Raise Animals Desert Dunes Update – What’s New?
Raise Animals is a popular tycoon simulator on Roblox where players use a lasso to catch and tame animals. Once tamed, these creatures can be showcased at your base to help you earn cash by attracting visitors. On November 16, 2025, Raise Animals launched its exciting Desert Dunes update, bringing a brand-new biome, a variety of new animals, zoo decorations, fresh weather events, and a new center event. This article gives you a detailed overview of everything new in this update.
New Biome: Desert Dunes
The Desert Dunes update introduces the fourth biome to Raise Animals — a vast and vibrant desert where life struggles to thrive. In this new area, you can experience dynamic sandstorms and discover hidden oases. Additionally, the biome features the Trader’s Caravan, where you can unlock and purchase new items.
You can unlock the Desert Dunes biome by either paying $7.5M in-game or by traveling far enough within the lasso minigame to access it. Exploring this challenging new environment allows you to catch and tame several new desert-adapted animals, each with unique rarities and abilities.
New Animals
The update adds a total of ten new desert animals that you can tame in the new biome. Here is the full list along with their rarity:
- Fringe-toed Lizard (Basic)
- Sand Scorpion (Rare)
- Desert Lark (Rare)
- Sidewinder Snake (Epic)
- Fennec Fox (Epic)
- Dromedary Camel (Legendary)
- Sand Cat (Legendary)
- Deathstalker Scorpion (Rainbow)
- Pharaoh Eagle (Shine)
- Anubis (Exclusive)
New Center Event: Oasis Revival
Oasis Revival is a new limited-time center event that spawns in the game lobby every hour. This event summons the Trader’s Caravan, allowing players to interact and purchase unique items using a new currency called Drops.
You can earn Drops by playing inside the new Desert Dunes biome. The Trader’s shop offers exclusive items, including:
- Bone Fence
- Anubis
New Obstacles in the Lasso Minigame
A new challenge has been introduced to the lasso minigame: Tumbleweeds. These randomly spawned obstacles appear during gameplay and increase the risk of crashing, adding an extra layer of difficulty to your animal-catching adventures.
New Weather Events
The update also adds two new weather phenomena to the game:
- Heatwave
- Mirage
Zoo Decorations
A new feature now allows players to customize and decorate their zoos by changing fences. Currently, the only available fence is the Bone Fence, which can be purchased from the Trader’s Caravan. More decorative options are expected to be added in future updates.
Miscellaneous Changes
The rarest 1% reward on the Daily Wheel has been updated. Instead of the previous Golden Lion, players now have the chance to win a Capybara as the ultra-rare prize when spinning the wheel daily.
