Summer 2026 is the release window for Moss: The Forgotten Relic, which Polyarc said will launch digitally worldwide on the Nintendo eShop for both Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch.
Quill returns as the lead in a storybook adventure that mixes exploration, environmental puzzles and combat, while players also act as the Reader, directly interacting with the world around her.
Polyarc framed the game as an emotional, atmospheric journey through a fallen kingdom reclaimed by nature, with hidden secrets, handcrafted diorama-like puzzles and arcane threats.
Accessibility and presentation are part of the pitch: combat can be skipped optionally, and the game features an orchestral soundtrack by Jason Graves.
