Is New World available on Xbox and Playstation?

To PC or not to PC?

New World is set to release on September 28 for PC. New World is a highly-anticipated MMO being developed by Amazon and as such, some players may be wondering if the game will release on console at launch or make its way later on to Xbox and PlayStation.

The answer is no. New World will only release on PC and there are no plans for a console launch. New World's Twitter initially said that if there were any plans to release the MMO on console, they would let players know. Since then, New World has confirmed it will be PC only and doubled down on this, which you can see below.

Many players are upset about this obviously as not all gamers have a PC capable of running New World. In addition to this, limiting New World to PC limits the player base and community to one platform. As MMOs thrive on community interaction, this could cause issues.
