The Xenonauts 2 PS5, PS4, Xbox release date is something fans are requesting. Developed by Goldhawk Interactive and published by Hooded Horse, this turn-based tactical strategy game is the sequel to the surprise hit Xenonauts that released in June 2014. Much of the original game was designed to match the original X-COM, and the sequel does too. Goldhawk officially announced Xenonauts 2 in 2016 and distributed free builds of the game with frequent updates, with a Kickstarter campaign started in July 2018. So it’s taken a long time for backers to finally see the game release on July 18, 2023. Many are wondering if the game is coming out on console, so here’s everything we know about an Xbox or PlayStation port.
Is Xenonauts 2 coming out on console?
Xenonauts 2 isn’t confirmed for a console release.
Even back during the 2018 Kickstarter campaign, Goldhawk Interactive never mentioned a potential console port. The original game was successful enough to be ported over to Xbox and PlayStation platforms, but it remained on PC through and through. So it’s not too much of a surprise if Xenonauts 2 is never released outside of Steam.
Is there a Xenonauts 2 PS5, PS4, or Xbox release date?
There is no Xenonauts 2 PS5, PS4, or Xbox release date.
The potential of a console release date for Xenonauts 2 is fairly low given the reasons already stated. That said, the game is already in the Top 100 most wishlisted games on Steam at the time of this writing, so if it’s successful, there could be console port later down the line. A demo for the game on Steam is available for players to try.
The game’s description reads:
“Wage a global war of resistance against an alien invasion. Command turn-based tactical battles, build a network of covert bases, directly control your fighter wings, and achieve strategic victory in a simulation of asymmetric warfare against a technologically superior foe.”
