Can You Delete a Character in Aniimo? Reset Options
Aniimo has no documented delete-character flow. Here is what is confirmed about character slots, server locking, and how to start over safely.
Players searching for a way to delete a character in Aniimo are usually trying to do one of two things: start completely over, or free up a slot after a bad server choice. Both are reasonable goals, and neither has a documented one-click solution.
This page covers what is confirmed, what players report, and the routes that actually work without risking your account.
The Short Answer
Aniimo does not publish a character deletion process, and there is no documented delete button. Players asking about it on Steam and the subreddit report that they could not find one in the interface, and reports are mixed on whether an account can hold more than one character at all.
That makes "delete my character" the wrong framing. The question to ask instead is what you want the reset for, because the answers differ.
| Goal | Realistic route |
|---|---|
| Start over on the same account | Contact in-game Customer Support |
| Change server | Not possible through a transfer; check support first |
| Play a different region | Use a separate Aniimo Pass account for that server |
| Fix a bad appearance | Use the customization menu, not a reset |
What Is Confirmed
Several official rules shape the decision, and they are worth knowing before you try anything drastic.
| Rule | Status |
|---|---|
| Three regional servers with independent data | Official |
| Progress does not transfer between servers | Official |
| Progress is shared across platforms within one server | Official |
| Account linking uses an Aniimo Pass email | Official |
| Server on PS5 is assigned from PSN region | Official |
| A character deletion option exists | Not documented |
The server rules are the important part. Because server data does not transfer, a character created on the wrong server cannot be moved to the right one. If that is your situation, a new account on the correct server is the only route the published rules leave open.
Starting Over Without a Delete Button
If your goal is a fresh start on the same server, in-game Customer Support is the correct channel. It is reachable from within the game, and it is the only route that can act on your account rather than around it.
Before contacting support, decide three things:
- Which server you actually want. This is the decision you cannot undo, so it is worth confirming with your group first.
- Whether your rewards matter. Beta-test rewards and pre-order pack contents are tied to the email address and console account that earned them, which affects whether starting clean costs you anything.
- Whether a new Aniimo Pass is simpler. If you are switching servers anyway, a separate account avoids the whole question.
Do not attempt a workaround by unlinking and relinking accounts unless you are following the official instructions, because the console linking prompt only appears once per PSN or Microsoft account. Getting that step wrong is not reversible.
The Linking Steps That Are Documented
The one account operation the developer does document is changing which email an account uses, and it comes with explicit warnings. The official instructions describe linking an unrelated email, unlinking the third-party account, logging out, and then logging in with the test email instead.
The FAQ is direct about the consequence: if you have already created a character and cannot accept losing it, contact Customer Support rather than following that path yourself.
Appearance Problems Do Not Need a Reset
A common reason players look for a delete option is that they are unhappy with how their character looks. That has a solution inside the game.
Aniimo's customization menu lets you adjust face shape, makeup, hair, and outfit after creation, and Face Codes let you import a completely different look from another player. Glimmer, which arrives free through launch codes, converts into customization items.
If you dislike your character's appearance, that is a ten-minute fix rather than a reason to restart the account.
What a Reset Would Cost You
Before pursuing a fresh start, it is worth knowing what carries weight in Aniimo:
| Progress | Reset risk |
|---|---|
| Story and unlocked systems such as the mailbox | Would be repeated |
| Caught creatures and Prismana forms | Would be lost |
| Free Prismana choice | Already spent, and not re-granted |
| Battle Pass redemption cards | Never expire, so they carry forward |
| Pre-order accessories | Tied to the purchasing account |
The free Prismana selection is the sharpest of those. Every account gets one choice from fourteen options as a launch reward, and a reset does not hand back a second one.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you delete a character in Aniimo? No deletion option is documented, and players report the same when looking for one in the interface. In-game Customer Support is the correct route for account changes.
How do I start over in Aniimo? Contact in-game Customer Support. There is no documented self-service reset.
Can I change my server after creating a character? Server data does not transfer, and PS5 assigns your server from your PSN account's registered region. Confirm with support before assuming a change is possible.
Can I have characters on two servers? The cleanest route the published rules leave open is a separate Aniimo Pass account for the other server, since progress does not transfer between servers.
Do I lose my Battle Pass if I start over? Redemption items never expire, but account-bound progress such as your free Prismana choice and caught creatures would not come back with a reset.
Where should I ask about my specific account? In-game Customer Support, using the in-game contact options. The official launch FAQ documents the account linking rules referenced here.
