- STAR REWARDS: When your ponies gain stars, you'll earn cool rewards depending on how many stars they have altogether! Further info is available on your Profile page!
Changes[]
- 24 new characters added.
- Star Mastery system added, which awards prizes to the player for reaching certain sums of character stars.
- The cost to play mini-games has increased tremendously (up to 69000
or 20 
), but the multipliers has also been increased (up to 150x). These costs and multipliers also seem to scale with player level progression. - The shop system has been revamped:
- Shops no longer need to have ponies assigned and they automatically produce the cheaper item (this apparently cannot be changed). As a result, pony costumes that used to reward extra bits from shops now gives bonuses on pony tasks instead.
- Gem shops produced more gems overall during the first days of the update, but as of the first event patch on December 8th, they were heavily nerfed to produce even less gems than before Update 4.1. This has been later reverted as of December 13th.
- A shop count is now available in the Profile page.
- Starlight Glimmer, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo now live in Ponyville.
- Several characters have their models improved, including Starlight Glimmer, Princess Celestia, Nightmare Moon and Daybreaker.
- Some character names have changed to the ones seen in the mane series. (See the list below)
