"Moss: The Forgotten Relic combines Moss, Moss: The Twilight Garden, and Moss: Book 2 into a singular experience for Steam and PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo consoles. Like in the VR games, players will guide a mouse named Quill through a storybook adventure, interacting with the world to help out along the way. This version reworks the camera and presentation to work on flatscreen TVs or monitors, when it previously did not."
"The Moss games are truly some of the best VR experiences out there, so any console player who picks Moss: The Forgotten Relic will likely be in for a great time. That said, it's hard to ignore that this is happening during a rocky year for the VR gaming industry. Meta largely pulled out of first-party development by shutting down its studios in January, and many other VR studios have shut down or laid off developers."
"There's also a larger trend of VR-built games coming to flatscreen platforms this year. Famed VR developer Survios recently ported Alien: Rogue Incursion to consoles, only to subsequently lay off several developers. The Myst and Riven VR remakes are also coming to more consoles soon. Even the successful VR developers now feel the need to branch out into more traditional console games."
"Moss: The Forgotten Relic will be released for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S sometime this summer."
Moss: The Forgotten Relic combines Moss, Moss: The Twilight Garden, and Moss: Book 2 into one experience for Steam and major consoles. Players guide Quill, a mouse, through a storybook adventure by interacting with the world. The flatscreen version reworks the camera and presentation so the experience works on TVs and monitors, unlike earlier VR-only formats. The release is expected to reach Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S during summer. The move reflects broader industry pressure, including studio closures and layoffs across VR, and a trend of VR-built games being ported to traditional console platforms.
