Hot on the heels of its announcement of new game Project C4, ZA/UM has unveiled an official mobile version of the acclaimed game, Disco Elysium. This version, exclusive to Android devices, aims to introduce the game to new audiences while providing a convenient on-the-go experience for existing fans. ZA/UM will initially offer the first two chapters of Disco Elysium for mobile at no cost, with a one-time payment option to unlock the complete, ad-free game.
ZA/UM emphasized their commitment to enabling players to make well-informed purchase decisions. The studio, now consisting of both creators and custodians of the Disco Elysium intellectual property, takes their dual roles seriously and strives to reflect this dedication in the mobile adaptation.

Studio head Denis Havel has articulated a vision to engage the TikTok audience with Disco Elysium on mobile. "We intend to captivate the TikTok user with quick hits of compelling story, art, and audio, ultimately creating an all new, deeply engaging form of entertainment," Havel stated.
Alongside the announcement, ZA/UM released a debut trailer and screenshots for the mobile version. The game features new, immersive 360-degree scenes tailored specifically for mobile users, placing them directly into the heart of Revachol. Additionally, the mobile version boasts brand new audio with full voiceover to enrich the character-driven experience.
This is a total re-imagination of the award-winning, gripping psychological RPG Disco Elysium and designed to completely cater to the habits of today's mobile users. This story-rich adventure has been optimized for short play sessions, allowing players to dive in anytime, anyplace on their mobile devices.
Narrative Lead Chris Priestman described the mobile version as "what audiobooks wish they were," emphasizing its design for short, impactful gaming sessions.
Disco Elysium is slated for release on mobile via Google Android in the summer of 2025.
It's important to note that while the studio retains the same name, the team behind the original Disco Elysium has seen significant changes. Numerous former ZA/UM members have departed since the game's initial release, with some now working on spiritual successors to the beloved title.
