Thunderful and Wishfully Studios have officially debuted a new gameplay trailer for Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf, the much-anticipated sequel to their critically acclaimed cinematic puzzle adventure, Planet of Lana.
Celebrated for its evocative art direction and rich storytelling, the original Planet of Lana garnered industry accolades, and the sequel aims to further expand the universe with enhanced gameplay mechanics and a deeper narrative.
Set to be released digitally via the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo Switch in 2026, Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf continues the journey of Lana and her feline companion, Mui, as they venture into the mysterious underground world of Novo. The newly released trailer offers a closer look at the advanced companion-based puzzles that players will encounter.
Thunderful and Wishfully have highlighted how players will experience a strengthened partnership between Lana and Mui, featuring refined guidance controls for improved teamwork and exploration.
The gameplay reveals elaborate physics-based challenges, including unique creature-possessing mechanics and the ability to control hybrid robots, propelling the puzzle-solving experience beyond the original game's foundation. In a press release, the developers outlined several expanded features for the upcoming sequel.
One of the standout elements is the "evolved companion gameplay"—players will be able to guide Mui with greater precision, unlocking collaborative strategies to tackle puzzles and explore the lush environments.
The expanded stealth and action elements require players to make calculated decisions, navigate dangerous encounters, and utilize new moves such as wall jumping and run-sliding, all of which were demonstrated in the trailer’s dynamic set pieces. Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf also promises a lengthier and more profound narrative, delving into Lana’s journey as she faces an ancient threat from the depths of Novo.
The story will challenge Lana and Mui’s unbreakable bond, set against new atmospheric backdrops that include underwater environments and shadowy realms.
Touching themes of friendship, resilience, and self-discovery remain at the core of the saga. Musically, the game features the return of acclaimed composer Takeshi Furukawa, whose original score for Planet of Lana received widespread praise.
Furukawa’s compositions are set to once again elevate the emotional tone and cinematic depth of the gameplay experience. Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf will be available as a digital download on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch in 2026.
As anticipation builds, Thunderful and Wishfully are setting the stage for another standout entry in the puzzle platformer genre, inviting players to reconnect with Lana and Mui on an unforgettable adventure.
