Gameplay

Petit Planet has full character customization. It involves completing tasks to unlock more customization options. The game takes place in real time, and certain goals need multiple days to complete.

Story

Petit Planet involves the player, who works for Loomi Co., accompanied by three anthropomorphic animals, with the objective of developing a small planetoid and traversing the galaxy around it.

Hundreds of years ago, the Starsea began to grow in an odd way. That was when the first Luca Arbor was discovered. A sapling made from a part of the Luca Arbor allowed more planets to grow, creating life out of nowhere and making more Luca Arbor. A small group of people started spreading them around, trying to monopolize them.

Development

Petit Planet was first announced on September 25, 2025. The game held its first closed beta test, known as the "Coziness Test", on November 7, 2025. A second closed beta test, known as the "Stardrift Test", was held on April 21, 2026. On August 25, 2026, during the annual Gamescom event, a new trailer for Petit Planet revealed that the game will be releasing in winter that same year.

Petit Planet would also announce its final beta test, which was held on September 20. The game will be released for PC, iOS and Android, with additional platforms in development.
