The next big update for Grow a Garden has been leaked, and it looks like players are getting something totally new: the Chubby Chipmunk Update. Unlike the usual “Part 2” expansions we’ve seen in the past, this time the devs are bringing in fresh content that feels more unique and exciting. Let’s go through everything we know so far and what you should prepare for. Also check out our Grow a Garden Codes and Grow a Garden Animals Tier List.
What’s Confirmed in the Chubby Chipmunk Update?
From the leaks, here’s what’s been revealed so far:
- New Pet: Chubby Chipmunk A brand-new pet is coming, and yes—it’s a fat chipmunk. This looks like the main highlight of the update and will most likely be tied to the event.
- New Seeds: Peanuts, Chestnuts, and Acorns Three new plants are expected to be added. Peanuts and chestnuts are already teased, while acorns seem confirmed as well. These new crops could bring in different rewards and farming strategies.
- Event Content Just like other themed updates, players can expect rewards, challenges, and possibly special limited-time items tied to the chipmunk event.
Possible Extra Features
Aside from the confirmed content, there are hints of more changes:
- Weather Updates – Many players are hoping fall weather will return, bringing seasonal vibes to the map.
- Cosmetic Trading – A long-requested feature where players could trade rare cosmetics for shackles or other items.
- Balance Adjustments – The raccoon pet has been flagged for nerfs due to how often it steals fruit and impacts the economy.
- Extra Ascension Shop Slots – Devs may allow players to unlock more safe slots for storing progress.
When Will the Update Arrive?
The Chubby Chipmunk event is expected to launch soon, with admin abuse sessions happening about an hour before release in 4 October 2025. Make sure you’re online during that time—these events usually come with fun surprises and free items.
The Chubby Chipmunk update feels like a step in the right direction after the buggy seed stages patch. With new pets, crops, and possible quality-of-life improvements, there’s a lot to be excited about.
