ZA/UM, the creators of the award-winning Disco Elysium, have exciting news for mobile gamers: a dedicated Android version is in the works! This mobile adaptation will offer a fresh take on the original, transforming the experience into a captivating visual novel. Instead of the isometric gameplay of the PC version, expect beautifully illustrated scenes, a branching narrative, and fully voiced dialogue, promising a rich and immersive experience.
The team at ZA/UM explains this shift is designed to broaden Disco Elysium’s reach while providing fans with a convenient mobile option. A key part of this strategy, as highlighted by ZA/UM head Tõnis Haavel, is engaging the TikTok community:
"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 precise release date remains under wraps, ZA/UM promises to share more details soon. Stay tuned for updates!
