Aniimo Global CBT 2026: Status, Dates and How to Join

The sourced record of Aniimo's Global Closed Beta Test: what it confirmed, what it previewed and how sign-ups worked. It ran from 9 to 25 July 2026 and ended with a full data wipe.

By Irissia Updated 13 September 2026

This is the sourced record of Aniimo’s Global Closed Beta Test (CBT), the last and largest pre-launch test. It ran from 9 to 25 July 2026 and ended with a full data wipe, ahead of the 16 September 2026 global launch. Everything below stays pinned to official sources.

Ended 25 July 2026

The Global CBT ran from July 9 to July 25, 2026 (UTC+8), following pre-download on July 8. It was a limited-access, non-charging, data-wipe test: the servers closed on 25 July and all test data was deleted (official notice). The one bridge to launch is the Bond Pact: each Pathfinder sealed one Aniimo, to reclaim at the global launch (details).

Roster

The full launch roster is far larger than any single beta; we document each Aniimo as it's officially confirmed

Dates, platforms and the data-wipe framing are all per the official aniimo.com download guide. One correction worth flagging: some third-party outlets billed this test as Steam-exclusive, but the official guide lists all four platforms.

The beta timeline so far

  1. ~July 2025 CB1 PC · Xbox
  2. Jan 23 – Feb 8, 2026 CB2 "Paws Up" PC · iOS
  3. July 9 – 25, 2026 Global CBT PC · iOS · Android · Steam
  4. 16 September 2026 Global launch PC · PS5 · Xbox · iOS · Android

So the Global CBT was the third test and the first to run across PC and both mobile platforms together, the closest preview of the launch build.

What is teased for it

FunPlus trailed several headline additions for the Global CBT. Treat them as build-stage features that can still change at launch.

How to sign up

The Global CBT sign-up questionnaire closed on 5 July 2026 and the test itself ended on 25 July, so there is nothing left to join. These official funnels stay useful for launch rewards:

  • Pre-registration and lucky draw at aniimo.com (the pre-reg draw has listed prizes like an iPhone 17 Pro Max, a PS5 and gift cards).
  • Global Vote at aniimo.com/vote_2026, the popularity poll tied to a Regal Form reward.
  • Creator Program at aniimo.com/creator, which included CBT access for accepted creators.

Carry-over: the Global CBT ended with all test data deleted, so beta accounts do not transfer to launch. The one exception is the Bond Pact: each Pathfinder sealed one Aniimo in an egg, to reclaim at the global launch (aniimo.com). For how access worked, see the beta access guide.
