Mages of Mystralia is an action-adventure video game by Borealys Games. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in 2017, and for the Nintendo Switch in 2019.[1][2][3]

Plot

The game is set in the land of Mystralia and follows Zia, a mage who discovers her magical powers at the beginning of the game. After being exiled from her village due to unintentionally causing turmoil through her powers, she meets a character self-described as the Mentor, who convinces her to travel to a mage sanctuary to improve her skills as a mage. Zia is eventually tasked with preventing a war between an army of trolls and the anti-mage Kingdom of Mystralia, whilst learning more of her destiny and uncovering a more sinister plot.

Development

Mages of Mystralia was developed and published by Canadian studio Borealys Games.[4]

In August 2024, Borealys Games announced that a follow-up game, titled Echoes of Mystralia, was under development.[5]

Reception

Reviews for the game have been "mixed or average" on Metacritic.[6][7][8][9] Destructoid gave the game a 7 out of 10 calling the game "solid" and stating that it's a "decent adventure with varied combat, cool boss battles, and semi-interesting locales".[10] Game Informer gave the game an 8 out of 10 praising its gameplay, describing it as "engrossing", and calling the in-game magic system as "brilliant".[11]
