The snow has finally fallen in Adopt Me! The highly anticipated Winter Update has arrived, transforming the entire map into a festive, snowy wonderland. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know, from the mysterious countdown gifts and map changes to secret areas you won’t want to miss.
A Complete Winter Map Overhaul
The most immediate change you’ll notice is the visual transformation. The entire game world is now covered in a blanket of snow. Rivers and ponds have frozen over, allowing players to walk or skate across them. Festive decorations, from twinkling lights to large Christmas trees, are scattered throughout, creating a truly immersive seasonal experience.
Key locations have received a winter-themed makeover, making exploration a fresh and exciting activity.
Unwrapping the Mystery: All Countdown Gifts Explained
One of the central features of this update is the introduction of several large, wrapped presents with timers. These gifts are clearly building up to a multi-stage event. Here’s a breakdown of what you can find:
The 27-Day Gift: A massive present with a long timer, suggesting a major reward or event starter.
The 20-Day Gift: Another large gift, often found near new or altered structures.
The 13-Day Gift: A medium-sized present counting down to a mid-event surprise.
The 2-Day Gift: A smaller, quicker gift that will likely be the first to open.
Each of these gifts emits a unique sound—such as jingle bells, workshop noises, or party music—which serves as a teaser for the event content they will unlock.
New Locations & Major Map Changes
The Redesigned Nursery
The Nursery has received a total redesign, now fully embracing the winter theme. It also prominently features the pre-sale for the Aztec Egg, reminding players of this upcoming addition. Keep an eye out for new decorative elements like a bee statue, glowing panels, and mysterious lamps.
The Abandoned Workshop
Players can find a new, boarded-up building labeled as a workshop. It is currently locked and features a timer matching the 20-day gift. This strongly indicates it will become a significant location for a future event phase.
The New Train Station
A brand-new train station has been built, with tracks that stretch across the map. While the station is visually complete, the trains are not yet operational. This is likely a teaser for a new transportation method or event area in a future update.

Beyond the main changes, the map is filled with smaller secrets to discover:
Snowy Pathways: Explore new snowy trails that lead to frozen objects and hidden corners.
