Roblox Pet Simulator 170 Update Patch Notes Breakdown

If you’ve been logging into Roblox Pet Simulator lately and noticed new pets, events, or weird glitches suddenly fixed, chances are you’re seeing the effects of update 170. This patch brought a mix of bug fixes, balance tweaks, and fresh content and if you care about staying competitive or just enjoying what’s new, reading through the actual patch notes helps more than guessing.

What’s actually in the Roblox Pet Simulator 170 update?

The 170 update isn’t a total overhaul, but it’s packed with small changes that add up. New limited-time pets dropped, some older ones got stat adjustments, and a few long-standing bugs (like pets clipping through terrain or coin multipliers acting strange) were finally patched. There’s also a new event tied to this version which means time-limited rewards you can’t get later.

You can see the full list of what changed in the detailed breakdown here, including exact pet stat changes and spawn rate tweaks.

Why should I bother reading patch notes?

Because skipping them means you might miss out. For example, one pet that was rare before is now slightly easier to find but only during this event window. Another had its damage nerfed, so if you’re grinding boss fights, you’ll want to switch pets sooner rather than later.

Players who check updates regularly tend to:

Get event-exclusive pets before they vanish
Avoid wasting time on outdated strategies
Spot new glitches early and report them for rewards

How do I unlock the new pets added in update 170?

Most of the new pets are tied to the active event. You’ll need to complete specific tasks like defeating certain mobs, collecting event currency, or reaching milestones in new zones. One pet even requires combining three lesser pets in a fusion machine that only appeared after the patch.

If you’re stuck, there’s a step-by-step walkthrough for unlocking each one over at this guide.

What rewards are only available right now?

Event-limited stuff includes:

Two glow-effect pets with unique idle animations
A backpack accessory that boosts coin gain by 8%
A title badge visible in leaderboards

These won’t come back in the same form, so if you want them, act before the timer runs out. The full reward list including drop rates and unlock conditions is laid out in this post.

Common mistakes players make after an update

- Assuming old meta pets still dominate (some got quietly nerfed)
- Ignoring the new event hub because it looks optional (it’s not key rewards are locked inside)
- Not checking known issues section (some “bugs” are actually intentional mechanics now)

Also, don’t trust third-party sites that copy-paste fake patch notes. Always cross-check with official channels or trusted community trackers like the game’s official page.
