DuneCrawl launches on PS5, Xbox Series, and Android October 19, Switch 2 arrives in 2026

Alientrap is expanding the reach of DuneCrawl to consoles and mobile devices, giving players who missed the initial PC launch a new window to experience the game. The open-world action adventure title arrives on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series consoles, and Android devices on October 19. This release allows friends to team up in parties of four to explore the sandy seas atop a gigantic Crab Crawler. Players who prefer handheld gaming or Nintendo hardware will need to wait until later in 2026 for the Switch and Switch 2 versions.

Alientrap expands DuneCrawl to consoles and mobile with a 2026 Switch 2 release

The game features a unique premise where players and up to three friends navigate a massive, mobile desert environment. Alientrap describes the experience as an open-world action adventure centered around this colossal vehicle. The core loop involves exploring the sandy seas that surround the Crab Crawler. This cooperative structure defines the social aspect of the title, encouraging group play across different platforms.

DuneCrawl previously launched on PC via Steam on January 5, establishing its initial player base. The new ports bring the same core experience to modern console hardware and mobile operating systems. The October 19 release covers the major current-generation consoles and the Android ecosystem. Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 versions are scheduled for a later release in 2026, extending the game's lifecycle.

This multi-platform rollout follows the pattern of other recent releases like Dragon’s Dogma II and Kingdom Hearts Collection, which also launched on Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series, and PC. When we covered the last DuneCrawl update, several of the same balance and stability themes came up. Alientrap announced that DuneCrawl, an open-world action adventure game where players and up to three friends explore the sandy seas atop a gigantic Crab Crawler, will launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Android on October 19, with Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch versions arriving later in 2026. The October 19 date marks the first time the title is available on non-PC hardware.
