Revamped Version Of Myst Coming To iOS For 30th Anniversary
Myst is one of the most influential games of the 1990s, and now a new version of coming to mobile. 2023 marks the 30th anniversary of the original Myst’s release, when it quickly became one of the best-selling PC games ever.
Cyan describes Myst Mobile as the definitive mobile version of the puzzle classic, optimized for iOS devices, especially those with M1 chips. Like previous re-releases of Myst, it includes puzzle randomization, new sounds, and remastered art. Additionally, Myst Island, the game’s opening area, will be free for all users. If you want to access the rest of the game, it’s a $15 in-app purchase.
One of the earliest examples of a PC gaming phenomena, Myst was not only the best-selling PC game of the ’90s–surpassed only by The Sims in 2002–it also helped push sales of CD-ROM drives to the general public. This isn’t the first time that Myst has come to iOS devices–the original version of the game came out for iOS all the way back in 2012, and its sequel Riven came out in 2017.
However, this new version is an adaptation of the 2021 rerelease that was developed in Unreal Engine 4 for VR devices, Windows, Mac, and Xbox consoles. Cyan is currently working on a remake of the original Riven, though we have no idea when that will ultimately release.
