Planet Centauri News

After incredible and difficult years of development, we are beyond thrilled to finally release the 1.0 of Planet Centauri to the world. This moment represents far more than just a game launch — it's a testament to perseverance, madness, and the unwavering support of our amazing community.

First and foremost, we want to extend our deepest and most heartfelt thanks to every single person who has believed in this project. To our dedicated fans who have followed our journey, provided feedback, shared their excitement, and remained patient through years of development—you are the true heroes of Planet Centauri.

A special acknowledgment goes to the incredible freelancers who poured their talent, time, and passion into bringing this dream to life. Each artist, animator, sound designer who contributed has left an indelible mark on Planet Centauri. Your commitment and skill have transformed our initial vision into a living, breathing world.

This release is not just our achievement, it's a collective triumph. We couldn't have reached this milestone without the continuous support, constructive criticism, and genuine enthusiasm from our community.

To everyone who has been part of this extraordinary Story: thank you. Planet Centauri is as much your creation as it is ours.

About the patch note: We've made a significant change to how players first experience Planet Centauri. We've completely overhauled the tutorial system, replacing the old, rigid quest structure with a more organic and immersive introduction to the game world. Gone are the traditional, repetitive tutorial quests that felt disconnected from the game's core experience. Instead, we've crafted an intuitive, seamless onboarding that allows players to naturally discover the game's mechanics while being fully engaged with the world and story.



ps : About the OST, we sadly not get the validation yet but it will come in the very few next days!
