Planet Of Lana is a puzzle adventure with a hand-painted art style, companion-based gameplay, and an epic sci-fi saga that stretches across centuries and galaxies.

A young girl and her loyal friend embark on a rescue mission through a colorful world full of cold machines and unfamiliar creatures.

Set on an alien world, Planet Of Lana tells the story of Lana and her loyal animal companion Mui as they embark on a rescue mission to save her sister. This touching tale is experienced through the lens of a cinematic side scrolling gameplay format, as players explore a colourful world full of stunning environments, strange creatures and dangerous machines. From a gameplay perspective, Planet Of Lana is an adventure filled with daring platforming, engaging puzzles, tense stealth sequences and a companion mechanic that connects Lana and Mui, allowing for unique gameplay and story moments using their abilities in tandem.

This off-world odyssey is tied together with a completely unique visual style that combines hand-drawn artwork, complex parallax layering and subtle use of 3D graphics to give the look of an interactive painting. On high-end PCs and Xbox Series X, Planet of Lana will run at a native resolution of 4K (2160p) at 60 frames per second, allowing its incredible artwork to come to life.


This new trailer offers the most diverse and in-depth look at the beguiling adventure to date.

The new gameplay trailer shows off more of the lush green forests and awe-inspiring deserts revealed in previous trailers, as well as giving us an intriguing peek at humid swaps and darkly atmospheric caves. Even more exciting are the hints the trailer offers as to what you can expect to be doing when you jump into this stunning artistic creation later this year.

We see how Lana and her cat companion Mui must work together to deal with the many hazards and puzzles in their way, Mui’s ability to influence the natural environment proving particularly useful on this off-earth odyssey. From hazardous platforming, to spindly-legged stalking robots, from cave-dwelling creatures, to towering monolithic walkers, Lana and Mui have both wondrous sights and a diversity of dangers ahead of them.

Key Features:

  • Unique companion-based gameplay
  • Solve puzzles with diverse challenges and quirky twists
  • Carefully navigate dangerous situations using stealth and wit

This off-world odyssey is tied together with a completely unique visual style that combines hand-drawn artwork, complex parallax layering and subtle use of 3D graphics to give the look of an interactive painting. On high-end PCs and Xbox Series X, Planet of Lana will run at a native resolution of 4K (2160p) at 60 frames per second, allowing its incredible artwork to come to life.
