Tamagotchi Paradise and Peanuts Tamagotchi Nano Debut in August

Bandai Namco set the US release dates for the new mainline Tamagotchi Paradise and the spin-off Peanuts Nano virtual pet starring Snoopy. Both debut on August 1, 2025. The mainline, color system with a crank costs $44.99, and Amazon pre-orders are open for all three colors. The Nano with a silicone case shaped like a doghouse is $32.99, with Amazon also taking pre-orders for it.

This does mean there’s about a one month gap between the Japanese and US releases for all of these devices. The Peanuts Tamagotchi Nano with Snoopy debuts in Japan on July 12, 2025, as do the three Paradise models. 

In the case of the Nano, this is a barebones variant of the virtual pet. There’s no color screen. You can’t connect to the internet. It is only about 4cm tall. You raise Snoopy, which can evolve into different variants of the character based on your care. Others will appear as cameos. The three minigames in it are Beagle Scouts, Snoopy’s Suppertime, and Write the Great American Novel.

With the new mainline models, they’re much larger at over 3in. The idea is you can turn the crank to zoom in and out on a world. 12 species of character are present, with 50 characters to start, and you can breed them in your device or by connecting with someone else’s to create variants by mixing genes. There are more varied minigames and experiences in it than in a Nano model.

Here’s how the three Paradise visual pet variants look:

Both the Peanuts Tamagotchi Nano starring Snoopy and the three Paradise variants will launch in the US on August 1, 2025, with Bandai Namco’s Amazon storefront being the first outlet with pre-orders open.
