FAQ

Is The Magus Circle on Android or iOS?
Not yet. The official store page still lists Windows, macOS and Linux (with SteamOS/Steam Deck support) as the only way to play. The 1.2.0 update announcement (October 31, 2026) confirmed a mobile version is in development and recruiting playtesters through the studio's Discord — no release date or store version has been announced.
Can you play The Magus Circle on Steam Deck?
The store page carries SteamOS support, and the 1.1.0 update added keybinding settings tabs covering movement, abilities, button press mode, and controllers — the first patch to give pad players their own tuning surface.
Will The Magus Circle come to mobile?
A mobile version is now officially in the works: the October 31, 2026 announcement says the studio is "working hard" on it and needs testers for the playtest, with signups in the Discord and a considerable overhaul of the mobile screens already done. No launch date has been given; this page updates when that changes.
Can I play The Magus Circle on a phone with Steam Remote Play?
Steam's Remote Play can stream the game to a phone or tablet, but that is streaming from your own PC, not a mobile version — input latency and the drawn-sigil system make it a compromise, not a substitute.

Is There a Mobile Version?

Not yet — but one is officially coming. The Magus Circle is a PC game sold on Steam, and that remains the only way to play today:

Platform Status Source
Windows Listed on the official store page Steam store page
macOS Listed on the official store page Same
Linux / SteamOS (Steam Deck) Listed on the official store page Same
Android / iOS In development — playtest stage, not released 1.2.0 update announcement, October 31, 2026

The mobile version became official in the 1.2.0 update announcement (October 31, 2026 — see what changed in 1.2): the studio says it has been “working hard on our mobile version” and is in need of testers. Access to the playtest runs through their Discord. The one design detail shared: “we’ve had to overhaul quite a bit for the mobile screens” — which tracks with the concern this page has long raised about the drawn-sigil casting system, a core spell interface built around drawing shapes with a mouse cursor. The sigil drawing guide shows the interface in question, and the getting started guide covers the run loop it drives.

Until a store release lands, the searches that bring people here — “the magus circle android”, “the magus circle mobile” — still have no product to download.

What Changed That Helps Handheld Players

The 1.1.0 update (October 7) added keybinding settings tabs for movement, abilities, button press mode, and controllers — see what changed in 1.1. That is the first patch with explicit controller-facing settings, and combined with the store page’s SteamOS support it makes the Steam Deck the closest thing to a portable way to play today.

If You Want to Play Away From Your Desk

Two honest options, neither a mobile version:

  1. Steam Deck — natively supported per the store page, and the 1.1.0 controller settings exist precisely for this kind of play.
  2. Steam Remote Play to a phone or tablet — streams the game from your own PC. It works, but the drawn-sigil casting is latency-sensitive (you draw spell shapes mid-combat), so treat it as a stopgap.

Where Mobile News Lands

The studio communicates through Steam news — every hotfix from Day 1 through the current version landed there — and their Discord, which is now also where the mobile playtest signups live. When the mobile version gets a release date or a store listing, it appears there first, and this page will be updated the same day.
