Eggs and hatching
Put eggs in a Hatchinator, either at the Outpost in The Argent Strait or ones you build in your Homeland, and wait out the real-time timer. When the egg is ready you Twine it and pick an Aniipod for the Aniimo: only an Aniipod Ultra (at least Elite Potential) or a Sparkling Cube (Perfect and Sparkling) changes the result. Eggs come from open-world nests, the daily activity tasks, Elite Training, events, the Companion Handbook and Operation: Egg Heist.
How to hatch an egg
- Go to a Hatchinator: the Outpost in The Argent Strait has one, and you can build more in your Homeland.
- Place the egg. The Outpost Hatchinator has three slots, and the middle one only takes special, higher-quality eggs.
- Wait. Hatching runs in real time, and the timer shows beside the egg.
- When it is ready, Twine the egg and read its guarantee.
- Pick an Aniipod and confirm.

Where eggs come from
- Nests in the open world, often high up or reached by Twining.
- Finishing every Daily Activity task: one egg a day.
- Elite Training, including the DPS Custom Egg Box with Perfect Shining eggs.
- Events, such as Who's That Aniimo? and its Wonder Egg.
- The Companion Handbook, free and paid tracks. Each version's paid track has an exclusive Prismana egg.
- RV dispatches, which the developers say can now produce eggs with the Prismana trait.
- Operation: Egg Heist.
How long hatching takes
Rarer eggs take longer: blue hatches fastest, then purple, then golden. A purple egg takes about 2 to 2.5 hours and a golden one up to 5 hours.
Operation: Egg Heist
A PvPvE mode for one to three players that unlocks after the level 50 promotion. You find a nest inside an activated Sanctum, Twine the egg to roll it out, collect Eggshell Coins, and escape through the Destination Mechanism. Fainting loses what you carry. Eggs from Egg Heist are the only source of the Shadow Sparkling Style: 1% when hatched with a Sparkling Cube.
The egg timers
The egg timersType the time your Hatchinator shows and see when the egg is really ready, weekend speed included.Any hatch has a small chance to come out Sparkling, but only a Sparkling Egg or a Sparkling Cube guarantees it.
