Polyarc has announced that Moss: The Forgotten Relic will launch on July 16, 2026 across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch 1 and 2 — bringing the award-winning Moss adventure to non-VR platforms for the first time. The announcement was made today at IGN Live alongside a release date trailer, and a Steam demo goes live June 8, ahead of Steam Next Fest.

The Forgotten Relic is not simply a port — it’s a reimagined adaptation of the Moss adventure purpose-built for non-VR hardware, packaging Moss, Moss: Book II, and the Twilight Garden DLC into a single definitive experience with new cutscenes, new camera systems, and platform-specific visual enhancements. For the millions of players who followed Quill’s journey in VR and the even larger audience who never could, this is the version of the series that makes it fully accessible.

Quill’s Complete Journey — Everything in One Package

What’s Included in Moss: The Forgotten Relic Moss (full game) · Moss: Book II (full game) · Twilight Garden DLC · New cutscenes and camera systems · Platform-specific visual enhancements · Reimagined for non-VR hardware · Steam Deck Verified

The Forgotten Relic follows Quill — a young mouse thrust into a perilous journey through a fallen kingdom to save her world from arcane forces — through the complete arc of both Moss games. The defining mechanic of the series is its dual-perspective design: the player takes the role of the Reader, a guardian spirit who guides and protects Quill, while Quill herself is the hero navigating the physical world. It’s a relationship that made the VR versions so emotionally affecting, and the Forgotten Relic adapts that dynamic thoughtfully for traditional screen play.

Key Features

Moss: The Forgotten Relic — What to Expect

Guide a Hero Who Sees You Quill looks to the player — the Reader — for guidance, protection, and trust at every step. The emotional bond between player and hero is the series’ signature experience, redesigned for non-VR platforms.
Explore a Fallen Kingdom Venture through a mythic land of ruins slowly reclaimed by nature — handcrafted, diorama-like realms filled with environmental puzzles, hidden paths, and ancient mechanisms.
Face Arcane Threats Confront formidable Arcane creatures forged from steel and magic. A “skip combat” accessibility setting is included for players who want to experience the story without combat.
A New Perspective New cutscenes, redesigned camera systems, modernised visuals, and platform-specific enhancements purpose-built for non-VR play — not a straight port.
Enchanting Orchestral Soundtrack Music by Jason Graves — composer behind the Dead Space and The Order: 1886 soundtracks — across the full adventure.
