Gamers who thrive on strategy, tension, and unforgiving decision-making may want to mark their calendars. MEMOLITH: Forsaken by Light, a turn-based tactical RPG from WEBZEN and Black Anchor, is officially launching worldwide on April 27, 2026, for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Originally introduced in Early Access back in October 2023, the game has undergone a substantial transformation. According to the developers, this is not just a routine update—it’s a full-scale rebuild shaped heavily by community feedback. In short: hindi lang ito simpleng upgrade—this is a reimagined experience.

A Game Rebuilt by Its Players
One of the most notable aspects of MEMOLITH’s development is how much it evolved through player input. The upcoming 1.0 release introduces a more structured narrative progression, refined gameplay systems, and a deeper tactical experience overall.
Expect more intense encounters, including newly added mid-boss fights that escalate the challenge within each stage. The game also features redesigned mechanics such as weapon crafting and a memory-based ability system, allowing players to experiment with different builds and strategies.
For those who participated during Early Access, the full release will require a fresh start—giving everyone a chance to experience the revamped systems from the ground up.

Tactical Survival in a Broken World
Set in the ruined city of Remore, MEMOLITH: Forsaken by Light places players in a bleak, apocalyptic scenario. The once-glorious city revolved around a mysterious glowing mineral known as the Memolith—believed to be a divine blessing. But when its light faded and eventually vanished, chaos followed.
A catastrophic event unleashed a dark fog called the “Dark Shroud,” turning citizens into monstrous entities and leaving only a handful of survivors behind. Players take control of a small team, navigating this hostile environment where every move—literally—can mean life or death.
Combat revolves around positioning, timing, and environmental awareness. With only three characters in a squad facing overwhelming enemy numbers, strategy is not optional—it is survival.

Depth, Customization, and Relentless Pressure
The game features over 80 handcrafted stages across different districts, each designed to challenge both tactical thinking and resource management. Players can recruit unique Survivors, each with distinct roles, and customize them using over 130 Memolith Shards that unlock new abilities.
Adding to the pressure is the constant threat of the Dark Shroud, forcing players to balance exploration with survival objectives. It’s the kind of gameplay loop that keeps you thinking several steps ahead—parang chess, pero mas brutal at mas unforgiving.
Built for a Global Audience
With its official launch, MEMOLITH expands its accessibility by supporting eight languages, making it more inclusive for a global player base. This move signals WEBZEN’s intent to position the game competitively in the international strategy RPG space.
Should You Be Watching This Game?
If you’re into tactical RPGs that demand careful planning rather than button-mashing, MEMOLITH: Forsaken by Light is shaping up to be a strong contender. Its emphasis on consequence-driven gameplay, combined with a dark narrative and player-influenced development, gives it a distinct identity in a crowded genre.
At its core, this is a game that doesn’t hold your hand. Isang maling galaw lang, tapos na. And for many strategy fans, that’s exactly the appeal.
The countdown to April 27 has officially begun.
