Polyarc Closes Doors, Ending the Moss VR Era After a 12-Year Run

VR studio Polyarc Games has shut down after nearly twelve years, confirming the end of active development in a LinkedIn post and detailing a March layoff that cut about two-thirds of the staff. The Moss franchise—including Moss VR (PSVR 2018), Moss 2 VR (formerly Moss: Book II), and The Forgotten Relic—along with Glassbreakers: Champions of Moss, earned more than 160 awards and nominations, but sales evidently weren’t enough to keep the studio afloat.

Moss on Console Lacks the VR Touch That Enchanted Me

Valentine recalls Moss’s emotional VR moment at E3 2017—being the Reader and guiding Quill with tactile, in-world interactions that forged a deep bond—before noting the newer Moss: The Forgotten Relic on PC and consoles preserves the story and puzzles but loses the VR intimacy; healing Quill is now a button press rather than a personal gesture. While expanding Moss to more platforms is welcome for accessibility, the console version cannot fully recapture the original magic, leaving the experience more as a traditional game than a unique VR relationship.
