Light of Motiram, Tencent\'s upcoming Horizon-inspired open-world RPG, looks like it\'s coming to mobile

Tencent's Polaris Quest unveils its ambitious open-world RPG, Light of Motiram, slated for mobile release alongside PC and console platforms. Initial announcements on Chinese social media, reported by Gematsu, suggest a multi-platform launch encompassing Epic Games Store, Steam, PlayStation 5, and mobile devices.

This expansive RPG blends a variety of genres, defying easy categorization. Its features include open-world exploration reminiscent of Genshin Impact, base-building mechanics akin to Rust, and the ability to collect and customize giant mechanical creatures, drawing comparisons to Horizon Zero Dawn and even Palworld. The sheer breadth of features raises questions about the feasibility of a smooth mobile experience, given the game's impressive visual fidelity.

While the sheer number of features might invite comparisons to other titles, the developers seem to be embracing a "kitchen sink" approach, incorporating a diverse range of gameplay elements. This ambitious undertaking leaves some skepticism regarding a seamless cross-platform release, particularly on mobile. However, a mobile beta is reportedly in development.
