Moxie possibly making a comeback after featuring in M3GAN 2.0

[Chris]

Rumours are circulating on TikTok and Reddit that Moxie’s IP has been sold with the possibility Moxie might make a comeback in the near future. People have also noticed the official website is now running ads for an online casino, possibly suggesting it has changed hands and hinting at the potential buyer.

The official Moxie robot TikTok account posted a cryptic message hinting at a possible comeback.

Could it be Moxie’s popularity after featuring in M3GAN 2.0 has acted as a catalyst to entice a buyer to attempt to bring back Moxie as a consumer product? Will be interesting to see what happens and whether Embodied will continue at the helm of Moxie development or if an entirely new company and team take over.
