Aniimo Update and Codes: Version 1.1 Calendar, Events, and Redemption

Aniimo’s September 23, 2026 update is version 1.1. The official notice schedules the maintenance window for 00:00–10:00 UTC+8 and says the worldwide mobile release follows it. The event calendar is not one universal clock: several activities begin at 04:00 on each server’s local schedule, while the Irisalis stage begins at 10:00 server time. For redeem codes, the official update notice does not publish a current active-code list. Treat circulating code names and rewards as unconfirmed until the game accepts them.

Version 1.1 at a glance

Version 1.1 pairs the mobile launch with a new seasonal chapter, event rotations, and system changes. The official notice is dated September 21 and schedules the update for September 23. Regional maintenance windows are Europe: September 22, 16:00 UTC to September 23, 02:00 UTC; Americas: September 22, 12:00–22:00 UTC−4; Asia-Pacific: September 23, 00:00–10:00 UTC+8.

The notice says maintenance may take longer or finish earlier depending on progress. Restart the client after service resumes to load the updated build. See the separate server-status guide for recovery details. The calendar uses each server’s schedule; UTC+8 is not every region’s local clock.

September 25: Irisalis and the seasonal chapter

The Irisalis stage of Legendary Journey: Windchaser’s Departure opens September 25 at 10:00 server time and runs through December 10. In the Asia-Pacific schedule, the end is December 10 at 07:59 UTC+8; the Europe and Americas end times differ. The listed unlock point is Student I.

This is a staged reward path. A weekly-limited source supplies Iris Petals. Spend the required petals to craft the Legendary Aniipod: Irisalis; crafting it unlocks the Rift Space where Irisalis resides. After befriending Irisalis, its exclusive Transmog ability becomes available. The same seasonal chapter then offers the Legendary Aniipod: Windchaser’s Departure. The official notice says a catch made with that pod is guaranteed to succeed, have Perfect Innate Potential, appear in Sparkling Form, and carry the season’s exclusive perks.

The 100% guarantee applies to this named seasonal pod, not every Aniimo, egg, or capture item.

Event windows from September 25 to October 29

Glamour Star runs from September 25 at 04:00 to October 2 at 03:59 on the regional schedule and requires Student II. Its first listed theme is Floral Soirée. Choose an Aniimo, equip accessories to match the theme, and submit the entry; the event scores the match and pays rewards at score milestones.

Aniimo Discovery shares the September 25 opening and remains available through October 9 at 03:59. It also requires Student II. The event asks you to spend Search Attempts to track and capture the featured Aniimo, then complete related research quests. Free attempts refill periodically, but unused free attempts do not accumulate. Once they run out, Vein Essence can pay for more searches. Search buffs unlock as research progresses.

Vein Abundance rotates its featured Prismana form by area. From September 28 at 04:00 through October 5 at 03:59, Prismana Form Melloblum appears in Rosetower Woods. From October 5 at 04:00 through October 12 at 03:59, Prismana Form Waleetle appears in Berylline Vale. Student II is the stated unlock point. The named area matters: these are not two forms scheduled to appear everywhere at once.

Journey Chronicles opens October 1 at 04:00 and closes October 29 at 03:59, with Student I as its unlock requirement. It is a login event: log in on the required number of days during the window to receive travel gifts and preserve moments with your Aniimos.

Two other weekly or higher-difficulty activities

Holo-Battle Interlink runs weekly from Thursday at 04:00 to Monday at 03:59 after the update and requires Trailblazer I. It offers three routes per cycle, with distinct Alpha encounters and environmental mechanics. A four-person team can enter together, or with AI teammates. You can replay routes; each route tracks its highest Star Rank separately, and the combined stars determine milestone rewards. Star Rank and Support Rewards reset weekly. Team composition details are covered on the character-and-team page.

Egg Heist Chaos Mode opens September 24 at 04:00 UTC+8. It requires Tier IV, Elite Egg Seeker, and a Chaos Ticket. The official notice describes higher drop rates for Prismana Aniimo Eggs and Prismatic Collectibles, plus a chance to find ultra-rare Secret Collectibles. It does not provide a numeric drop rate in this update notice. The mode also has strict escape conditions, and the notice recommends going in with a team. For the exact egg probability table and the difference between egg paths, use the separate capture-and-eggs page.

What else changes in 1.1

A Pathfinder voiceover switch is added under Settings → Audio → Balance. Title Promotion Assessment quest chains are renamed “Promotion Series.” Home Management gains shortcuts to the Home Shop and Co-op Store, while Facility Management gains an E-Mode toggle in the Production Area.

The patch also improves controller navigation in Home Layouts, Home Index, Park Buffs, Home Season Lunar Crops, and Building Controls. Some furniture collision, height, and texture issues are fixed. Unobtained Sparkling Forms are temporarily hidden in Aniilog; the notice says previews will return in a future update. Appearance Design cost displays and outfit-conflict prompts are also adjusted.

Aniimo redeem codes: what is confirmed and what is not

The official update notice does not list active redeem codes, their rewards, their expiration dates, or claim limits. It therefore cannot confirm that a code copied from a current list will still work. A failed redemption can mean the entry is expired, limited, mistyped, or not valid for the selected region; the official notice does not specify which explanation applies to any particular code.

The current unverified code strings are aniimonow, anythinganiimo, anywhereaniimo, and aniimazingfroyo. The last is labeled North America only. The official update notice does not confirm these strings or their rewards, so a regional label should not be treated as a global rule. Enter a code exactly as shown and use the in-game response to check whether it is accepted on your server.

Redeem in game: open Clock or press Esc, choose the gear icon, then Gift Code Redemption. The menu wording varies, but the instructions point to that in-game screen; no web redemption route is confirmed here. Capitalization may matter: examples include mixed-case Aniimo2026 and uppercase ANIIMOGIFT, so preserve each code exactly.

Code status labels disagree: aniimoparty is marked expired in one entry and claim-limit reached in another. aniimowelcome is marked claim-limit reached in one updated entry, while it still appears in a broader code list. This does not establish a universal claim-limit rule or a shared status across regions. The official update notice gives no active-code count or expiry schedule.

Quick checks before claiming a code

Read the event time for the selected server, then check its unlock tier and activity condition: Student I or Student II, a theme submission, non-stacking Search Attempts, or the named Vein Abundance area. For a code, preserve capitalization and test it in the in-game redemption screen. Acceptance confirms only that it worked at that moment on that server; it does not establish global availability or an expiration date.

The official calendar gives event dates and progression gates. Current code validity and rewards remain unspecified in the official update notice.
