Created Gamescom 2026 page with confirmed dates, hall and booth numbers, the Connect the Vibe theme, hands-on PC demo details, and the announced on-site appearances
Petit Planet is scheduled to make its international exhibition debut at gamescom 2026 in Cologne, Germany, where the public will be able to play the game for the first time outside a closed beta. The publisher announced the plan on July 17, 2026, as part of its full show lineup.
gamescom 2026 runs from August 26 to 30, 2026 at Koelnmesse in Cologne. Petit Planet occupies a dedicated exhibition zone inside the publisher's booth in Hall 6.1, Booth B030, a roughly 660 square metre space shared with the publisher's other titles. A separate business-area presence is set up at Booth B051 in Hall 4.2.
The Petit Planet area runs under the theme "Connect the Vibe", and its set design is built around the Starsea. Visitors get a hands-on PC demo rather than a video presentation.
The demo casts players as a Planet Tender, the same role the game uses in its own framing. Announced demo activities cover farming, building, exploring the Starsea, and socialising with the fuzzy Neighbors who live alongside the player.
