You know HoYoverse – they’re the folks behind some of the world’s biggest free-to-play games, such as Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero. Yesterday, they announced their next project called Petit Planet, a cosmic interplanetary life sim with massive cozy vibes.
Announced for PC and mobile, with a console version in development, Petit Planet blends creation, discovery, and social gameplay elements that look quite charming in a new trailer. Players will nurture and develop their own planet, eventually connecting multiple planets together to form one big cozy galaxy. Planets develop organically as you make connections with NPC characters called Neighbors (who would have thought), each of which has their own stories and personalities. You’ll be able to cultivate these relationships through daily activities and friendship activities. A social hub known as the Galactic Bazaar is where you’ll be able to connect with other human players as well, which you can reach by hopping on your spaceship and heading out for a voyage amongst the stars.
As a life sim, you’ll be carrying out everyday chores such as planting, fishing, beachcombing, mining (just your everyday dose of mining), cooking, and crafting. And of course, it wouldn’t be a proper life sim without the ability to customize your homestead to your liking.
Check out the new trailer below as we await word a of release date. If you’re interested, you can sign-up now for the upcoming closed beta test over on the game’s website.
