Journey to the Savage Planet is coming to next-gen consoles having left Stadia

505 Games and developer Raccoon Logic, formally Typhoon Studios, have announced that with the shutdown of Stadia, Journey to the Savage Planet will now come to Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, joining the release on the other consoles.

The game first released on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, before getting a Switch release. The developer was then bought out by Google and forced to make Stadia games, only to be shutdown a year later when the pandemic started.

As you might already know, Kindred Aerospace is responsible for determining the viability of human life on planet ARY-26. Data suggests the planet’s atmosphere may have hallucinogenic properties, but as you know, we have a strong anti-drug policy. Learn about the planet’s undiscovered flora and fauna and document the bizarre life forms our researchers have scientifically classified as “icky.” Conduct research with the standard tools of the trade: laser pistols, bombs, acid, and other explosives or requisition ARY-26’s resources to create tools using 3D printing technology. Just remember that your benefits don’t include health insurance. You die, it’s your fault, Valued Employee.

We reviewed the original release back in 2020 and the expansion when it came a few months later. Those who pick up the game on Xbox Series X|S or PlayStation 5 will get the Employee of the Month Edition, which comes with juicy DLC, new ads, bonus chats with Martin Tweed and an enhanced photo mode. The game also takes full advantage of the new hardware, making it perfect to see how weird the consoles can get.

As for when its coming, February 14, about 3 years after it first released.
