Pre-registration is open through HoYoPlay and Apple’s App Store. This page separates the confirmed signup routes from dates that are still provisional.

Choose your platform
HoYoPlay on PC
Update and open HoYoPlay, choose All Games, select Honkai: Nexus Anima, then choose Pre-Register Now and sign in.
Auto-download is optional. Turn it on only if you want HoYoPlay to download the client when it becomes available.
App Store on iPhone or iPad
Open the official listing and choose Pre-Order or Get, depending on the wording shown in your region.
Store availability can vary by country or region.
Release-date boundary: The App Store currently shows an expected April 1, 2027 date in some regions. Treat that as a store estimate, not a confirmed worldwide launch date. HoYoverse gives a Spring 2027 target and says the exact date will be announced later.
