The game is set against a futuristic dystopia, wherein the planet Earth has become uninhabitable due to factors such as pollution, wars, and global warming – and humanity is on the lookout for alien planets to colonize and potentially, inhabit. Lost Planet was a bit different from other action games by Capcom, one of those being that the game was exclusive to Microsoft’s Xbox 360, as opposed to most of its other titles which found a home on Sony’s PlayStation 3. This begs the question – what the hell actually happened to Lost Planet? Over the course of less than a handful of entries and a handheld spin-off, the franchise faded into obscurity.
Some of these IPs would go on to become really big with subsequent entries, while others would fizzle out after lukewarm critical or commercial failure.įalling into the latter category is a little franchise by the name of Lost Planet, which sought to combine third-person shooter action and Mecha brawls against the backdrop of a sci-fi dystopia. In addition to these well-known classics, the Japanese development studios have also actively dabbled in the middle market space with experimental IPs built on a relatively conservative budget. Japan is home to many games development teams in the industry, and there is no shortage of iconic franchises from there that includes but not limited to Resident Evil and Street Fighter among others.
