Tencent's Polaris Quest announces its open-world RPG, Light of Motiram, for mobile alongside PC and console releases. This ambitious title blends several popular game genres into one package.
The game boasts a compelling feature set including base-building, survival mechanics, creature collection and customization, co-op, and even cross-play functionality. This breadth of features, coupled with the game's impressive visuals, raises questions about its feasibility on mobile devices.
Comparisons to other popular titles like Genshin Impact, Rust, and Horizon Zero Dawn are inevitable, given the game's diverse mechanics. The sheer number of features incorporated might be seen as a response to criticisms of potential similarities to existing games.
While a mobile beta is reportedly in development, the release date and specific mobile platform compatibility remain unclear. The challenge of optimizing such a visually rich and mechanically complex game for mobile platforms presents a significant hurdle.
