Tencent's 'Light of Motiram' Heads to Mobile

Tencent's Polaris Quest Unveils Ambitious Open-World RPG, Light of Motiram, for Mobile

Get ready for a massive announcement! Following the reveal of Project Mugen's official title, we now have news of another significant release: Light of Motiram, an open-world RPG from Tencent's Polaris Quest, is heading to mobile.

Initially announced via Chinese social media (via Gematsu), Light of Motiram will launch on Epic Games Store, Steam, PlayStation 5, and—most surprisingly—mobile devices. Given the game's impressive visuals and extensive feature set, this mobile release is undeniably ambitious.

But what exactly is Light of Motiram? It's a genre-bending experience. It's an open-world RPG, reminiscent of Genshin Impact, but also incorporates base-building (think Rust), customizable mechanical creatures (evoking Horizon Zero Dawn and perhaps a touch of Palworld), and cooperative and cross-platform play. It's a veritable smorgasbord of gaming elements!

This ambitious approach might address concerns about potential similarities to other titles. By incorporating a wide array of features, Light of Motiram aims to forge its own unique identity. However, the sheer scope of the game raises questions about its feasibility across multiple platforms, especially mobile.

A mobile beta is reportedly in development, so we'll have a clearer picture soon of how Tencent and Polaris Quest plan to bring this visually stunning and mechanically complex game to smartphones. Until then, check out our list of top new mobile games for something to play while you wait!
