Red Barrels’ latest horror game The Outlast Trials has arrived in Early Access on Steam, sending shivers down the spines of players. But what about console versions? Is The Outlast Trials available on PS4, PS5, and Xbox? Let’s dive in and find out.
No Console Release for Now
The Outlast Trials is currently available exclusively on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, with no development for console versions announced by Red Barrels. The earlier iteration of the game, Outlast 2, had a simultaneous release on both PC and console platforms. However, The Outlast Trials team identified that they’re working towards cross-platform playability on as many consoles as possible.
“For everyone asking about consoles, we are working to have The Outlast Trials be playable on as many platforms as possible with cross-platform play but no cross-progression. This will take time and we aim to have this for full launch, but it won’t be available for EA (Early Access).”
So, there is no immediate plan to launch The Outlast Trials on consoles.
Predicting the Release Date
The release of The Outlast Trials for PC in Early Access created excitement among gamers, and they are eager to know when it’s coming to consoles. Considering the gaming industry trends, it’s likely that the game will be launched either in late 2023 or early 2024 after the full launch.
