The upcoming update for Cookie Run Kingdom is stirring up excitement as leaks suggest a brand-new Affection System may soon be introduced, along with a couple of new cookies. With hints of a March 2025 update on the horizon and major changes like Master Mode in Beast Raid already underway, this guide will break down everything we know so far about the Affection System and what it might mean for your gameplay.

What Is the Affection System?

For those unfamiliar, the Affection System isn’t entirely new—it’s been a feature in Cookie Run Oven Break, where players could gift items to their cookies, earning various rewards in return. In Cookie Run Kingdom, this system is expected to add a more personal touch, letting you show extra love to your favorite cookies. Although details remain scarce, leaks hint that the Affection System might be part of a long-term plan for additional in-game content. Whether it will be a permanent feature or just a special event remains to be seen, but many fans are already excited about the potential for deeper interaction with their cookie characters.

What to Expect with the New Update

1. New Cookies on the Horizon

Leaks from reliable sources on Twitter indicate that two new cookies could be joining the roster with the upcoming update. The names—revealed in Korean—translate to Black Forest Cookie and Wedding Cake Cookie.  There’s some speculation that Black Forest Cookie might be connected to themes like Millennial Tree or could simply serve as a thematic filler update.

Additional legendary cookies, such as Fire Spirit and Millennial Tree, are also in the mix for later this year, with Eternal Sugar, Silent Salt (with holberry awaken), and White Lily Awaken scheduled for release before the 5th Anniversary in January 2026. This update promises a refreshed cookie lineup that keeps the gameplay dynamic and exciting.

2. Update Milestones and Additional Content

Apart from the Affection System and new cookies, the update is set to bring a variety of other changes. A milestone update for 2025 was mentioned during a director’s livestream, indicating the addition of Island decorations, Champions League, expanded Guild content, and more innovative game modes like My Cookie Battles. These updates are expected to enrich the overall gaming experience and ensure that Cookie Run Kingdom continues to evolve with fresh content and exciting challenges.

How the Affection System Might Work

While the specifics are still under wraps, here’s what we can speculate based on previous implementations and the leaks:

  • Gifting Mechanics: Players may be able to gift items or treats to their cookies via an in-game menu. This could unlock special rewards, bonuses, or unique interactions that reflect your bond with your cookies.
  • Long-Term Content Integration: The Affection System is touted as part of a larger plan for additional content, meaning it might tie into seasonal events or ongoing character development features.
  • Enhanced Interaction: With the Affection System, players could see more depth in how cookies react to gifts, potentially affecting their performance or unlocking new animations and storylines.

The forthcoming update for Cookie Run Kingdom is shaping up to be one of the most exciting yet, with the potential introduction of the Affection System promising a more personal and engaging way to interact with your favorite cookies.

Alongside new cookie characters like Black Forest and Wedding Cake Cookie, and a host of additional content, this update is set to redefine how you experience the game. Stay tuned for more details as the release date approaches, and get ready to show your cookies some extra love—because in Cookie Run Kingdom, affection might just be the key to unlocking new adventures!
