Eurogamer Recommended grand strategy game Stellaris is coming to console, to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. There’s no release date but we do know Tantalus Media will handle the port. Tantalus previously ported Cities Skylines to console for Paradox.
Stellaris’ eventual console arrival will apparently be the first time a grand strategy has been playable there – a grand strategy game being one which lets you do high-level, zoomed-out campaign strategising as well as on-the-ground, in-the-action battle management. Think of Total War or, indeed, Stellaris. How comfortable it will feel on thumbsticks remains to be seen.
Stellaris: Console Edition will come with version 1.7 of the game, and a Deluxe Edition will pack the Plantoids Species Pack, Leviathans Story Pack and Utopia Expansion.
