The Aniimo release time is almost here, unveiling the world of Idyll and its many creatures for you to catch. This game certainly seems to be trying to tap into that Palworld vein of an open world filled with recruitable monsters, though admittedly with fewer guns and survival crafting elements. Aniimo is also free-to-play, though apparently not a gacha game, so expect some slightly different monetisation.
