1001 Threads of Mizan is a co-op action-adventure in development at MBC Game Studio, with a pre-alpha build shown at gamescom 2026 and no release date set. It is planned for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.
1001 Threads of Mizan was announced during the gamescom 2026 Opening Night Live broadcast on August 26, 2026, Japan time, as the debut title from MBC Game Studio. The co-op action-adventure adapts One Thousand and One Nights, casting players as three heroes, Yusra, Malik, and Sufyan, gathered by the storyteller Scheherazade to stop an ancient king of the Jinn from destroying humanity out of revenge. It supports solo play and drop-in, drop-out co-op for up to three players.
Hands-on coverage at gamescom 2026 centered on the flying carpet. Automaton played a pre-alpha co-op demo and chose Malik, described as a tank who fights with a shield that splits into two. The carpet handles movement, evasion, attack, and teammate rescue, and it sits at the center of combat design rather than serving as a visual gimmick. Three-player co-op against large bosses worked without pre-assigned roles. Game Spark reported that the demo showed aggressive combat, soulslike boss encounters, and a carpet system that drives both movement and battle.
MBC Game Studio announced the game with a remote team drawn partly from the region, and Creative Director Lars Bonde spent eight years at Ubisoft on Watch Dogs and Watch Dogs 2. The studio's team includes veterans from BioWare, Hi-Rez, Ubisoft Montreal, and Bungie, and is backed by MBC Group. The game is planned for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2, with cross-platform support also planned. Release timing is undecided.
