Pet Park is without a doubt one of my most anticipated RS3 future updates and I'd like to know if there's any recent news on it making it to the game? I really want Jagex to label pets like the bloodpouncer as a Magic pet and the prototype colossus pet as a Mechanical in pet battles. Not necessarily a construction update but related. OSRS already has a little arena you can have pets fight each other but there's no real benefit to it. Because POF already has tasks you can do for rep so a Pet Park that you can do tasks for rep to unlock pet related updates is something I really want.

I believe Pet Park has been scrapped and the idea of having our pets to work for us offline is being burdened upon our Anachronia Base Camp workers and Player Owned Nerds (researchers) in Archaeology rather.

Having our pets to fight other people's is already implemented in some pets, as well as our Battleship followers. We even have minor rewards from the Battleships in RS3 too.

I wanted a pet park soo bad...i knew it would never happen so my poh has a huge part of
it dedicated to flowers and 31 pets playing .. many flowers, water and trees so all my pets
enjoy their time.

I go there often just to visit with my pets..sometimes on 20m a day sometimes hours a
day. The richest person is not who has the most. It is who Needs the least.

I mean Pet park could be a safe way of PVP without needing to enter the wilderness, you use your Undead revenant pet and it's strong against your bobblehead Humanoid yet it's weak against Critters like the Tumbleweed. Pet Park could also introduce the "pet for your pet" where once you get max rep your pet can have its own pet when following you. And Pet Park could finally bring the updated graphics for the dagannoth pets, I personally prefer the dagannoth pets to look 2007 but NXT appropriate graphics for all pets would be nice.

"The pet park is a great place to see all your achievements in a four-legged format, collecting different groups of pets for hidden rewards. You'll be able to customise the park like a strange zoo or safari park, and even train your pet army to work for you: a Miscellania-style workforce who can perform tasks while you are away."

@Jeremy Cheng

I don't think Pet Park was what you think. It was originally designed to make pets work like the other Player Owned workers (Misc kingdom, Anachronia Base Camp, Archaeology Reserachers, POF Farmhands etc).

Anyway, subsequently Jagex seemed to have cancelled Pet Park as they have found many other ways to implement the off-task/offline progression concept. They did bring up the idea of adding Pet Gear in last year's big Runescape Annual Survey though. Pet's pets are not that easy to implement probably.
