21st August, 2024, Cologne - Indie Studio, Raccoon Logic (previously Typhoon Studios), have announced their newest title, Revenge of the Savage Planet will crash land into a solar system near you in early-ish 2025 for PC and consoles. Revealed during both Opening Night Live and the Xbox Gamescom showcase, Revenge of the Savage Planet brings back everything you loved about the first game in the series, but bigger and better in every way, with more planets, gear, critters, laughs, satire, and this time, in third person.
Revenge of the Savage Planet will see you unceremoniously ousted from your mission to colonize space after the powers that be deemed space exploration far too costly and challenging, they ultimately made you redundant during your 80 years of cryosleep. So, stranded on an alien planet with nothing but your wits and whatever you can scavenge from the vibrant landscape, you’ll head out on an adventure to explore strange new lands, collecting and crafting new gear in an effort to make your way home.

Playable both solo and co-op, you can jump into Revenge of the Savage Planet with a friend, partner, mortal enemy (we won’t judge), either nestled in the same room with split screen co-op, or even across the mystery that is the internets on the platform of your choosing with crossplay.
Alex Hutchinson, Creative Director, Raccoon Logic Said:
“We’re beyond excited to welcome budding explorers back to the Savage Planet universe. A lot has happened since we launched the original title - both in-game and life, with the whole studio being shuttered during a global pandemic. On the back of this, Raccoon Logic was born, and with it Revenge of the Savage Planet, which may or may not incorporate an element of the journey we all went through. The XBOX showcase today is the tip of the asteroid, and we can’t wait to show everyone the world we’ve created next year”
