Tencent's Polaris Quest announces its open-world RPG, Light of Motiram, for mobile, alongside PC and console releases. This ambitious title boasts a unique blend of genres.
The game, revealed via Chinese social media, will launch on Epic Games Store, Steam, PlayStation 5, and seemingly mobile devices. Its impressive visuals and feature set raise questions about its feasibility on mobile platforms.
Light of Motiram defies easy genre classification. Described as an open-world RPG, it incorporates base-building (similar to Rust), creature collection and customization (Pokémon meets Horizon Zero Dawn), and co-op/crossplay functionality. The sheer breadth of features is striking, though potentially challenging to implement on mobile.
While the developers aim to avoid accusations of copying other games by incorporating a vast array of elements, concerns remain about the technical challenges of delivering such a visually rich and complex experience across multiple platforms, especially mobile.
A mobile beta is reportedly in development. Further details regarding the mobile release are expected later. In the meantime, explore our list of the top five new mobile games this week!
