ZA/UM, the creative minds behind the critically acclaimed *Disco Elysium*, have exciting news for fans and newcomers alike: they're developing a mobile version specifically for Android devices. This adaptation will take a unique approach by transforming the game into a visual novel format, moving away from the original's isometric gameplay. Players can look forward to an immersive experience filled with illustrated scenes, nonlinear narratives, and fully voiced dialogue.
The developers have expressed their intention to "introduce Disco Elysium to a broader audience while providing loyal fans with an exciting mobile-friendly option." This initiative is particularly aimed at engaging TikTok users, as emphasized by Tõnis Haavel, the head of ZA/UM:
"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 further details, such as the official release date, are yet to be announced, the anticipation for this mobile adaptation is already building. Stay tuned for more updates from ZA/UM on this innovative project.
