Tencent's Polaris Quest announces its open-world RPG, Light of Motiram, for mobile, alongside PC and console releases. The game boasts an impressive feature set, raising questions about its feasibility on mobile devices.
Light of Motiram blends several popular game genres. Described as an open-world RPG, it incorporates base-building mechanics reminiscent of Rust, creature collection and customization similar to Pokémon, and even giant mechanical creatures echoing Horizon Zero Dawn. The sheer breadth of features, including co-op and crossplay functionality, is ambitious for a mobile title.
The game's extensive feature list and high visual fidelity have drawn comparisons to other established titles, prompting concerns about originality. However, the developers seem to embrace this eclectic approach, packing the game with a diverse range of elements.
While a mobile beta is reportedly planned, the ultimate success of porting such a visually rich and mechanically complex game to mobile remains to be seen. Further details regarding the mobile release are expected later. In the meantime, explore our list of top new mobile games for some immediate entertainment!
