Watch the gamescom trailer [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Es1Mre3FuKk) for a closer look at the dynamic day-night cycle of Minietopia and a wealth of new character customisation options featured in the latest Beta! In Animula Nook, players build homesteads, collect natural elements like bottled sunlight, and befriend tiny creatures across everyday objects such as computer desks. As tiny explorers navigating oversized environments, players turn everyday clutter into miniature homes, cafés, and gardens. Since opening playtest registration in February 2026, Animula Nook has amassed over 10 million pre-registrations. The new Beta will be playable to the public in **Hall 08.1, Space A-051 / B-050**. This build introduces a major upgrade to the game’s visuals, materials, rendering approach, and character animations. Players can experience a more refined and cozy version of the desk, windowsill, and Wupa Woods areas, meet new Minies (residents), and discover new furniture and outfits. Across each hands-on session, visitors can take in the miniature atmosphere, customise outfits, snap photos, and explore this tiny world for themselves. Those who take part in the on-site activity will also have the chance to enter a raffle to win exclusive Animula Nook merchandise. Beyond the hands-on demo, visitors are invited to step into the charming world of Minietopia through a fully themed booth experience. An immersive recreation of the game’s iconic miniature world sets the scene, complete with a four-metre-tall inflatable Wupa, instant photo opportunities, themed music, and interactive activities that bring the cozy atmosphere of Animula Nook to life. Fans who take part in the on- site activities will also have the chance to enter a raffle to win exclusive, limited- edition Animula Nook merchandise. Those unable to attend gamescom can still join the adventure through Animula Nook’s interactive virtual booth, available [here](https://animulanook.com/shrinkatgamescom/) on both PC and mobile. Recreating the physical space online, it brings together the latest game updates, themed mini-games, and interactive experiences.
