In its latest update for August 2023, Niantic’s augmented reality title Peridot has unveiled several changes among which include a streamlined Hatching process, the introduction of new game events, and various other enhancements. Let us learn more about what the plans with the update are.
The new Peridot update allows you to see hatching costs upfront
The major announcement that followed up was about the simplification of the hatching process. From now on, hatching costs for Dots will be displayed upfront. This will enable them to promptly initiate the hatching process without the necessity of sending a request for approval. The variety of Dots can be explored and immediately hatched, fostering a smoother experience.

For those who do not know, Hatching or Hatch a Dot in Peridot is the process of breeding two adult Peridots to create a new Dot and discover new Archetypes. Hatch-a-Dot allows you to breed your Dot with other dots from across the world to produce new offspring. We have a detailed guide on hatching a Dot, which you can read and understand.
Additionally, in upcoming in-game events, Wild Dots will be introduced to Habitats globally, enhancing the excitement of neighborhood exploration. The initial appearance of Wild Dots is scheduled from August 21 to August 25 during the Trait Week event. The following schedule outlines the types of Wild Dots to anticipate:
Date | Events |
---|---|
Monday, August 21 | Horns from existing Archetypes |
Tuesday, August 22 | Wild Dots featuring Staircase and Crown Horns |
Wednesday, August 23 | Wild Dots showcasing Demon and Spire Horns |
Thursday, August 24 | Wild Dots with Stacked and Spiral Horns |
Friday, August 25 | Compilation of all Wild Dots featured throughout the week |
Note that all these events will be held at local time. Without a doubt, this event will be beneficial if you are looking to encounter more dots.
