Little Rocket Lab Set for Nintendo Switch Release in December 2025: Cozy Production Sim Arrives from No More Robots

Renowned indie publisher No More Robots, in collaboration with development studio Teenage Astronauts, has officially announced its latest cozy simulation project, Little Rocket Lab.

Debuting with an announcement trailer on December 9, 2024, the game is now slated for a global release on the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop on December 10, 2025.

Little Rocket Lab is positioned as a charming and inventive take on the production line simulation genre, offering players a unique blend of building, resource management, and automation gameplay.

Set in a welcoming village backdrop, the game follows the journey of Morgan, an ambitious engineer determined to construct a rocket ship from the ground up—starting with small gadgets and progressing toward vast, automated machinery.

Each step in the engineering process is interwoven with puzzle-solving elements, character interactions, and an expansive world to explore. In describing the game’s design philosophy, the developers at Teenage Astronauts emphasized their intent to deliver a production line sim that is both approachable and full of depth.

"Players will be hands-on with everything from gathering resources to constructing and automating complex contraptions, all while interacting with a cast of quirky NPCs who either support or present new challenges," a spokesperson stated in their official announcement. Gameplay in Little Rocket Lab stands out for its variety across different zones of the village.

Players will mine valuable resources, venture through coasts, railyards, quarries, and subterranean environments, and harness the power of robotics and crafting systems for advanced automation.

Key mechanics involve managing electricity, handling water flow, operating cranes, and crafting tools—all contributing to the overall goal of completing Morgan’s ambitious rocket project. Set against a vibrant, hand-crafted environment, the game aims to offer both solo challenge and cozy community immersion: rekindling friendships, solving environmental puzzles, and enlisting the help of mechanical allies.

These features make Little Rocket Lab a standout entry in the Nintendo Switch simulation library, continuing No More Robots’ tradition of supporting creative indie experiences. The Nintendo eShop listing confirms that Little Rocket Lab will make its highly anticipated debut on December 10, 2025.

With its release, Nintendo Switch owners will have another engaging simulation game to enjoy, backed by a team known for bringing innovative concepts to life.
