Disco Elysium: Critically Acclaimed CRPG Now Coming to Mobile with Android Port

It's a landmark moment for fans of CRPGs, as a newly-released trailer has given us our first glimpse of what might be the most eagerly awaited narrative-driven game to hit mobile devices in recent times. Disco Elysium is set to make its debut on Android, and it's not just a simple port of the original game. It's coming with a fresh twist, featuring brand new art and mechanics tailored for smartphones.

For those unfamiliar, Disco Elysium casts you as the amnesiac detective Harry Du Bois, tasked with solving a murder in the city of Revachol's Martinaise district. Your mission involves interrogating suspects and navigating the city to untangle a complex web of conspiracies and conflicting stories.

Whether it's the unpredictable behavior of the protagonist that you can choose to resist or embrace, or the deep philosophical exchanges between Harry and the characters he encounters, there's a compelling reason why Disco Elysium has been hailed as a groundbreaking title.

Under normal circumstances, I'd be ecstatically shouting this news from the rooftops. With all-new art and gameplay mechanics, including immersive 360-degree scenes you can explore using your phone's camera, Disco Elysium is arriving on mobile in what might be its most impressive form yet.

However, the excitement is tempered by the well-publicized rift between Zaum and several key members of the original Disco Elysium design team, as well as subsequent layoffs and legal disputes. It's nothing short of a miracle that Disco Elysium has managed to reach Android intact amidst all this turmoil.

Whether this mobile release represents a new lease on life for Zaum or marks their final chapter, it's clear that this eagerly anticipated port will capture the attention of fans who have been yearning for a CRPG with such exceptional writing and content.

Disco Elysium is now available for pre-registration on Android.
