Moonlighter from 11 bit studios was originally announced for mobile at GDC. That announcement revealed that the mobile release will not be a straight port and will be tailored for play on platform and feel like a native release. The action RPG with roguelite elements about being a shopkeeper already impressed me on Nintendo Switch and Xbox One. Earlier today, 11 bit studios confirmed that Moonlighter is arriving on mobile through an iOS release on November 19th. This month is already packed for releases on all platforms and Moonlighter joins the list of games I’m going to play soon. Watch the new Moonlighter mobile trailer below:
Moonlighter on iOS will include the base game and DLC with combat and control changes. It was previously confirmed that combat will use auto attacks and swiping for movement. The interface has also been tweaked to work better on smaller screens alongside some changes to balance the experience better. Moonlighter arrives on iOS as a premium release priced at $11.99 on November 19th. Pre-orders aren’t live yet but I will post about them when available. As of now, details for an Android release are not available. Make sure you check out the superb soundtrack to Moonlighter here. Have you played Moonlighter yet on any platform?
Been looking forward to this as I have the game on switch. It’s a great little game mixed with action roguelite and shopkeeping.
However, this thing about the ‘mobilized’ controls concerns me. I genuinely think some virtual thumbsticks and buttons could’ve done. There’s plenty of top down action games on iOS that work just fine like this.
But anyway. I’m curious and excited for the 19th release.
Holy!!!!!!
12 dollars!?!?
Great Game. Played it on the switch where it crashed sometimes. I hope it will be more stable here und it will have support for MFI controller.
Looking forward to this one! I hope it will have physical controller support.
You are right, a good month for releases, including for my platform Android.
Sadly is not so often.
About this game, any word if this will also be gamepad compatible? I didnt like the swipe part.
it's already out in the Canadian App Store. No idea when it dropped. Searched 11bit studios and it showing as the latest release. Downloading
