On this fresh Monday morning, you might expect a dearth of news to discuss given that the weekend has ended. However, the past two days have been brimming with exciting announcements at various events. One of the most captivating reveals was for Aniimo, an upcoming creature-collecting ARPG from Pawprint Studios, which was introduced with a stunning trailer.

At the Xbox Games Showcase 2025, Aniimo was introduced, a game published by the fresh FunPlus label Kingsglory. In this game, you journey into the enchanting realm of Idyll, inhabited by the characters named Aniimo. You won’t just gather them; instead, you’ll combine with these peculiar creatures and take control of them to traverse the terrain using their unique abilities. These abilities will also help you discover secret areas within the game.

The animated film titled Aniimo is expected to hit the screens in 2026, and it has been announced that a closed beta test will occur this summer. For those eagerly awaiting updates about Aniimo, including the upcoming beta test, sign-up on the official Aniimo website to stay informed.

The central feature of the game demonstrated in the trailer is called Twining – this is when you can combine with your Aniimo. This unique twist sets it apart in the popular creature collection genre, which has witnessed numerous releases over the last few years. Yet, Aniimo boasts not only significant financial support but also striking graphics that are visually appealing.

Without a doubt, Aniimo doesn’t skimp on well-known support or features, and even though it’s entering a genre that already has plenty of choices, it seems poised to be a strong competitor. So, mark your calendars for 2026, or sign up to possibly join the exclusive beta test!

Could it potentially be a strong candidate for next year’s Pocket Gamer People’s Choice Awards? Given the excellent mobile games released this year that have made our list of top games of 2025 (thus far), it’s likely to encounter tough competition.
