Meet charming Neighbors and spirits and build your own cosmic paradise

What a great way to start the day, as Petit Planet looks like it’s almost ready to launch. Now, for those who are still aware of it, this is HoYoverse’s first-ever cosmic life sim that transforms entire planets into blank creative canvases where you can express yourself freely.

Here, you’ll embark on a heartwarming yet adventurous journey with charming Neighbors and kindred spirits from all sorts of planets. You’re given the chance to nurture your own little planet while connecting with others scattered across the stars, which honestly sounds really fun.

As your bond grows and your planet thrives, its vitality, known as Luca, will shape unique living landscapes teeming with life and energy. I really like how this concept blends creativity, friendship, and exploration into something so captivating. The addition of social and multiplayer elements makes it feel even more alive.

The good news is that Petit Planet is now gearing up for a CBT, set for iOS and PC from November 7. The recruitment for this test is now live, and in this test, you can attend the Galactic Bazaar, a social hub, where you can at over a cup of coffee, and sync your dance moves to cheerful melodies in cooperative rhythm mini-games.
