Free Realms offers new pets and mounts

If you spent all of your Station Cash on a T-Rex mount in Free Realms last month, it may be time to refill your coffers.

Sony Online Entertainment introduced some new Free Realms pets in the game yesterday, as well as some fancy new designs for the mounts. You can now add a groundhog to your pet collection as well as an owl (we're going to have to ask you not to name it Hedwig. Thanks.) The owl, of course, flies alongside you, while the groundhog burrows under the ground, popping his head up when you stop to see where you've led him.

If you're more interested in mounts, you'll be happy to hear that the Spotted T-Rex and the Scaled Dragon are now part of the list of available mounts, and both are available in six different colors. These are new versions of the recently introduced T-Rex and Flying Dragon mounts introduced in February, so if you liked those and are ready for some variety, head over to the Free Realms site for all the information.
