I hope it controls okay with a gamepad
Squad’s space flight simulatorKerbal Space Programwill always be best played on a PC (controls, mods, etc.), but I’m pleased it’s headed to other platforms so more of you can experience it. There’s nothing quite like it, and I’m curious to see how it fares with the console crowd. Long time coming!
The PlayStation 4 version (shown above running at a not-exactly-ideal frame rate) will be out on Tuesday, July 12, with the Xbox One portalso coming this month.Kerbalis still planned for Wii U “later this year,” which is a pleasant surprise. Squad hasn’t divulged the price point yet, but on Steam, the game is $39.99; I’d expect the console versions to cost at least that much.
Part of the fun ofKerbalis trying, failing, and learning on your own, particularly when it comes to rocket building, but I wouldhighlyencourage new players to lean on Scott Manley’stutorial videosto get the basics down. He was an invaluable resource for me when I was first starting out.
