'MO:Astray' (ALL) Gets Nintendo Switch Date - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 24, 2020 @ 12:01 p.m. PDT

MO:Astray is a pixel art, side-scrolling, action/platformer where you lead MO through mind-bending puzzles using special abilities.

Awakened in an abandoned laboratory teeming with otherworldly creatures and deadly traps, MO sets out on a journey of immense importance. Driven by voices in its head, the mysterious lifeform vaults across a hostile environment overrun by parasitic alien plants and a homicidal supercomputer, gradually becoming more aware of its mission and what caused the disaster. 

Scan MO’s surroundings and devise a plan to discover a way forward. Harness an arsenal of special abilities to solve puzzles and navigate a gauntlet of challenges. Climb and adhere to walls, spring from one surface to the next, and sail through the air to surmount any obstacle. When forced to confront enemies, MO can execute dash attacks and decapitate the infected. It can even latch onto foes and access their memories to learn more about this enigmatic facility.

Delve into a richly detailed world, piecing together the shocking truth through these flashbacks. Overcome unthinkable dangers as a curious entity whose amorphous nature opens the door to all manner of clever and creative solutions to even the most mind-bending of problems. 


“MO’s adventure is a bizarre, alien experience overflowing with mysteries to solve and trials to overcome,” said Ching-Yi Hou, producer, Archpray. “Our team is overjoyed by the positive reception of the game and we’re looking forward to welcoming new explorers into our strange world when MO:Astray makes the jump onto Nintendo Switch on Sept. 10!” 

Key Features:

  • Utilize sticking, ramming, parasitic takeover and memory recall to navigate the otherworldly, sci-fi environment.
  • A meticulous pixel art style accompanied by super-smooth animation, effects and immersive soundtrack.
  • Use your mind: Wait, observe, plan out your path and use special abilities wisely. Find a way out.
  • MO: Not just any jelly-like organism! Use MO to the fullest to survive in this sinister environment.
