Typhoon Studios and 505 Games’ acclaimed sci-fi action-adventure title Journey to the Savage Planet seems to have a sequel in the works. The game enjoyed critical acclaim but was unable to make a similar commercial impact, though it seems its development team, which reformed as Raccoon Logic shortly after its closure in 2021, has a follow-up in the works.
Caught by MP1st, a trademark registration for a game called Revenge of the Savage Planet was filed with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office earlier this year. That is in addition to a casting call made on Actors Access for a game under the codename Project Lodestar, which, according to the casting call, is “a follow-up to Journey to the Savage Planet“.
The role itself was for “a sci-fi formally dressed spokesperson”, while the casting call also mentioned roles for other characters with names such as Slappi Xtreme Smartbot, Smile Syndicate, and Chisler Financial, all of which sounds very Savage Planet. Interestingly the most recent casting call for the project came in March, which suggests that work on it has continued at a steady pace behind the scenes.
How long it’ll be before the sequel gets officially announced is anyone’s guess, but fans of the original definitely seem to have that to look forward to.
