Buying Another Eden Begins may qualify you for promotional serial codes used in another game, Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space. The codes do not unlock characters inside Begins. The publisher's serial-code terms set different claim paths, eligible platforms, and deadlines, so check which version you purchased before trying to redeem a code.
What the codes provide
The official campaign lists three rewards:
| Code | Reward in Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space | Code deadline (UTC) |
|---|---|---|
| Story skip | Skip Part 1 when starting as a new player | September 16, 2027, 14:59 |
| Item Code Part 1 | One “Encounter Ramiu” ticket plus Aldo and Feinne Begins outfits | September 16, 2027, 14:59 |
| Item Code Part 2 | Three “5-Star Guaranteed 10 Allies Bundle (Begins)” tickets | March 15, 2027, 14:59 |
These deadlines were published for the promotion beginning September 16, 2026 at 15:00 UTC. Tickets can have additional use-by limits: the official terms state that the Ramiu encounter ends September 16, 2027 and the bundle encounter ends March 15, 2027, and each ticket expires one month after receipt. Claiming a code close to a deadline does not extend that encounter period.
The story-skip code is for a new account of the separate game and is entered when it first offers “Skip Part 1.” For the item codes, open that game's Menu → Other → Serial Code and enter the code there. Each distinct code is single-use.
Steam purchase: how to claim
The publisher says Steam buyers must own the full release and have played it for at least two hours. Demo playtime does not count. Then use the Claim Serial Code button on the official Begins site. Follow that site's Steam-account verification flow and copy the displayed code after eligibility is confirmed. The publisher says purchase date does not affect eligibility within the claim period, but the code and encounter deadlines still apply.
Codes obtained through the official site after a Steam purchase can be used on any platform supported by Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space. They cannot be used inside Begins.
Nintendo purchase: check the region
The publisher states that codes for the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 download versions are available for the Japanese version only. A Western digital purchase should not be assumed eligible. Nintendo purchase codes are redeemable in the Android or iOS versions of Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space, not its PC version. For a physical copy, check the exact box or retailer promotion instead of applying the digital-version rule to all regions.
If a code fails
Confirm that you are entering it in the correct game and menu, that the code has not been used, and that its deadline has not passed. For Steam, verify that the full game—not the demo—has two recorded hours and that you used the account that owns it. For Nintendo, check the product's eligible region and the mobile app platform. The publisher's support contact is the authoritative route for an account-specific error.
