Global gaming giant HoYoverse has officially announced the closed beta launch for its newest title, Petit Planet — the studio’s first-ever cosmic life simulation game. Dubbed the Coziness Test, the beta begins November 7, 2025, on PC and iOS, giving players an early chance to explore a galaxy brimming with creativity, connection, and charm.
Weaving Dreams Among the Stars
Guided by the theme “Weave Your Dreams Beneath the Stars,” Petit Planet invites players to build and nurture their very own planet. Each world is a personal canvas for creativity — where life flourishes, connections bloom, and wonder never ends. Players can sign up for the Coziness Test by completing the survey available now on the official website.
In Petit Planet, you begin your adventure by caring for your home planet, cultivating its growth, and forming bonds with fuzzy companions known as Neighbors. As these bonds deepen, the planet’s vitality — called Luca — transforms the landscape into a living, breathing ecosystem filled with light and energy.
A Cozy, Creative Universe Awaits
At its core, Petit Planet blends life sim mechanics with cosmic exploration, letting players experience an idyllic lifestyle among the stars. You can:
- Cultivate crops and enjoy spontaneous harvests.
- Fish in crystal-clear cosmic waters.
- Scour beaches for rare treasures.
- Experiment with unique recipes made from interstellar ingredients.
Each activity helps strengthen relationships with your Neighbors — each bringing their own stories, dreams, and personalities. And when it’s time for adventure, you can embark on Starsea Voyages to mysterious islets with your trusted companions by your side.
Building a Connected Galaxy
Unlike HoYoverse’s past story-driven RPGs, Petit Planet introduces social and multiplayer features designed to make the universe feel truly alive. During the closed beta, players can gather at the Galactic Bazaar, a vibrant social hub where they can chat, meet new friends, and even join cooperative rhythm mini-games that turn the cosmos into a dance floor.
HoYoverse aims to make Petit Planet a community-driven experience that encourages creativity and connection. The developer has confirmed ongoing multi-platform development and expanded social gameplay features, ensuring the game continues to evolve beyond the Coziness Test.
