Fans of rhythm-based dungeon crawlers have been eagerly awaiting news about Rift of the NecroDancer, the latest installment in the Crypt of the NecroDancer series. Developed by Brace Yourself Games and Tic Toc Games, and published by Brace Yourself Games, Klei Publishing, and Klei Entertainment, this role-playing rhythm game has already made waves on Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows. But the burning question remains: Is Rift of the NecroDancer coming to PS5 and Xbox?
Is Black State Coming To Console (PS5, Xbox)? What We Know So Far
As of now, the answer is no. The game is currently exclusive to Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows. While the developers and publishers have a history of releasing games on PlayStation and Xbox platforms, they’ve chosen to focus on these two platforms for the time being. On their official X platform (formerly Twitter), the team confirmed that Rift of the NecroDancer is “currently limited to Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows.” This has left many fans wondering if they’ll ever get to experience the game on their preferred consoles.
Why the Focus on Nintendo Switch and PC?
Brace Yourself Games has a strong track record of prioritizing the Nintendo Switch for their releases. The hybrid console’s portability and unique control options make it an ideal platform for rhythm games, which often rely on precise timing and player engagement. Additionally, the PC platform offers flexibility for modding and customization, which has been a significant part of the Crypt of the NecroDancer community’s appeal.
Is STEEL HUNTERS Coming To Console (PS5, Xbox, Switch)?
That said, the developers haven’t completely ruled out the possibility of expanding to other platforms in the future. Given their history of releasing games on PlayStation and Xbox, it’s not unreasonable to hope that Rift of the NecroDancer could eventually make its way to PS5 and Xbox. However, no official announcements or timelines have been provided, so fans will need to stay tuned for updates.
