Press release:
Gothenburg, Sweden – May 23rd, 2023.
The Gothenburg-based (Sweden) indie games publisher/developer Thunderful Publishing and indie games developer Wishfully Studios, today announced with great excitement and happiness that their cinematic puzzle adventure game “Planet of Lana”, is now available for PC (via Steam), Xbox (Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One), and the Windows 10 Store.

The highly anticipated adventure has launched to rave reviews, with EDGE praising the game for the way it “masterfully conducts the emotional highs and lows of a planetary odyssey” in its 9/10 review.

A new release trailer showcases the stunning art style, rousing soundtrack from D.I.C.E. and BAFTA-nominated composer Takeshi Furukawa, and unique companion based mechanics that made Planet of Lana one of 2023’s most anticipated titles and have now won the game critical acclaim.

The new trailer hints at a hidden past that may hold clues as to why gigantic alien spheres suddenly loom in the sky and stalking, spindle-legged robots stalk the lush natural landscapes of Lana’s planet.

It also highlights the diversity of wondrous environments you will explore in Planet of Lana, including our first look at new areas never revealed before, as well as giving us a taste of the awe and danger you will encounter as you move between relaxing platforming, tense stealth, contemplative puzzling and thrilling action.

Through dense jungles, sunlit meadows, arid deserts and the cold steel of alien architecture, the bond that connects Lana and Mui is key to survive and progress. Planet of Lana’s unique companion mechanic means Lana and Mui must work in tandem to solve the game’s compelling puzzles and avoid the hazards that lie between you and saving everything that matters from ruin.

“We are so excited about the fact that people are able to play Planet of Lana now on PC and Xbox and have already been humbled by the critical response to the game,” said Wishfully Studios director Adam Stjärnljus.

“Thank you to everyone who has shown such love and support for our game over the last few years and I hope you all enjoy it!”
