Absolum is heading to Android and iOS later this year; pre-order/registration now open

Mike Holmes

If you’re on iOS or Android and you’re after a new side-scrolling beat ’em up to enjoy, then I have some good news for you: Absolum is hitting mobile platforms in late 2026, and pre-orders are now open.

I reviewed Absolum when it launched on PC and console late last year, and I don’t mind telling you: I had a good time with it. While the static stages mean it’s not your typical roguelite, it borrows just enough elements to keep each run through Talamh feeling fresh and exciting.

Now the roguelite brawler by Dotemu, Guard Crush Games, and Supamonks is preparing to roll out on mobile devices, with Android and iOS versions of the game due to land on November 5th, 2026. Playdigious, which specialises in adapting games for mobile, are handling the port.

Finally, you can pre-order Absolum if you’re into that sort of thing; it’s $8.99 / £8.99 on iOS. That said, there’s no price listed yet on Google Play, so you’d just be pre-registering there.

Still with me? Of course you are! If you want to keep reading about great hand-picked roguelikes, this website is absolutely chock-full of them. Head over to the Guides Page for a concentrated hit of roguish games, organised via sub-genre and platform.

What’s more, there are always going to be new lists for emerging trends as well as fresh titles to highlight. This is because my backlog is embarrassingly long, and so I’m always trying to balance the new games that arrive in my inbox with playing the stuff I already have.
