Neighbor Professions & How They Help Your Planet
In Petit Planet, your planet won’t build automatically; you have to set the bars high. Unlike other life simulation games where players just wander around, here each and every character plays a vital role in progressing and developing your world by assisting with daily tasks.
From doing farming and managing local stores to crafting items and exploring other galaxies, each character has a dedicated role which helps you to manage your planet.
Neighbours like Yunguo, who is a farmer, will take care of your crops and plants and gather materials while you explore your planet or any other galaxy. And a few neighbours will give you daily gifts, unlock, and provide resources. Take Rebella, for instance she’s a resident neighbour who will help you explore planets, even if she is a bit of a rule-breaker.
What to Expect When Petit Planet Launches
As we all know, developers are still working on this life-sim; however, we have the list of neighbours that are confirmed who are going to help us manage our planet. While these 10 characters are cute and helpful for in-game tasks, everyone expects more furry creatures as we get closer to the launch date. Currently, final beta-test sign-ups are open for limited players (though everyone can register), and after the testing program, we’ll get to know the confirmed Petit Planet release date.
Plus, there’s still a lot of game content left to reveal, such as new neighbours, seasonal events, challenges, and gameplay mechanics.
