Release

At Gamescom 2024, it was announced that Monument Valley 3 would launch exclusively on Netflix Games on 10 December 2024.[2] It was also announced that the first two games were to be moved to Netflix Games.[2] The game's producers cited lack of visibility as the primary reason for the move away from Apple's App Store.[3] An animated short film, titled "The Lighthouse", was created by Moth Studio Production[4] to promote the game and was released the same day.[5]

Monument Valley 3 was released by Ustwo Games on Nintendo Switch, Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and Series S on 22 July 2025[6] and Netflix removed the game from their platform on 14 July 2025.[7] It was re-released by Ustwo to iOS and Android as a try-before-you-buy app on 3 December 2025. A free expansion, titled The Garden of Life and adding four new chapters, was also released the same day for all versions.[8]
