en.Wedoany.com Reported - On July 27, 2026, Tencent QQ announced the refreshed return of QQ Pet. The new version retains the basic nurturing experience while upgrading the pet's appearance to 3D and integrating Tencent's Hunyuan Hy3 large model, making the pet more lively and natural in appearance, movements, and interactive feedback.
The core upgrade of this QQ Pet return is the introduction of artificial intelligence technology. Powered by Tencent's Hunyuan Hy3 large model, the pet is endowed with a differentiated "soul." Users can choose from different personalities such as Little Sun, Clingy, Mischievous, or Drama Queen based on their preferences. Unlike the traditional "fixed operations plus preset feedback" model, pets with different personalities can exhibit richer proactive feedback during daily interactions. The pet can record and share its daily activities, sharing real-time updates during learning, working, adventuring, and other processes, and can even generate a "Pet Diary" based on the day's events.
The new version of QQ Pet fully adopts 3D visuals and supports multiple species, adding "Dog" and "Garlic Goose" to the classic "Q Brother" and "Q Sister." The 3D pet offers richer interactive feedback, with noticeable physical changes when touched, such as fur naturally swaying in the direction of the touch. The returning pet is first available on mobile QQ and is integrated into more product interfaces.
In terms of daily nurturing, the new version of QQ Pet retains classic features such as feeding, bathing, working, adventuring, learning, and growth systems. Users can either use one-click "care" to quickly complete feeding and bathing, or manually operate by dragging and tapping to feel the pet's responses. The new version retains the classic illness setting, but pets will not die from illness.
The pet's career growth system has also become richer. Pets can learn different skill attributes at the Pet Academy, then after graduation, work in Career Town as detectives, celebrities, and other professional roles to earn gold coins and unlock exclusive "career trees." They can also visit Adventure Park to encounter other friends' pets.
The new pet leverages QQ's social relationship chain to further explore friend interaction possibilities. Users can visit friends' "Pet Cottages" to help with care, engage in pet PKs, step on each other, or even "hire" others' pets to work and earn gold coins. The system also recommends more pet friends. The pet adds a "Spark Continuation" feature, where continuously "stepping on" a friend's pet for three days lights up the spark.
As a classic memory from the PC era, QQ Pet once accompanied a generation of users. QQ uses artificial intelligence capabilities to bring a new experience form to this classic IP, making it more naturally integrated into users' daily communication.
