- Aniimo launched worldwide on September 16, 2026 for PC, PS5 and Xbox. The iOS and Android versions release on September 23, 2026.
- Is Aniimo free to play?

- Is Aniimo a gacha game?
- It is free to play with optional paid currency and a published drop-rate page on the official site, so paid randomised pulls exist. You can progress without paying, and creatures are caught in the world rather than only pulled.
