The Bubblegum Machine is the highlight of the next update. Compared to the Rainbow Machine, which demands Gold characters, this variant will require you to deposit 10 Candy characters. Once activated, Brainrots that appear on the ramp will have a chance of getting the Bubblegum Trait.

You can prepare for the upcoming update by participating in multiple Candy Aurora events. Purchase and hoard characters with the Candy Mutation, since they will be required to activate the Bubblegum Machine. If you have less space in your base, perform Rebirths to increase its capacity.

Besides the Bubblegum Machine, the developers are planning to add four new characters with the next Steal a Brainrot update. The list includes Avocadini Guffo (Epic), Strawberrelli Flamingelli (Legendary), Ballerino Lololo (Brainrot God), and an unnamed Secret Brainrot.

The next update will also introduce a new event. It is most likely to occur half an hour before or after the update rolls out. Similar to other events, the new one could introduce a new Trait in the game.
