Questions players ask
How do I get into the Aniimo beta?
You can't any more — the third and final test, the Global Closed Beta, ended on July 25, 2026. Each test used a questionnaire on the official site; selected players got an email (subject line "You are in!") with a download link or Steam key.
Is there an Aniimo open beta?
No open beta was held or announced. The next playable build is the launch on September 16, 2026.
Does closed beta progress reset?
Yes, every test was a data-wipe test. The exception is one Aniimo per player sealed during the Reunion Promise (Feb 8, 2026) or Bond Pact (Jul 24-25, 2026) events, plus the Second Closed Beta frame from the Starlight Festival.
How long was the Aniimo closed beta?
Test one ran seven days (Jul 4-10, 2025). Test two ran about sixteen days (Jan 23-Feb 8, 2026). The Global Closed Beta ran about sixteen days (Jul 9-25, 2026).
How do I verify my beta status?
The official site had a "Verify Beta Status" button that checked the email from your questionnaire. It applied to the closed tests only.
