What is mtion?

mtion is your home away from home, where you and your community can grow and flourish. Our desktop app (PC only) lets you easily create your own immersive and interactive virtual worlds and experiences to share with each other. Everyone has a community to build, and with mtion, you can now give them a home.

mtion is currently in development, however you can access the open beta early-access via Steam.

Why use mtion?

There are lots of reasons why people are using mtion:

• Tell your stories in new ways: Create interactive experiences that showcase who you are and what you want to express. mtion empowers you to craft immersive, interactive stories and effortlessly share them with the world.

What's the Pre-Release? What's the difference between Early-Access on Steam and the Pre-Release?

At mtion, we believe the best way to build an app is by collaborating with a passionate community. That’s why we’ve made mtion available even before it's fully complete.

The mtion Early-Access on Steam is a pre-alpha version with features designed specifically for livestream creators.

The mtion Pre-Release is an exclusive version for those who joined the Pre-Release Waitlist. Access is granted on a cohort basis, offering users the chance to explore features in active development that will help us reach our next major milestone: the official Alpha stage.

A key difference between the two is that Pre-Release lets anyone—not just livestream creators—create and share interactive experiences. These experiences can be visual novels, role-playing games, simulations, platformers, and more. Pre-Release moves us closer to mtion’s vision of enabling everyone to easily create, play, and remix personalized interactive experiences.

Is mtion free?

Yes! mtion will always be free. In the future, we may add some premium features that would require a subscription to use, but we'll be very transparent when that happens and no existing feature will ever be locked behind a paywall.
