Updated October 30, 2026: Season 1 Part 2 (“Departure with the Wind: Part 2”) went live on October 29 after maintenance. We added what’s new in the update, the event dates in UTC, the 500 Glimmer maintenance compensation, the October 29 balance changes, and GameWith’s tier list as revised on October 29. No new code came with the update: all 14 codes below were re-checked October 30, 2026, 06:00 UTC.
Fourteen Aniimo codes still work in Season 1 Part 2. Every one of them appears as active on four dated code lists, the newest re-checked on October 25, and Pawprint’s official X account hasn’t posted a new code since. Below are those codes, the steps to redeem them, what Season 1 Part 2 added, and a tier list built by comparing published rankings. Irisalis, Fulmintis, Glacy and Besauce are the names the lists put at 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. The update pushed it back up the charts: at 06:01 UTC on October 30 it was #4 on Steam’s global top sellers, with 36,137 players in-game on Steam at 05:59 UTC. The US App Store shows version 1.1.0 (released October 28, 23:55 UTC) and a 4.7-star average from 8,667 ratings.
Table of Contents
Quick answer
- New codes in Season 1 Part 2: none so far (checked October 30, 06:00 UTC). The newest codes date from September 25.
- 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 working codes, listed as active on all four dated lists we compared. Codes are case-sensitive.
- Free Glimmer from the update: 500 Glimmer maintenance compensation for players who registered before the October 29 update, sent in-game.
- Where: Settings (gear icon) > Account > Gift Code Redemption. Rewards arrive in your in-game Mail.
- Best Aniimo (our read of three rankings): Irisalis and Fulmintis for damage, Glacy for healing, Besauce or Somniwing for energy, Turbo for support. Anyone who had Irisalis before the update gets an item by mail that gives it perfect Innate Potential.
- 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.
- Season 1 Part 2: 51 new Aniimo, the Whisperwake Isles (4 regions), level caps raised to 70, and a 3-team PvP mode, Egg Heist’s “Giga-Egg” battle. The season runs until December 9, 23:59 UTC.
All working Aniimo codes (Season 1 Part 2, 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 four dated lists: Pocket Gamer (re-checked October 25), TechWiser (October 16), GameWith (October 15) and MeinMMO (October 9). Dexerto’s undated list shows the same 14. We also read the official @Aniimo_EN posts from October 20 to 30: there’s no code in them, and the Season 1 Part 2 patch notes don’t mention one either. This list was checked October 30, 2026, 06:00 UTC.
| Code | Reward (as most lists report it) | Dated lists that show it working |
|---|---|---|
| ANIIMOGIFT | 10 Glimmer, 20,000 Credits, 10 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 4 of 4 |
| aniimolaunch2026 | 50 Glimmer, 5 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 4 of 4 |
| aniimowelcome | 50 Glimmer, 5 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 4 of 4 |
| aniimofreetoplay | 50 Glimmer, 5 Growth Flowers, 5 Aniipod Pro | 4 of 4 |
| Aniimo2026 | 20 Glimmer | 4 of 4 |
| aniimobonus | 50 Glimmer, or 10,000 Credits + 5 Aniipods (lists disagree) | 4 of 4 |
| aniimotogether | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 4 of 4 |
| aniimoidyll | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 4 of 4 |
| aniimoopenworld | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 4 of 4 |
| anyoneaniimo | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 4 of 4 |
| twinewithaniimo | 10,000 Credits, 5 Aniipods | 4 of 4 |
| aniimonow | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 4 of 4 |
| anythinganiimo | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 4 of 4 |
| anywhereaniimo | 10,000 Credits, 3 Growth Flowers | 4 of 4 |
The lists disagree about a few rewards. Pocket Gamer, for example, now 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, TechWiser and Dexerto show it working. MeinMMO moved it to expired on October 9, and Pocket Gamer doesn’t list it. If you play on the Americas server, it costs nothing to try.
- aniimoparty (50 Glimmer): expired. Game.Guide dated the expiry to September 23, 2026, and GameWith and Dexerto list it as expired too. TechWiser still shows it, but it lists no expired codes at all.
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 Season 1 Part 2: what’s new in the October 29 update
Pawprint announced “Season 1: Departure with the Wind Part 2” on Steam on October 27 (patch notes) and on the official site. Servers were down from October 28, 22:00 UTC (Europe) or 23:00 UTC (Americas and Apac) until 07:00 UTC on October 29, and the official X account confirmed the end of maintenance at 07:01 UTC. The App Store calls it version 1.1.0. The main additions, per the patch notes:
- 51 new Aniimo. Four season-exclusive Prismana Aniimo (Jeburst, Glameep, Pouchwisp and Royalby), new regional Prismana Forms for Gachapus, Sugartini, Jabster and Whirlbite, and three headline additions: Hypnyto (Wind DPS, from the Companion Handbook), Prismana Eklue (Dark Breaker, Season Achievement reward) and Jaguaraun (Lightning Breaker, the first Aniimo co-created with players, which debuts in the “Fantasy Resonance” event from November 20).
- Whisperwake Isles: a new island map with four regions, Crescent Bay, Rosy Mirelands, Wildwater Gorge and Cloudreach Falls, plus a new story chapter. It unlocks automatically once you finish the prerequisite story quests.
- Higher caps: from character level 60, Dr. Lewis offers the “Trailblazer II” (Aniimo cap 60 to 65) and “Trailblazer III” (character and Aniimo caps to 70) promotions. Going past Aniimo level 60 now needs an Ascension, which uses an Evolution Item of the Aniimo’s main element.
- “Operation: Egg Heist” Giga-Egg mode: a 3-team PvP mode in testing, open daily from 18:00 to 24:00, for character level 50 and the Rising Egg Scout rank. Stats are balanced, and no gear or items are allowed in. The winning team gets a Giga-Egg, which is a guaranteed Umbral Egg with a small chance of a Prismana Egg.
- Quality of life: a new “Sparkling Hue” screen (unlocked hues can be swapped for Credits), a 4v4 Spar mode between friends, Holo-Battle Sim stages for Dark, Earth and Lightning, and a “Freshly Hatched Partner” boost for new players between levels 10 and 44.
Updating on iPhone? Pawprint said on X on October 29 that a technical issue means the iOS update needs more than 40 GB of free space while it installs. The game takes about 20 GB afterwards.
Aniimo tier list (Season 1 Part 2): 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 29 for Season 1 Part 2, ranks each Aniimo by party contribution and role), Game.Guide’s aggregate (the median spot across 10 tier lists, as of its October 15 rebuild) and OSLink’s ranking (SS to B, from September). No list ranks Hypnyto, Jaguaraun or the new Whisperwake Isles Aniimo yet. 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 |
| Eklue | Support (Prismana Eklue: Dark Breaker) | S | not checked | A | Solid; the new Prismana form isn’t ranked yet |
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.
October 29 balance changes that move the tier list
From the official known issues and fixes notice (October 28):
| Aniimo | Change | Effect (our read) |
|---|---|---|
| Irisalis | Owners get an “Irisalis Crystal Amber” by mail that sets perfect Innate Potential (ATK 10, REGEN 10, 5 in all other stats); a “Florae Descent” clone bug is fixed | Buff: the top DPS gets stronger |
| Inferlupa | “Flame Wolf Assault” energy cost 20 to 15, cooldown 1 s to 20 s | Mixed |
| Ignitis | “Fire Dash” Might 15 to 22, cooldown 1 s to 10 s | Mixed |
| Sherro | “Flowing Water Slash” cooldown 5 s to 3 s; “Prismana Slam” energy 20 to 15, cooldown 1 s to 10 s | Mixed |
| Hexxin | ATK 88 to 100, all skill Might +20% | Buff |
| Fenmane | “Thunder Imprint” Might 1 to 2 per hit | Buff |
| Panpanta | “Splash Shield” 8% to 11% | Buff |
| Lavazar | “Fiery Punch” energy cost 10 to 20 | Nerf |
| Fulmintis, Besauce, Thornblade | Bug fixes so skills work as described | Small fixes |
Affected Aniimo, including Tuckin, Panpanta, Sherro and Hexxin, can have their levels and materials reset once for free until November 13 at 04:00. If you invested in one of them before the update, that’s the window to rebuild.
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 for Season 1 Part 2?
Not yet (checked October 30, 06:00 UTC). The Season 1 Part 2 patch notes and the official X posts since October 20 contain no code. GameWith dates the newest batch (aniimonow, anythinganiimo, anywhereaniimo) to September 25. The update’s free reward is the 500 Glimmer maintenance compensation instead. Pawprint posts codes on its Discord and social accounts, often around events, so check back during the November events.
When does Aniimo Season 1 Part 2 end?
The Season 1 Part 2 content (Companion Handbook, Season Achievement and Stamp Shop) ends on December 9 at 23:59 UTC on all three servers, according to the patch notes. Most other events, including the Home Season, run until December 10 at 03:59 server time.
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. The App Store download is about 4 GB, but the Season 1 Part 2 update needs more than 40 GB of free space while it installs.
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.
