Aniimo is coming to iOS and Android on September 23: pre-loading of the mobile version is already open

Developers from Pawprint Studio are preparing a mobile launch of Aniimo, a free action-RPG about capturing and raising fantastic creatures. The iOS and Android versions will be released on September 23, 2026, and are already open for pre-download on the App Store and Google Play.

Aniimo is reminiscent of the classic Pokémon formula, but with a notable difference: Twine's mechanics allow you to directly control a captured creature—flying it through the sky, digging dungeons, solving puzzles, and battling other Aniimo without the intermediary of menu commands.

Platforms and progression

The desktop and console versions of Aniimo were released on September 16 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The game is distributed according to a free-to-play model: the main content is available for free, and monetization is built around cosmetics and boosters. Within a week of launch, the project gathered a noticeable audience, and the mobile release should significantly expand the player base.

Aniimo provides cooperative activities: raids on rare creatures, joint exploration of the open world and PvP battles. Progression is based on the evolution of captured creatures - rare forms change not only their appearance, but also the set of available abilities.
