Is R.E.P.O. coming to consoles?

Is there hope for a console release?

R.E.P.O. has been a smash hit on PC since it launched in late February 2025, leaving console players on Xbox, PS5, and Switch a little envious at all the fun everyone else is having.

The game is currently in early access with a handful of maps available, but a nice amount of content is available to sink your teeth into. R.E.P.O. has over a dozen different types of monsters, all with their own special abilities, unique varied maps, and hours of replayable content.

There is even in-game matchmaking, hopefully coming soon, for PC players, but as for console players, when can they join in on the fun?

Is REPO coming to PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch?

While R.E.P.O. games have appeared on PlayStation store not long after the game’s initial release on Feb. 26, these are not official. Developer semiwork confirmed on March 21 that R.E.P.O. may launch on consoles after its 1.0 full release. This small team of developers has given themselves a six to 12-month development period to complete R.E.P.O. so it can move on from the early access stage. This doesn’t mean that a console release is guaranteed. In fact, semiwork said it’s something they “will look into once we’ve gone out of early access.”

Features like crossplay isn’t something semiwork have experience in. This is another component they will have to look into, much like matchmaking and the implementation of a kick feature. But, just like R.E.P.O. releasing on console, crossplay is an obstacle semiwork will only think about once version 1.0 comes out.

With an estimated timeframe of 12 months given for R.E.P.O.‘s development, semiwork hopes to release this game as a full and finished product anytime from Feb. 26, 2026. So, you shouldn’t expect a console release within 2025. Now that a console release isn’t confirmed nor denied, we can only look forward to see what semiwork come up with as R.E.P.O. is expanded upon; with lore to find, new maps to explore, and possible changes to late-game content for you to dive into as the game remains in early access for the foreseeable future.

As for Switch, even games like Lethal Company missed out on the Nintendo system due to its lack of early access support features, so it’s unlikely to come to consoles until the game gets a full 1.0 release and leaves early access completely. But by then, we imagine it would make more sense for the game to come to the Switch successor, the Switch 2.
