The new game combines both <em>Moss <\/em>and <em>Moss: Book 2<\/em> into one unified package that has been reworked for flat screens. It will launch this summer on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<p>The Moss series follows a white mouse named Quill on a fantasy adventure contained within a book. The first game was a hit in 2018, racking up award nominations at The Game Awards, The Golden Joystick Awards, and D.I.C.E. A sequel called <em>Moss: Book 2<\/em> launched in 2022 and received similar acclaim, winning the award for Best VR\/AR Game at that year&#8217;s Game Awards. <em>Moss: The Forgotten Relic<\/em> will mark the first time players will be able to experience the series without using a VR headset.<\/p>\n<p>The collection unifies the first two games into one, and also includes <em>Moss<\/em>&#8216; Twilight Garden DLC. A few things have been tweaked to optimize the game for consoles. The visuals and performance have been enhanced, and there&#8217;s a reworked Smart Follow Camera. <em>The Forgotten Relic <\/em>will also feature new cutscenes and an accessibility feature that allows players to skip combat.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement comes just over a month after developer Polyarc underwent a &#8220;significant&#8221; staff reduction. According to former employee Alex Holodak, the studio cut two-thirds of its staff after one of its in-development projects lost its funding in 2025. Polyarc is one of several VR studios to be hit with layoffs, or shuttered entirely, in the last year.<\/p>\n<p><em>Moss: The Forgotten Relic<\/em> is also the latest example of a dedicated VR developer making a pivot to console games. Vertigo Games recently revealed that it is adapting its VR-exclusive remake of <em>The 7th Guest <\/em>into a proper PC and console game, slated to launch on June 4. It&#8217;s a potential sign that the winds are changing in the VR industry as more developers in the space embrace traditional consoles.<\/p>\n<p><em>Moss: The Forgotten Relic<\/em> will launch this summer on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-empire-city-vr-game-review\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                        <img width=\"440\" height=\"248\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Donatello of the Ninja Turtles wears a VR headset\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/g7u3cmqa8aaxkm.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/g7u3cmqa8aaxkm.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>Related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \">\n<p>\t\t\tThe new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game is the best TMNT game in years<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">As Michelangelo once said, \u201cGod, I love being a Turtle!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/moss-the-forgotten-relic-announced\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The VR-exclusive Moss series is making its jump to consoles this summer with Moss: The Forgotten Relic.
