Meet the Burrowbuck, a peculiar horned hare that seems pulled straight from folklore. Skittish but clever, this elusive creature is quick to vanish when threatened, kicking up blinding dirt before burrowing out of sight in the blink of an eye.


Those patient enough to earn its trust will discover there’s more to the Burrowbuck than meets the eye. Beneath the ground lies a surprisingly useful network of tunnels… though not every entrance leads where you might expect.
Good luck, Survivors. Around here, the lucky rabbit’s foot tends to kick back.
The
Burrowbuck
will be available on day one as the first release in our upcoming
Fantastic Tames Season 1 pack ($9.99)
. At launch, we’ll also reveal the designs for the two remaining creatures, which will roll out to pack owners as they’re completed throughout 2026.
