While a majority of players tend to lean toward hardcore games that emphasize gunplay and intense action, there are other games that can provide the same dopamine rush. As you might have guessed from the title of this article, we will be talking about Satisfactory. If you did not know, it is a game where you are tasked with constructing factories and other structures on an alien planet. You can choose to do this alone or with a friend; the choice is yours. It’s a building simulation at its core with first-person-view gameplay. Combat is a part of the game, but more emphasis is laid on the construction sim aspect. On paper, it may sound bland, but that is far from the truth, as evidenced by the game’s overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam. Pay attention to the last part: we said on Steam because the game is not available on consoles, including Xbox Series X/S and PS5. But will it be available in the future? Well, that is exactly what we will try to find out in this article.
As you might have known, Update 8 for Satisfactory was recently released on June 13. If you want the details of that update, you can get them by clicking here. Anyway, since the game has been in early access for quite some time on Epic Games and Steam, players are now hoping for its official release on consoles, including the Xbox Series X/S and PS5, sometime in the future. Let’s see if that is even a possibility.
Satisfactory game Xbox Series X & PS5 Release Date
Without beating around the bush, let us hand you some bad news. Folks, as of writing this article, there is no official release date for the game on Xbox and PlayStation consoles. But why is that so? Well, as we mentioned earlier, the game has been available since 2019 on Epic Games in Early Access. The release on Steam in June 2020 was only an extension of this Early Access period. So what does that mean? It means that the game is still in its early access period and is yet to be released officially. Naturally, until that happens, a console port is completely out of the question. Talking about the release date of the full game, we do not have any information on it either. As of now, the devs have their hands full with releasing new updates and making the game better for the full release. Furthermore, back in 2019, the official Satisfactory team did mention via a Facebook post that they were not planning to release it on consoles. Well, the FAQ section on Steam mentions the same.
So, in a nutshell, it is still very early for the game to have an Xbox or PlayStation release date. For now, all we have to do is wait for the full game to release, after which we can expect to hear more concrete answers from the developers themselves. Once we fetch the information, we will make sure to update this article accordingly. Well, we hope you got all the information you needed. For more reads like this, keep visiting Digistatement.
