New Local Tama Search Characters Added to Tamagotchi Uni at Bandai Namco Cross Stores

The Tama Search was one of the best features added to the Tamagotchi Uni via software update, and the fun isn’t over yet. You’ve still got to meet all 100 characters!

Bandai Namco is adding 5 characters that they’re calling local Tamagotchi as they can only be found at Bandai Namco Cross stores throughout Japan. The characters are aligned geographically to the area in which the store is. How thoughtful is that? Be sure to update to version 2.6.0 before heading to these stores.

Major July Tamagotchi Uni Software Update will Introduce Tama Search Feature

It looks like we will not be sleeping the entire month of July, because it’s a BUSY MONTH for Tamagotchi! Bandai has just teased a new feature that is going to be included in the major Tamagotchi Uni software update! The last time we had a major software update was back in November 2023, and it brought some impressive features!

The Tama Search feature will allow you to search for a Tamagotchi character within your area. Connecting your Tamagotchi Uni to an individual access point will allow you to meet a total of 100 different characters like Miraitchi, Clulutchi, and Oyajitchi, which are characters you cannot raise on the Tamagotchi Uni. Something special might happen if you meet them several times and become friends.

You’ll receive stickers for each character you meet, and you’ll build up your collection in the Tamagotchi Uni. Additional characters will be added through future software updates. Further details will follow closer to the major July Tamagotchi Uni software update.

Bandai Details New Tama Search Feature Arriving in Tamagotchi Uni Version 2.0 Update

The Tama Search feature was briefly teased a few weeks ago, but now Bandai has provided more information on the highly anticipated feature that should be arriving soon with the Tamagotchi Uni version 2.0 software update on Wednesday, July 10th, 2024.

This feature will allow you to search for Tamagotchi characters within your area! You’ll be able to meet up to 100 different characters like Miraitchi, Clulutchi, and Oyajitchi, which are characters you couldn’t meet on the Tamagotchi Uni alone without this new feature. As you meet other Tamagotchi characters you’ll receive stickers from them and you can build up your sticker collection. There will be over 100 characters to meet, but they will slowly be added via software update, Bandai has provided the image above to detail some of the characters you’ll need from the new version 2.0 software update.

How can you use Tama Search? From your Tamagotchi’s room, press the “C” button, you’ll then be asked if you wish to go to Tama Search, select “Yes”. Then you’ll be brought outside with a spaceship guiding you. When a Tamagotchi character is found, an alphanumeric ID will pop up, pick the ID you want to check out. The Tamagotchi Characters you can meet will show up in the upper right-hand corner. You’ll then meet the Tamagotchi character, and they’ll give you a sticker! Become friends by meeting them every day and they might invite you to their rooms!

As a reminder, this feature is not yet live, it will be made available with the release of the Tamagotchi Uni version 2.0 software update which will roll out on Wednesday, July 10th, 2024. Characters available will depend on your location.
