Progress Transfer Unlocked | Release Date News

Good News, Islanders! 🌴

After originally announcing that Luma Island: Pirates would require starting from scratch, we're happy to say that (thanks to your feedback and some creative problem-solving) we've found a solution that lets you bring your progress with you!

While Pirates will still begin with a new save to support all the big updates (like the new farm layout, Pirate Cove zone, new profession, and new difficulty options), you'll now have 2 ways to play Pirates:

Option 1: Choose to bring your progress with you and:
  • Most of your inventory items will come with you
  • Everything placed on your farm (animals, crops, buildings, etc.) will be safely packed into a special chest on your new farm
  • Tool upgrades, blueprints, craft benches, buildings etc. will be refunded as resources and money in the same chest. It's up to you to decide how you want to spend it all.


🔍 A few things won’t make the journey: Quest progress, story-related items, and progress outside your farm won’t carry over, but everything important to your farm life will be right there with you.

We know your farm took time and creativity, so if you decide to rebuild your farm, you'll have enough resources and money to bring your vision to life again!

🌱Option 2: Start Fresh for a brand-new adventure

Want a totally clean slate? Choose a completely fresh start for the full Luma Island: Pirates experience:
  • Discover everything as if for the first time, with no inventory or upgrades carried over
  • Build your dream farm from the ground up
  • Perfect for players who love the thrill of a new beginning

We'll be revealing the official release date for our first Major Free Update: Luma Island: Pirates during Wholesome Direct 2025 on June 7th! Make sure to tune in for the big announcement and a sneak peek at what's coming.

Huge thanks for your patience and support, it truly helped us get here.

🏴‍☠️ Luma Island: Pirates | Update Details 🏴‍☠️

Ahoy, Islanders!

The development of Luma Island: Pirates is in full sail! We've listened carefully to feedback from the community and have implemented many of your wonderful ideas and requests.💡

Though we're still a ways off from launch, we wanted to share some important details about how you'll experience all the exciting new content.

[h3]Upcoming Features:[/h3]
🏝️ A new pirate-themed zone with minigames, temples, and traps
⚓ A brand-new profession
🏠 New Farm layout and decorating options to build your dream farm
👗 New outfits and accessories. Change outfits whenever you want
🎮 Three difficulty modes, from Cozy to Hero
🗺️ A full-screen map with markers
🔥 New unique Luma powers
✨ And much more - ALL FOR FREE! 🎁




🏴‍☠️ A first glimpse at the Pirate Cove—The Chicken Race is a work in progress! 🐔🏁

[h3]Important Note on Save Files:[/h3]
To access the new content in Luma Island: Pirates, you’ll need to start a new game with a fresh save. This is a technical limitation due to several factors, including a changed farm start map and difficulty options.

If you’d rather keep your current progress, you can continue playing Luma Island without the new Pirates content—your saves will remain available and intact. You can set sail on the Pirate adventure whenever you're ready.

You can switch between Luma Island: Pirates and Luma Island Vanilla as you like.

We can't wait to share more about the exciting new content we're creating for you. Your support has made Luma Island an incredible success, and we're thrilled to have you along as we bring you this new pirate adventure!

Thank you for being such a wonderful part of our community! 🌊🏴‍☠️
