The follow features were highlights in the trailer:
Note - Exact wording used as featured in-video

- Games shown specifically were Meerca Chase II and Kass Basher.
- "Do Dailies & Earn Prizes!"
- The Wheel of Excitement and the Fruit Machine were showcased.
Trivia
- Interestingly, one of the names given, Neopets Mobile, seems to imply that it is meant to be a successor to the original mobile app.
- The application itself was foreshadowed by the mysterious "mobile" versions of games that briefly appeared on-site.[2][3]
- Shortly after it's announcement, sporadic claims that Coco Roller and Lutari Island would be resurrected through the application appeared, though this has yet to be confirmed.
