10 Overlooked Upcoming Games You MUST Consider
5. Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf
Sci-fi puzzle-platformer Planet of Lana was broadly acclaimed by most critics upon release in 2023, though it also came and went rather quickly and didn't seem to move the needle enough for a sequel to be produced.
Yet during Xbox's Summer Games Fest showcase, Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf was given a surprise reveal totally out of nowhere.
The sequel will reunite original protagonist Lana and her companion Mui as they set off on a new adventure which developer Wishfully has promised will be longer and deeper than its predecessor.
The previous puzzle-solving, stealth, and action gameplay has been refined, while this follow-up will also offer a more diverse array of locales to explore.
But here's one thing Planet of Lana II won't be changing - original composer Takeshi Furukawa is back to deliver what will surely be another soul-stirring musical score.
Considering the brilliance of the original game, it's easy to believe that this will be a stellar levelling-up of everything people loved about it.
Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf releases sometime in 2026.
