Moss: The Forgotten Relic takes Quill’s grand adventure onto non-VR platforms this summer

The Moss VR game series (Moss: Book I & II) by development studio Polyarc was one of the most charming adventures available when released for a variety of headsets and hardware over the years. Now, the studio is taking Quill and her epic action-puzzle solving adventures to the flat world for pretty much all consoles and the PC sometime this summer.

Moss: The Forgotten Relic, which looks to combine the VR games into a non-VR adventure for the PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch 1|2, and from what we can see it still looks fabulous and as charming as ever, so players who did not dip their toe into the virtual reality journey can now appreciate the series.

Have a look at the announcement trailer and some screens, and stay tuned for more details and a solid release date once revealed.

Polyarc, a multi-award-winning independent game studio, today revealed a teaser trailer announcing Moss: The Forgotten Relic, a hand-crafted fantasy adventure that brings the critically acclaimed Moss franchise to PC and consoles. The game launches this summer on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 1|2.

Moss: The Forgotten Relic is an emotional and atmospheric adventure set in the pages of a living storybook, brimming with myth and ancient magic. Moss tells the tale of Quill, a young mouse with dreams of greatness beyond the confines of her home. Blending exploration, environmental puzzles, combat, and a heartfelt connection between player and hero, this fabled story invites players into a timeless fantasy adventure designed to stay with them long after the final page is turned.

The announcement trailer introduces Moss’ magical storybook world and offers a glimpse of its distinctive “Twofold” gameplay, where players not only control a tiny but determined hero on her heartfelt adventure but also directly interact with the world itself as her watchful guardian, the Reader.

Moss: The Forgotten Relic Key Features:

  • Explore a fallen kingdom slowly reclaimed by nature
  • Guide Quill through mysterious places and towering dangers
  • Solve handcrafted, diorama-like environmental puzzles
  • Discover hidden secrets and surprises off the beaten path
  • Face arcane threats with optional “skip combat” accessibility
  • Uncover the epic and heartfelt tale of a hero who needs you
  • Experience an enchanting orchestral soundtrack by Jason Graves

With 160+ awards and nominations, Moss is one of the most celebrated modern indie adventure franchises. Moss: The Forgotten Relic unites Quill’s saga into one seamless, beautifully enhanced experience for its debut on PC and consoles. The game features handcrafted cinematography through newly designed cutscenes and camera systems, alongside modernized visuals and platform-specific enhancements.

“Our team has a deeply personal connection with the world and characters of Moss,” said Danny Bulla, Co-Founder and Design Director at Polyarc. “With The Forgotten Relic, we’re excited to invite players into Quill’s journey to share the wonder, mystery, and heart at the center of Moss.”

Moss: The Forgotten Relic will release for PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 1|2. Players can wishlist the game on Steam today. Additional details will be revealed during IGN Live, taking place June 6–8.
