Studio head Denis Havel further explained the mobile version's strategy, aiming to engage the TikTok audience with compelling short-form content. The goal is to create a new, immersive entertainment experience using snippets of story, art, and audio.
The announcement included a debut trailer and screenshots showcasing new, 360-degree scenes designed specifically for mobile users, placing them directly within the world of Revachol. The experience is enhanced with full voiceover for a more immersive and character-rich experience.
Here’s the official description:
A reimagined version of the award-winning psychological RPG Disco Elysium, designed for today's mobile users. This story-rich adventure is optimized for short play sessions, allowing players to enjoy it anytime, anywhere.
Narrative Lead Chris Priestman described the mobile version as "what audiobooks wish they were," emphasizing its suitability for short bursts of gameplay.
Disco Elysium will launch on Android devices in Summer 2025.
It's important to note that while the studio name remains the same, significant personnel changes have occurred since the original Disco Elysium's release. Many key individuals have departed ZA/UM, with some now working on spiritual successor projects.
