Fourteen Aniimo codes are working right now, according to the five most recent dated code lists we could find. Each one appears as active on at least four of those lists, which were checked between October 9 and October 18, 2026. Below are those Aniimo codes, the steps to redeem them, and a tier list we assembled by comparing three published rankings. Irisalis, Fulmintis, Somniwing and Glacy are the names every list puts near the top.
Aniimo is Pawprint Studio’s free-to-play creature-catching open-world RPG. It launched in September 2026 on PC (Steam), PS5, Xbox Series X|S, iPhone and Android. On October 19 it held a “Mostly Positive” Steam rating (73% of 26,582 reviews) and a 4.6-star average from 7,416 ratings on the US App Store.

Quick answer
- Codes to redeem first: ANIIMOGIFT, aniimolaunch2026, aniimowelcome and aniimofreetoplay. Each gives 50 Glimmer or 20,000 Credits plus Aniipod Pro and Growth Flowers.
- Total: 14 codes appear on four or five of the five lists we checked (updated October 9-18, 2026). Codes are case-sensitive.

- Best Aniimo (our read of three rankings): Irisalis and Fulmintis for damage, Glacy for healing, Somniwing for energy.
- Starter: pick Lunara (ranged, self-healing) if you’re new to the genre, or Helion (melee burst) if you’re not. You can’t switch later.
- This week: a Companion Handbook EXP boost started October 19, and the Home Season’s “Harvest Gathering” opens October 20 at 20:00 UTC on every server.
All working Aniimo codes (October 2026)
Pawprint posts new codes on its official Discord (a “gift-codes” channel) and on social media. We can’t read that Discord directly, so we followed our own rule: a code goes on this list only when several dated code lists agree it works. We compared five lists: Pocket Gamer (checked October 18), TechWiser (October 16), GameWith (October 15), Game.Guide (October 11) and MeinMMO (October 9). This list was checked October 19, 2026, 14:00 UTC.
| Code | Reward (as most lists report it) | Lists that show it working |
|---|---|---|
| ANIIMOGIFT | 10 Glimmer, 20,000 Credits, 10 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 5 of 5 |
| aniimolaunch2026 | 50 Glimmer, 5 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 5 of 5 |
| aniimowelcome | 50 Glimmer, 5 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 5 of 5 |
| aniimofreetoplay | 50 Glimmer, 5 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 5 of 5 |
| Aniimo2026 | 20 Glimmer | 5 of 5 |
| aniimobonus | 50 Glimmer, or 10,000 Credits + 5 Aniipods (lists disagree) | 5 of 5 |
| aniimotogether | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 5 of 5 |
| aniimoidyll | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 5 of 5 |
| aniimoopenworld | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 5 of 5 |
| anyoneaniimo | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 5 of 5 |
| twinewithaniimo | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 5 of 5 |
| aniimonow | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 4 of 5 |
| anythinganiimo | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 4 of 5 |
| anywhereaniimo | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 4 of 5 |
The lists disagree about a few rewards. One list, for example, shows twinewithaniimo and aniimotogether paying out Glimmer instead of Credits. The rewards above are what the majority report, and your Mail shows the real contents once you redeem. Type ANIIMOGIFT in capitals and Aniimo2026 with a capital A.
Disputed and expired codes
- aniimazingfroyo (20 Glimmer, US/North America server only): GameWith and TechWiser show it working. MeinMMO moved it to expired on October 9, and Pocket Gamer and Game.Guide don’t list it. If you play on the Americas server, it costs nothing to try.
- aniimoparty (50 Glimmer): expired. Game.Guide dates the expiry to September 23, 2026, and GameWith lists it as expired too.
How to redeem Aniimo codes
- Play through the opening tutorial until the main menu opens up.
- Open the menu and select the gear icon to go to Settings.
- Pick the Account tab, then Gift Code Redemption.
- Paste one code, press Redeem, and repeat for the next code.
- Collect the rewards from Mail (the envelope icon on the right of the main menu). According to MeinMMO, the mailbox unlocks a little later in the story than codes do, after the quest “Chasing the Clouds”. Anything you redeem before then waits for you.
| Error message | What it means |
|---|---|
| Invalid Gift Code | The code was mistyped. Codes are case-sensitive, so copy and paste them. |
| Gift Code Redemption Limit Reached | You already used this code on this account, or it has expired. |
GameWith suggests restarting the game if a correct, active code keeps failing. Each code works once per account.
Aniimo tier list (October 2026): best Aniimo ranked
This tier list is our assessment, not a test result: GamingRoute’s writers are AI and have not played Aniimo. We compared three published rankings: GameWith’s tier list (updated October 14, ranks each Aniimo by party contribution and role), Game.Guide’s aggregate (the median spot across 10 tier lists, rebuilt October 15) and OSLink’s ranking (SS to B, undated). Where all three agree, the pick is safe. Where they split, the table says so.

| Aniimo | Role | GameWith | Game.Guide median | OSLink | Our read |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Irisalis | DPS (Grass) | SS (Prismana Form) | S | SS | Top pick |
| Fulmintis | DPS | SS | S | S | Top pick |
| Glacy | Healer | SS (Prismana Form), S (base) | A | S | Top pick (best as Prismana) |
| Somniwing | Energy regen | A+ overall, S+ for energy (Prismana Form) | S | SS | Top pick for energy |
| Lunara | Starter, ranged | not ranked | S | S | Strong |
| Helion | Starter, melee | not ranked | S | S | Strong |
| Gracewing | Healer | S | S | B | Strong |
| Inferlupa | BREAK | S+ | A | S | Strong |
| Dreaple | Attack support | S+ | A | A | Strong in groups |
| Stellarys | DPS (ranged) | S | A | A | Solid |
| Turbo | All-round support | SS | A | A | Split, but safe |
| Thornblade | DPS (Grass, melee) | SS | A | A | Split, but safe |
| Besauce | Energy regen | SS | A | not ranked | Split |
| Rookey | BREAK | S | B | SS | Disputed |
| Tromber | Support | S+ | B | SS | Disputed |
Why the top picks rank there
- Irisalis: its clones attack alongside it from range, and it can revive itself once every few minutes (GameWith). OSLink also puts it in its top tier.
- Fulmintis: a crit buff and a charge mechanic keep its energy topped up, and its multi-hit blade rush turns that energy into heavy damage. GameWith adds that it gets better next to a BREAK partner.
- Glacy: its heal follows the party instead of sitting in one spot. Its Prismana Form adds Glimmer Shot, which GameWith says raises the whole team’s damage by 15% for 20 seconds.
- Somniwing and Besauce: the two energy suppliers. GameWith names Besauce the best energy supplier in the game right now, while Game.Guide’s median and OSLink both rank Somniwing above it.
- Dreaple (a frequent search): OSLink says it builds Drowsiness stacks that put enemies to sleep and lower their Dark resistance, and that it is worth more in group play. Both of the other lists rate it at least A.
One caveat that every source repeats: element matchups matter more than tiers. An SS Aniimo still loses damage against an enemy that resists its element.
Helion or Lunara: which starter should you pick?
Both starters are Holy element, so the choice is about play style, not matchups. You can’t change it afterwards, according to GameWith’s starter guide.
| Helion | Lunara | |
|---|---|---|
| Range | Melee | Ranged |
| Trait | Solar Grace: +30% final damage against targets without an elemental advantage; every 4 basic attacks boost the next skill | Lunar Power: +30% final damage against targets without an elemental advantage; skills grant 4 Silver Moon Marks, and each basic attack that uses one deals 100% extra damage and heals 0.5% HP |
| Ultimate | Helios’ Judgment | Selene’s Judgment |
| Best for | Players who know the genre and want hands-on burst damage | First-timers who want a forgiving, sustain-focused style |
Which Prismana Aniimo to take from the Prismana Pact
The official site confirms that reaching Grade I Wayfarer gives you a Prismana Form Aniimo of your choice. GameWith says Wayfarer I needs Character Level 40 plus the related story quest, and you can change your pick freely until you claim it. The usual advice is to take Glacy if you want a healer that lasts into late-game content, or Ignitis, Stellarys or Magmarex if you want damage or BREAK right away. You can still get the Prismana forms you skip later by collecting 60 units of the event currency, unlocking weather change and switching an area to its Prismana weather.
Fastest way to level up in Aniimo (beginner tips)
New players hit Character Level gates in the main story, so EXP is the early bottleneck. These numbers come from GameWith’s early-game guide:
| EXP source | EXP | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Story progress | about 1,000-1,200 per step | Also unlocks new systems |
| Daily Quests | up to 3,000 per day | Do these every day |
| Catching a new Aniimo | 300 (first catch only) | Look for the “New” tag next to the name |
| Elite Training | 100-500 | Good filler between story quests |
| Quests and Journeys | about 300-1,000 | Grab them as you pass by |
- Get movement Aniimo early: Pranky (Swim Lv2, around Nimbus Fields), Cornet (Fly Lv2, evolves from Chirpi at level 18) and Bolty (Climb Lv2, common in Blitzwood). Higher movement levels mean faster travel.
- Bring a BREAK Aniimo: Shrubclaw (evolves from Budclaw at level 21) drains enemy BREAK gauges quickly. Breaking an enemy raises your capture rate, and a broken Alpha can’t act for a while.
- Feed Lumin Amber to Branches: 10 Amber gives +10% capture rate in Breezy Plains, and 20 Amber raises your stamina cap by 10%.
- Come back at different times: some Aniimo only appear in certain weather or at certain times of day, according to Steam’s store description and GameWith.
- Codes first: the Aniipods and Aniipod Pro from the codes above make early catches cheaper.

FAQ
Are there new Aniimo codes this week?
We found no code added after October 1. GameWith dates the newest batch (aniimonow, anythinganiimo, anywhereaniimo) to September 25, and Game.Guide logs aniimofreetoplay as added October 1. New codes usually arrive with updates and events, so check again after the next patch.
Why is my Aniimo code not working?
Usually it’s capitalization or a code you already used. “Invalid Gift Code” means it was mistyped, and “Redemption Limit Reached” means it’s used up or expired. aniimazingfroyo only works on the US/North America server.
Is Aniimo on mobile and consoles?
Yes. It is free on PC (Steam and the official launcher), PS5, Xbox Series X|S, iPhone and Android. The iOS version needs iOS 15 or later and is a 3.7 GB download.
Can you change your starter in Aniimo?
No. GameWith says the Helion or Lunara pick is permanent, and it isn’t confirmed whether the other starter can be caught later.
