Planet of Lana Coming to PlayStation and Switch on April 16
Developed by Wishfully Studios and heavily inspired by the memorable works of Studio Ghibli, the 2023 puzzle-platformer Planet of Lana quickly became a fan-favorite, with critics and fans alike praising its music and storytelling. The side-scroller will soon be made more accessible than ever, coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch on April 16.
“A planet that used to be a place of undisturbed balance between human, nature, and animal has now become something else entirely,” reads the game’s overview on Steam.
“The disharmony that had been in the making for hundreds of years has finally arrived in the form of a faceless army. But this is not a story about war. This is a story about a vibrant, beautiful planet—and the journey to keep it that way.”
Planet of Lana centers on a girl named Lana as she explores a planet overtaken by hostile alien machines to find her abducted sister. Accompanied by a cat-like creature named Mui, the two must work together to solve puzzles and traverse the game’s scenic world. Players are asked to use their wits and stealth to navigate the title’s more dangerous situations and their reflexes during certain action sequences to make it to the very end.
At the 27th Annual D.I.C.E Awards, Planet of Lana was nominated for Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composition. Inspiration for the title came from many popular sources, including The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee.
Planet of Lana is already available on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. The PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch versions will launch on April 16.
