The Digging Offline Update for Dig It, released on June 20, 2025, introduces one of the most game-changing features yet — a pet system that allows players to dig for treasure even while offline. This addition transforms the gameplay loop, letting players progress without being constantly active. In this guide, we’ll explain everything you need to know about the Dig It offline digging update, including how to get pets, what each pet type does, new abilities, and all treasure additions in this patch.
What is the Digging Offline Update?
The Digging Offline Update is a major content drop for Dig It, a Roblox game centered around treasure hunting and digging progression. The update adds a new mechanic: pets that dig automatically, even when the player is not logged in.
Players can now build passive income through pets, unlock new treasures, and experiment with 13 new abilities and 16 treasure types added as part of the update.
All of these features are introduced on the starting island: Nookville.
How to Get Pets in Dig It
Getting your first pet is easy if you know where to look:
1. Spawn in Nookville
Every time you enter the game, you will land on the island called Nookville — the central hub for shopping, upgrading, and now, getting pets.
2. Find Eggwin’s Shop
Head over to Eggwin, located directly across from the mole NPC who enchants shovels. Eggwin sells eggs which contain pets.
3. Buy an Egg for 10,000 Doolars
Each egg costs 10,000 Doolars, the in-game currency. Once purchased, you’ll receive an unhatched egg in your inventory.
4. Tap to Hatch
Click or tap the egg multiple times to hatch it. One of the three pet types will appear randomly.
5. Equip Your Pet
Your new pet is now in your pet inventory. Equip it to follow you and begin digging automatically. Pets are active both online and offline once equipped.
All Pet Types and Their Abilities
There are three types of pets, each with a unique role and dig style:
1. Burrower
Specializes in digging speed
Best for quickly uncovering treasure
Ideal for players focused on fast progress
2. Hoarder
Prioritizes treasure value and quantity
More likely to dig up high-value items
Perfect for those who want better profit per session
3. Tinkerer
Versatile pet with balanced digging and value
Can be customized more flexibly than other types
Great for players who want to experiment with builds
Each pet grows stronger as it levels up, unlocking passive boosts that improve gameplay efficiency.
Understanding the Pet System
The pet system is deep and customizable. Here’s how it works:
Leveling: Pets gain XP as they dig, online or offline
Pet Inventory: Separate from player inventory; access via the Withdraw button in the top-right corner
Stats: Trackable metrics include dig speed (split between online/offline modes), loot luck, and ability progression
Passive Abilities: Unlocked at level milestones (e.g., increased backpack capacity, better loot odds)
Reroll Abilities: Use moles to reroll abilities for better synergy or performance
Tied to Pet Type: Each pet type influences which abilities are available to roll
This system gives players a reason to invest time into their pet lineup — the more you level them, the stronger your passive gains become, even when you’re not actively playing.
New Abilities and Treasures Added
The update doesn’t stop at pets. It also brings:
13 brand-new pet abilities
16 all-new treasure types
These abilities affect multiple areas of gameplay, such as:
Increasing offline dig yield
Improving rare treasure discovery
Expanding backpack space
Enhancing dig speed modifiers
Although individual ability names are tied to pet leveling and rerolling, each one adds depth and variety to how you build your digging strategy.
The new treasure items are randomly buried throughout Nookville and other dig sites. These treasures offer higher value tiers and more diversity in loot drops.
How Offline Digging Works
Once you’ve equipped a pet, here’s what happens while you’re offline:
Your pet continues digging in the background
Treasures collected are stored in your pet inventory, not your normal backpack
When you return, click Withdraw to collect all items found during your offline session
Pet stats like dig speed (offline) and loot luck influence how much you earn
Higher-level pets dig faster and retrieve better loot, even when you’re away
This system lets you make real progress without grinding, giving you a reason to log back in and enjoy the rewards.
Final Thoughts
The Dig It offline digging update is a major milestone for the game, transforming how players approach progression. With the introduction of pets, new abilities, and treasure types, you now have a way to earn rewards passively and customize your gameplay like never before.
Whether you prefer speed, value, or versatility, there’s a pet for every playstyle. The Nookville Eggwin shop, 13 new abilities, and 16 new treasures ensure there’s plenty to discover and optimize.
If you haven’t yet jumped back into Dig It, now is the perfect time — even when you’re offline, the digging never stops.
