HOUND13 is shifting its focus for the game DragonSword: Awakening to the PlayStation 5 console. This move matters because it brings the title to the platform with the largest installed user base among current consoles. Players who prefer the Sony ecosystem will finally have a native option to play the game.
Developer targets largest console user base before Xbox
The developer confirmed that the initial port targets the PlayStation 5 first. They explicitly stated that an Xbox version is a lower priority and will not launch in the short term. This decision reflects a strategy to maximize reach on the most popular hardware before expanding to other platforms.
HOUND13 provided specific details regarding future platform availability. The studio said the Nintendo Switch 2 timeline remains undetermined and depends on developer status and certification processes. Meanwhile, the team is actively working on compatibility improvements for the Steam Deck handheld.
We looked at NEO BERLIN 2087 Action RPG Launches earlier while tracking Hound13 launches. The studio emphasized that platform ports start with PlayStation 5, which has more users. Xbox is lower priority and won’t happen in the short term. These confirmed steps outline the immediate roadmap for console players.
