ZA/UM, the creators of the award-winning Disco Elysium, have exciting news for mobile gamers: an Android version is in the works! This isn't just a port, though. To make the experience perfect for mobile, Disco Elysium will be reimagined as a visual novel. Expect stunning illustrations, a branching narrative, and fully voiced dialogue—a departure from the original game's isometric perspective.
The team's vision is to bring Disco Elysium to a wider audience while offering fans a convenient way to play on the go. ZA/UM's Tõnis Haavel explains their strategy:
"Our goal is to draw in TikTok users through short videos packed with compelling stories, stunning illustrations, and captivating audio recordings. This initiative will redefine entertainment by offering a fresh and deeply engaging experience. Narrative-focused games like Disco Elysium deserve a place on mobile platforms. By honoring the essence of the original work, we strive to reintroduce this masterpiece to both new and returning players. Our hope is for everyone to rediscover their love for Disco Elysium—now accessible on their smartphones."
While a specific release date remains under wraps, ZA/UM promises to share more details soon.
