Is Escape From Tarkov on PS4 and Xbox One?

At the moment, Escape From Tarkov is only available for PC. It's not even on Steam or Epic Games Store, but on its own launcher. The game hasn't even technically launched yet. It's still in beta, but anyone can play right now, as anyone who pre-orders the game has instant access to the closed beta, which dominated Twitch thanks to the recent introduction of Twitch Drops.



As for a console release, there's nothing on the table at this time. A 2015 FAQ (via wccftech) reveals that the developers at one point were considering a PS4 and Xbox One version of Escape From Tarkov, but there has been no news of a console port since then. Even if a console version were scheduled for later, development on a PlayStation 4 and Xbox One version of EFT would likely not begin until the full release of the PC version. Because EFT has been in development for a while and has been in closed beta for two and a half years at this point, the full PC version is probably still a long way off.

That's not even mentioning the multitude of controls and bindings needed to play. There's a lot more input on a keyboard than on a standard controller, which would make the transfer process difficult. PC games with tons of controls have been successfully ported to consoles in the past, but Escape From Tarkov is unlikely to appear on PS4 and Xbox One. There is a possibility that it will launch on next-gen consoles like PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X after the full release of the PC version, but even that isn't too likely. Escape From Tarkov will likely remain a PC exclusive for the foreseeable future.
