Dino Hunters New World: Schedule, Start Times & Next Countdown
New World is one of the recurring events in Dino Hunters, the Roblox dinosaur-hunting game from Fishgig Game. It isn’t a one-off drop — it comes back on a steady rhythm, running about every ~56 days and each time opening a fresh region for players to explore and new dinosaurs to track down.
Dino Hunters keeps a busy lobby, with about 3,400 hunters in-game at the moment and more than 21 million visits logged over its lifetime. New World has run 2 times so far, and the next one is set for Friday, October 9 at 6 AM ET. The next time and the usual start windows are on the card below.

How often New World runs
New World returns roughly every eight weeks — about every ~56 days between runs. When it comes around, it opens across two set slots, both on a Friday:
| Window | Start time (ET) |
|---|---|
| Early slot | Fridays, 6:00 AM ET |
| Later slot | Fridays, 10:00 AM ET |
Two windows exist so hunters in different parts of the world can all reach the event, rather than it opening once at a time convenient for only one region. The times above are in Eastern Time; the card also lists them across the major world time zones — the US, UK, Europe, India, Japan and Australia — so you can find the slot that lines up with your day. The next date is confirmed rather than an estimate, so the return on the schedule is the one to plan around.
What happens in New World
As the name suggests, each New World opens up a brand-new area to explore inside Dino Hunters. That means fresh hunting grounds and new dinosaurs to find and take down, alongside the core loop of tracking, hunting and progressing that the game is built around. Because a new region is the whole point of the event, it’s one of the bigger moments on the game’s calendar — worth logging in for even if you usually dip in and out.
Tips for catching it
- Pick whichever of the two Friday windows falls at a reasonable hour for you — the 6:00 AM and 10:00 AM ET slots are four hours apart, so most regions get at least one manageable option.
- Set a reminder for the day before. New World only comes around every couple of months, so it’s easy to lose track of between runs.
- If you miss it, don’t stress — it isn’t a limited one-time event. The region stays, and the pattern brings the next New World around on schedule.
How New World fits into Dino Hunters
New World is the slower-burn tentpole on the game’s schedule. Between these region drops, Dino Hunters keeps things moving with more frequent additions like its New Content Update, and there’s a New season on the way as well. Updates like Mega Evo Update — which has run before and is live again now — and the earlier Raptor Update show the same habit — the developer layers regular smaller updates on top of the occasional large one, and New World sits firmly in that second, marquee category.
