    Hi
    Welcome to the most awesome unity game that has never been completed.

    I'm not a frequent reader of the dev blogs, but from where I stand I don't really see the point of porting this game to a console. It's not NMS, it's more SE. (Who for example hinted at PS4 11 months ago, and promptly went quiet on it.) If Keen software cannot do it, Eleon probably cannot either.

    This is something that isn't really determined at this point in time since the game is very much still in the middle of being developed.

    However, if you were to compare the PS4 specs to the equivalent pc build, I think you will find it is extremely unlikely this game ever gets ported to PS4 (or any last generation consoles for that matter).

    The PS4 only has 8GB of RAM which has to be shared with the graphics since it has 0 dedicated video RAM.
    Strikes 1 and 2.
    The equivalent PC graphics card to the PS4 would be something like a GTX 650 or GTX 750.
    Strike 3.

    Compare that to the games minimum specs.
    10GB dedicated system RAM.
    GTX 1050 with minimum 2 GB VRAM.

    The PS4 just doesn't cut it.
    So far we have only seen the minimum requirements for this game go up over time, never down. Unless they can pull off some amazing optimization and lower specs pretty good, it just isn't likely that port ever happens.

    Now the PS5 or even the next generation after that, maybe.
    By the time the devs would be ready for any ports (if ever) the PS6 may very well be released by then, or whatever it will end up getting called in the future.

    I can vouch, this game no longer runs on a GTX 750, it almost did a year ago, but 2 weeks ago I binned my GTX 750, it was completely unplayable.
    That said hardware functionality does lead software development, but I suspect @TwitchyJ is still reading the runes correctly, because games do tend to get it wrong most of the time. My main reason for not imagining Empyrion on console, is that filesystem requirements, and publishing and managing mods on the console will just never fly. Nobody would play this game on the PS6 if it did not have the richness and immersion that Reforged and Eden mods have given us.
