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

Today brings exciting news! Following the Project Mugen title reveal, Tencent confirms its Polaris Quest studio is bringing the expansive open-world RPG, Light of Motiram, to mobile devices.

Initially announced for Epic Games Store, Steam, and PlayStation 5 via Chinese social media (reported by Gematsu), the game's inclusion on mobile is particularly noteworthy given its impressive visuals and feature set.

Defining Light of Motiram is challenging; its gameplay blends multiple genres. Is it a Genshin Impact clone? Perhaps, with its open-world RPG elements. But the base-building mechanics evoke Rust, while the giant customizable mechanical creatures suggest a blend of Horizon Zero Dawn and even Palworld.

The game's eclectic mix of features, while potentially addressing concerns of plagiarism (understandably raised by Horizon fans), is both surprising and intriguing. However, concerns remain about the feasibility of delivering such a visually rich and mechanically complex game across multiple platforms, especially mobile.

A mobile beta is reportedly in development. Further details regarding the mobile release's optimization and launch date are awaited. In the meantime, explore our list of the top five new mobile games this week!
