Studio head Denis Havel further explained their strategy, aiming to capture the attention of the TikTok audience with engaging snippets of story, art, and audio, creating a new form of immersive entertainment.

The announcement included a debut trailer and screenshots showcasing new, 360-degree scenes designed specifically for mobile users, placing them directly within the world of Revachol. The mobile version also features brand new, fully voiced audio for an enhanced, character-rich experience.

Here's the official description:

A complete reimagining of the award-winning psychological RPG Disco Elysium, designed for today's mobile users. This story-rich adventure is optimized for short play sessions, allowing players to enjoy it anytime, anywhere.

Narrative Lead Chris Priestman describes the mobile version as "what audiobooks wish they were," perfect for playing in short bursts.

Disco Elysium will launch on Android devices in Summer 2025.

It's important to note that while the studio name remains the same, significant personnel changes have occurred since the original Disco Elysium's release. Many key individuals have departed ZA/UM, some of whom are now working on spiritual successor projects.
