Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions about Aniimo.
▸What is Aniimo?
Aniimo is a free-to-play, next-gen creature-catching open-world action RPG by Pawprint Studio (published by FunPlus). You play a Wayfarer exploring the continent of Idyll, catching creatures called Aniimo and Twining with them to fight in real-time action combat. It launched September 16, 2026 on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with mobile following September 23.
▸Is Aniimo free to play?
Yes — the base game is free on all platforms (Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox PC app, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, iOS and Android). Monetization covers cosmetics, a Companion Handbook battle pass and a monthly pass; there is no gacha — every Aniimo can be caught in the wild.
▸Is Aniimo a gacha game?
No. PC Gamer confirmed Aniimo has no banner or pity system: all Aniimo, gear and eggs come from playing, not random pulls. A gacha-like "Rift Exploration" event from the final beta was removed before launch after community backlash.
▸Does Aniimo have crossplay and cross-save?
Yes. PC, PS5, Xbox and mobile share progress within the same server (America / Europe / Apac) once your accounts are linked to an Aniimo Pass. Important: the linking popup on PSN/Microsoft accounts appears only once at first login — skipping it permanently splits your account.
▸Which starter should I pick, Helion or Lunara?
Both are Light-element DPS with identical stats; the real difference is playstyle. Lunara (ranged) is the safer pick for most players; Helion (melee burst) suits aggressive players. The choice is permanent — you cannot get the other starter later in the current version.
▸Is Aniimo on Nintendo Switch?
No. Aniimo is not available or announced for Nintendo Switch or Switch 2. FunPlus's official platform list covers PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and mobile only.
