QQ Pets Return Nearly 8 Years After Shutdown, Now Integrated with Hy3 Large Model

According to monitoring by Beating, Tencent has officially launched the new version of QQ Pets on mobile QQ. The original version was shut down in 2018, and nearly 8 years later, it has returned in the form of 3D virtual pets, now integrated with Tencent's Hy3 large model. Android and iOS users can search for 'QQ Pets' within QQ to claim their pet. The new version retains classic gameplay features such as feeding, bathing, working, and studying. Users can customize their pet's appearance and personality, and the pet will actively respond to its owner. It can also be dressed up and interacted with through tapping. Pets will appear in the chat list and chat box. Users can visit friends' homes to interact with their pets, such as feeding, bathing, and engaging in activities to renew 'sparks.' However, when the service was shut down in 2018, all old account and character data were completely cleared. This time, users will receive a new pet, as the one they raised back then is no longer retrievable. [Original link]
