Is V Rising on PS5 and PS4 consoles? And if not, will it be?

Sadly, at time of writing, V Rising is not available on PS4 or PS5 and is only playable on PC via Steam. This means it's also not on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch consoles. Despite being a exclusive to PC right now, V Rising ports for other platforms and consoles, such as PS4 and PS5, aren't completely out of the question, but they are extremely unlikely to arrive any time soon. Read on to find out more about the future of V Rising's platform compatibility, and everything we know on which consoles the game could come to in the future.

Will V Rising be on PS4, PS5 and other consoles?

At time of writing, there has been no indication from Stunlock Studios, developers of V Rising, that the game will be ported to any console in the future, PlayStation or not. However, it also hasn't been ruled out either, so it's not impossible. 

As far as we know, Stunlock has not addressed the idea one way or another, though the silence regarding PlayStation and console ports means that even if it is being considered, it's not something we should likely expect at any time soon.

It's also important to remember that V Rising not only was released to Steam very recently, it's also very much in Early Access, meaning that the game is still basically under development. Many developers who release and build games in this manner are likely going to prioritise creating a finished product before seeing if it can be relocated to other platforms and consoles in the future (much like the whole Valheim consoles issue, where V Rising's clearest inspiration is also focused on completing the game before considering moving it to any other platform than PC).

Of course, we'll update this page should news on this issue change or the developers comment on it, but we suggest that players not get optimistic about a PS4, PS5 or any other port happening in the near future. The V Rising offline mode recently added shows that the game is constantly being enhanced, but the V Rising Roadmap reveals some of the recent priorities of the dev team, and consoles aren't even mentioned. Even if V Rising is ported while still in Early Access, it'd be a massive project that takes serious time and effort on behalf of Stunlock Studios. Sorry to tell you all this, but for now at least, it seems like Vampires are going to have to stick to this one particular castle.
