Players will be able to collect and merge with fantastical creatures in the newly announced creature collecting ARPG, Aniimo. Developed by Pawprint Studio and published by Kingslory, it was revealed today during the Xbox Showcase.
A free-to-play game, Aniimo promises “ a groundbreaking game where players collect and merge with magical creatures called Aniimo (through the unique ‘Twining’ mechanic) to explore uncharted landscapes, solve ancient mysteries, and master dynamic gameplay in a journey of discovery. Players can sign up for an exclusive closed beta test on www.aniimo.com.”
Its key features include:
- Discovery of the Aniimo, beautifully rendered magical creatures which players can seek, capture, battle, upgrade, develop, research and evolve as they progress through the game.
- The interactive and expansive open world of Idyll inhabited by the Aniimo, providing multiple options for Aniimo to grow and evolve, and the perfect stage for them to shine.
- The merging of players and their Aniimo, known as Twining, whereby players will unlock more abilities, different perspectives, and new and unique ways to play.
“Like every other player, the Aniimo team has always believed that one day, there will be a game that exists that makes all our dreams come true. Instead of waiting any longer, we created it ourselves” said Jovi Zhang, Executive Producer, Pawprint Studio. “Every day we are discovering more about the Aniimo’s personalities, their interactions, their stories and their environment. The world of Aniimo is now ready for you to explore with us, and we can’t wait to see you there!”
Aniimo is coming to Xbox and PC.
