Right now, the Myst remake has only been confirmed for PC and Oculus Quest, but given Cyan’s announcement doesn’t emphasize platforms, it suggests that there’s a chance those platforms could grow. One option, of course, may be for it to stick closely to the point-and-click style of the 1993 version with modern polish, while another could be for Cyan to take inspiration from games that followed Myst, like Cyan's 2016 first-person puzzler Obduction. For now, fans are left to speculate about how much the remake will reimagine the original’s gameplay. Other than that, the announcement doesn’t go into further detail regarding specific changes being made, with the reveal trailer focusing more on the vibe of Myst. The remake will also come with optional VR support. Cyan, as well as the newly launched store pages on Steam, GOG, and Oculus, reveal that the new version will boast updated visuals, audio, and interactions, as well as new features like optional puzzle randomization.

The way Myst immersed players in its world full of secrets to discover (as well as some tricky puzzles) can still be seen in games coming out nearly 30 years later. The 1993 first-person puzzle-adventure left a big impact on the history of video gaming, not just in terms of critical and financial success but for the way it advanced the idea of what games could be. Now another iconic game can be added to that list, because it has just been announced that Myst is getting the remake treatment. With the popularity of games like Final Fantasy 7 Remake, more developers than ever have incentive to go all in on reimagining beloved classics.
