Coffee Stain Studios has brought the popular factory-building game Satisfactory to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S more than a year after its full PC release. Players can now construct factories on an alien planet solo or with friends, exploring for resources and engaging in combat. The game has received high ratings from both critics and players.
Release Details
Satisfactory, developed by Coffee Stain Studios and published by Coffee Stain Publishing, exited early access and fully launched on PC in late 2024. The console version arrived this week, allowing PS5 and Xbox Series X/S players to dive into its multi-million-selling world. The game emphasizes automation, resource gathering, and base-building on an alien planet, with options for cooperative play.
Critics and players alike have praised Satisfactory for its depth and satisfaction in gameplay. As the source notes, 'Some might say it’s more than satisfactory.' This port expands access to a title that has built a massive following since its initial early access debut in 2019.
Background and Context
Originally an Xbox Series X/S launch title in early access, Satisfactory has evolved significantly. The console release follows other high-profile indie ports this week, highlighting the growing crossover between PC and console gaming ecosystems. No specific release date beyond 'this week' is mentioned, but it's available now on the respective platforms.
The move to consoles broadens the game's audience, potentially introducing it to new players via subscriptions like Xbox Game Pass, though not explicitly confirmed for consoles in the source.
