Aniimo's release, the monster catching and collecting game by Pawprint Studio, is just hours away.
Arriving first on PS5, Xbox Series X / S and PC, then a week later on mobiles, it'll be free-to-play on whatever platform you decide on - with cross-saves available allowing you to pick up progress later if you switch devices.
This guide explains the Aniimo release time and date in your region and for your platform of choice.
Aniimo release time on PS5, PC, Xbox Series: What time does Aniimo release in UK, Europe and the US?
Aniimo has a PC and console release time of 10am UTC+8 on 16th September, which is the following in Europe and the Americas:
- BST (UK): 3am (Wednesday 16th)
- CEST (Western Europe): 4am (Wednesday 16th)
- EDT (East Coast Americas): 10pm (Tuesday 15th)
- PDT (West Coast Americas): 7pm (Tuesday 15th)
This means, depending on where you are, you're either playing late on Tuesday night, or in the early hours on Wednesday.
A note that, as with all online games, there's a chance there will be some network issues at launch as everyone logs in at once. The closed beta test has hopefully prepared the developers for launch - but if issues do arise, remember to be patient and try again later.
As such, if you are in Europe, getting a good night's sleep and holding out into the morning might be wise!

Aniimo release date on mobile for iOS and Android
Aniimo has a mobile release date of Wednesday, 23rd September - that's one week later than on PC and consoles.
As for a specific release time, one hasn't been disclosed at the time of writing - but we imagine it'll be similar, if not the same, as what's listed above.
