Moss is leaving VR behind for its next release, but Quill is not starting from scratch. Polyarc has revealed Moss: The Forgotten Relic, a new version of the mouse hero's adventure that brings Moss and Moss: Book II together as one non-VR game for PC and consoles in summer 2026.

The official PlayStation channel published the reveal trailer for PS5, while Polyarc's official Moss site now lists The Forgotten Relic as coming to PC and consoles this summer. A Steam page is also live, and the PlayStation Store listing names Polyarc, Inc. as publisher.

The important change is the format. Moss and Moss: Book II were closely associated with VR, where players looked into storybook-like dioramas and helped Quill by manipulating the world around her. The Forgotten Relic keeps that relationship at the center of the game, but Polyarc is reworking the two-part story for standard screens instead of requiring a headset.

That makes this more than a simple bundle. The Steam listing describes The Forgotten Relic as a "definitive singular adventure" that unites the original game and Book II, with enhanced visuals and performance, new handcrafted cutscenes and a smart follow camera. It also includes the Twilight Garden DLC and adds a Skip Combat accessibility option.

For Moss, that conversion is a bigger design question than it would be for a conventional action-adventure. The VR originals used scale, perspective and direct environmental interaction as part of their identity. Bringing those games to PC and consoles means Polyarc has to preserve the feeling of guiding Quill through miniature spaces while making the camera and puzzle interaction work from a normal display.

The studio is still positioning The Forgotten Relic as a storybook adventure rather than a straight action game. Official store copy describes a fallen kingdom, environmental puzzles, hidden secrets and arcane threats, with Quill relying on the player for guidance and protection. The Steam page also notes an orchestral soundtrack by Jason Graves and says the Moss games have received more than 160 awards and nominations.

The reveal should be especially welcome for players who heard about Moss as one of VR's strongest adventure series but never bought into a headset. It also gives Polyarc a way to keep Quill visible on current platforms while VR remains a smaller slice of the gaming audience than PlayStation, Switch, Xbox and PC.

Polyarc has not announced a specific release date or price. The confirmed window is summer 2026, with official pages currently pointing to PC and consoles and the PlayStation Store confirming a PS5 listing. More platform-specific store pages should make the final release details clearer as launch gets closer.
