Bandai announced two new Tamagotchi Paradise models, Orange Tropics and White Glacier, launching July 11, 2026. The devices introduce Tropical and Glacial fields with over 30 new Tamagotchi, plus real-time communication, cooperative, and battle mini-games between units.
The new devices each start in a different field: Orange Tropics begins in the Tropical field, while White Glacier starts in the Glacial field. Both can unlock the other field and the Forest field as raising progresses. Over 30 new Tamagotchi characters are exclusive to the Tropical and Glacial environments, alongside new items and mini-games.
The headline feature is real-time communication between two units. Two mini-games are available: Tama Shooting, a cooperative game where players team up to defeat Virus-tchi, and Wai Wai U Hockey, a battle game where players shoot a ball into the opponent's goal. These communication games only work between Orange Tropics and White Glacier units, not with earlier Paradise models.
A premium set includes a soft case with a Tamagotchi face on the front and Paradise illustrations on the back, plus a star-shaped zoom dial cover. Early purchasers receive a Tama Lab Sticker featuring Okujotchi on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations open May 21, 2026. The overseas World Tamagotchi Tour resumes in May, visiting Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Mexico, with some venues selling the 30th anniversary Tamagotchi.
