Neostudios? Last year, we brought you news about how the team behind Neopets was apparently going to be renamed "Neostudios" so that they could develop new worlds. We also have this quote putting the matter to rest: TNT isn't going anywhere, and it was simply what Nickelodeon was calling their large group of online game developers.

The new worlds will be developed out of Nickelodeon Kids and Family Group's Virtual World Studios (formerly titled NeoStudios, announced in July 2007), which will develop virtual destinations for kids, tweens, teens and families each year, while continuing to innovate upon the company's existing virtual worlds.

We have this new quote from the official press release that Nickelodeon has released regarding their new online world endeavours.

World of Neopia will build upon the fundamental Neopets meta-game and its existing play patterns, and enhance those experiences in a graphical, in-world environment easily accessible online. The new, multi-player geared toward tweens, but appealing to all ages, will include games, a community, in-world chat, and customization, among other activities. Players will be able to discover the deep story lines within Neopia as their Neopets explore the various Neopian lands.

"World of Neopia will provide our loyal fans with greater interactivity and connection to the Neopets they love, and will attract a whole new generation of users," said Kyra Reppen, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Neopets. "We are taking the core fundamentals of Neopets: the game play; the deep, engaging experiences; and the community, and bringing those to life in a more interactive, rich experience."
Sounds like we're going to be having a walkthrough Neopia within the next year or so! Just think, being able to walk through the streets of Neopia Central, picking up a Meerca Fruit Burger for a snack, and then traveling to Faerieland to catch a Poogle Race. Sounds pretty cool to me. Remember, you saw this information on Jellyneo first! There's also some cool concept art below. Remember, this is all concept and totally subject to change! (Anyone remember the original Darkest Faerie Video game concept art? )
