The anime-inspired pixel RPG is ready to steal hearts and save the Moon
[California] April 17, 2025 — Jet suits on! CosmicNobab Games and indie.io are thrilled to announce that LunarLux, the sci-fi action-RPG inspired by the GBA era of heartfelt pixel adventures, is now available on Nintendo Switch.
Set in the year 30XX, LunarLux follows Bella, a fearless Lunar Warrior, and her robot sidekick Tetra as they fight to stop the return of a deadly comet. Humanity has rebuilt on Luna after the collapse of Earth, but with time running out and conspiracies unfolding, it’s up to Bella to uncover ancient secrets, confront the ruthless Murk Slayer, and save her world.
From soaring across the moon in a jet suit to petting every space dog (yes, it does something), LunarLux invites players to explore a handcrafted pixel world packed with interactive surprises, heartfelt characters, and easter eggs galore. Combat mixes turn-based strategy with action timing, encouraging players to stack Active and Support skills into powerful Lux Combos that reward skill and experimentation.As Tetra, players can dive into malfunctioning networks to solve nostalgic 8-bit minigames, uncover hidden lore, and unlock new paths through the lunar mystery.
After its PC launch, solo developer CosmicNobab continued building on the world of LunarLux with major updates — including the Legend Update, which introduced new difficulty modes, expanded missions, and the fan-favorite Beach Episode. This post-game story chapter invites players to kick back in Summer’s Cove, take on new quests, and dive into a retro-style mini-game — a playful nod to classic anime detours between high-stakes battles.
Backed by a passionate Kickstarter community and praised by players on Steam, LunarLux holds a “Very Positive” rating, with acclaim for its pixel-perfect visuals, deep combat system, and heartfelt narrative. It’s been described as a nostalgic love letter to GBA-era RPGs, now brought to life with modern flair.
Now on Nintendo Switch, LunarLux invites a new generation of Lunar Warriors to embark on Bella’s cosmic journey — or experience it all over again, this time from the comfort of a handheld. LunarLux is also available on Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store, and can be downloaded exclusively through Crunchyroll Game Vault by Mega Fan and Ultimate subscribers. Whether you're exploring Luna for the first time or revisiting its pixel-perfect moonscape, there's never been a better time to dive in.
