Planet of Lana 2 is, simply put, an immediate delight. Picking up where its predecessor left off, playing around 45 minutes of the puzzle-platformer at Gamescom 2025 gave me a delectable taster of what's to come, with protagonist Lana and her cat-like friend Mui investigating a new mystery on the planet Novo.
In my demo, I'm given a taster of several different sections, taking me across a snowy biome, a tropical beach, a man-made mechanical space, and a lush forest. Much like the first game, everything looks gorgeous, with vibrant colors and detailed scenery that makes the world of this 2D adventure feel deep and expansive, and oozing with atmosphere. If I wasn't on a time-limit, I'd have loved slowly meandering through these areas, soaking it all up.
