Polyarc has announced that Moss: The Forgotten Relic, the latest installment in their critically acclaimed adventure franchise, will launch on PC and consoles this summer. The hand-crafted fantasy adventure follows the journey of Quill, a young mouse with dreams of grandeur, as she explores a magical world filled with ancient mysteries.
The game features what Polyarc calls “dual” gameplay, in which players both control Quill and interact directly with the environment as a guardian, known as Reader. This unique mechanic blends exploration, environmental puzzles, and combat into what the developers describe as an emotional and atmospheric experience set in the pages of a living storybook.
Moss: The Forgotten Relic will offer players the chance to explore a fallen kingdom reclaimed by nature, solve hand-crafted diorama-style puzzles, and uncover hidden secrets throughout their adventure. The game includes accessibility options such as an optional “skip combat” feature and will be accompanied by an orchestral soundtrack composed by Jason Graves.
The title represents a milestone for the franchise, uniting Quill’s story into one seamless experience enhanced specifically for PC and console platforms. Polyarc has redesigned the cutscenes and camera systems while modernizing the visuals with platform-specific improvements.
Moss: The Forgotten Relic will launch this summer on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 1|2. Players can now add the game to their Steam wishlist, with additional details to be revealed during IGN Live June 6-8. More information is available at polyarcgames.com.
