MiHoYo, the powerhouse behind HoYoVerse, has been busy innovating, and their latest project, formerly known as Astaweave Haven, has undergone a significant transformation. Before we even got a glimpse of the gameplay, the project has been rebranded to Petit Planet. This change has sparked excitement and curiosity among fans, especially those who enjoy gacha games and RPGs.
Astaweave Haven, now Petit Planet, is shrouded in mystery with limited official information released by MiHoYo. However, rumors suggest that this upcoming title might diverge from HoYoVerse's traditional open-world gacha adventures. Instead, Petit Planet is speculated to be a life-simulation or management-based game, drawing comparisons to popular titles like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley. The new name, Petit Planet, not only sounds more endearing but also hints at a cozy, management-focused experience rather than another gacha RPG.
When Is the Game Launching?
While Petit Planet is still in development, no specific launch details have been disclosed yet. The game, initially approved in China for both PC and mobile platforms in July, saw a name change to Petit Planet on October 31st. HoYoVerse is currently awaiting approval for the new name in the U.S. and U.K. Given MiHoYo's track record of rapid game releases, such as launching Zenless Zone Zero shortly after Honkai: Star Rail, there's hope that once the name gets the green light, we'll soon see what Petit Planet has in store for us.
