Console Wizards, we have a big update on the way! Next week, we’re bringing the Darkmoor update and the Spring 2026 Rank 5 Magic Weaving update to Wizard101 Console—along with a brand-new feature that lets you redeem console promotional codes right in the game. 

We know you’ve been waiting, and we’re excited to share what’s coming, what’s changing behind the scenes, and what’s next for our console players. 

This release brings together the  

Darkmoor update

• Shadow Pacts 

• Guild Improvements 

• Radial Wheel 

• Beastmoon Schedule Updates 

• Misc. Bugs 

• Spell Changes 

Spring 2026 Rank 5 Magic Weaving update.

• Hidden Temple Gauntlet (Will be released after the holidays) 

• Rank 5 Magic Weaving 

• Spellement System 2.0 

• New Arc 1 Spellement Paths 

• Decorator Buddies 

• Abberant Paradox Boss Rematch 

• Karamelle Challenge Mode 

• Portal of Peril 

• Magic Mirror Shop Updates

• PvP Changes

• Beastmoon Schedule Updates 

• First Time User Experience Updates 

We’re excited to get both of these major updates into your hands and give you more to explore on console. 

For more information on all of the changes please take a look at the GAME UPDATES section on the website once the update notes are out early next week. 

New content isn’t the only thing arriving with this release. We’re also adding in-game code redemption, giving console players a way to take part in promotional codes and giveaways. 

Here’s the important part: console codes will be separate from PC codes. You’ll need a code made specifically for console; PC codes cannot be redeemed on console. 

The Promo Code entry screen will be from the classroom (Character Select) and when a code is properly redeemed the item will be waiting for you in the gift box once you go into game with a character. Make sure you redeem the item on the character you want, as some items may not be able to be transferred in the shared bank. 

To celebrate, we’ll release our first console promo code on launch day, featuring a console-exclusive housing item. We can’t wait to help you add a little console pride to your home! 

This update took longer than we expected, and we appreciate your patience. Behind the scenes, we’ve been improving how we put console updates together so that our part of the process is more streamlined. 

Those changes should help us work at a quicker pace going forward. Every console update still needs to pass console certification, so that remains an important step before release that we do not have control over. We’re encouraged by the improvements on our side, and look forward to seeing how smoothly the next update can go. 

We’re starting work on your next update now! We’ll have more to share about what it will include over the next few months. For now, we’re looking forward to getting this release into your hands. 

It’s been a great year for Wizard101 Console, and that’s thanks to all of you. Thank you for playing, for your patience as we’ve worked on this update, and for being part of our console community. 

We’re excited to keep bringing you new content. See you in the Spiral!
