Overview
As a Pathfinder, you roam Idyll catching wild Aniimo with devices called Aniipods, building a collection of companions that can evolve into stronger forms. The standout mechanic, Twining, lets you merge with a captured Aniimo to glide, dive, burrow, and fight as the creature itself, summed up by the game's motto, Be One Be All.
Beyond solo adventuring, Aniimo offers competitive and cooperative play. The Egg Heist mode pits teams against one another in real time, while your personal RV and Homeland give you a base to farm, build, and decorate. Aniimo is developed by Pawprint Studio and published by Kingsglory, a label of FunPlus; see Development for release details. First revealed in June 2025, the game surpassed 10 million global pre-registrations ahead of its planned Q3 2026 launch. The official creature index now catalogues 94 Aniimo across nine elemental affinities, and the sky-floating metropolis of Astra anchors the game's social hub.
