Otherwise, there are a ton of great features and pieces of content coming to the game, including a new adventure for the World of Exploration called Beast-Yeast. There are also two new Cookies coming to the game: White Lily Cookie and Silverbell Cookie. The former is Ancient, while the latter is Epic. They’ll be brought in alongside new costumes , changes to the Today’s Bounties system, and an increased level cap, in addition to some other neat stuff and quality-of-life improvements.
