If you’ve spent any time with a PSVR headset, you’ve likely encountered Moss and Moss: Book II. These charming puzzle-platformers are widely regarded as some of the best titles on PSVR, and indeed across all of virtual reality gaming. But until now, owning a VR headset was the only way to experience them.

That changes this summer. As revealed by IGN, developer Polyarc has announced Moss: The Forgotten Relic, a new bundle that merges both games into a single non-VR package launching on Switch 2 and the original Switch 1.

Set within the pages of a living storybook, the adventure follows Quill, a brave little mouse. In the first game, she sets out to rescue her uncle; in the sequel, she must save the entire kingdom of Moss. This new compilation brings both journeys to consoles with enhanced visuals, brand-new cutscenes, all previously released DLC, and a notable new accessibility option that lets players skip combat entirely.
