Will Manor Lords Be Coming to PS5?

Manor Lords is building a lot of hype due to the interesting combination of a city-building simulation and real-time strategy. You play the role of the lord of a settlement in the medieval era of history. You will need to build your town and look after your people while making sure you train soldiers to keep everyone safe.

Manor Lords will have you take control of armies in wide-scale battles to defend your land from bandits and invading forces. We still don’t know all of the units we will be able to train and deploy but from what we have seen, there will be a large selection to choose from.

Will Manor Lords Be Coming to Consoles?

While Slavic Magic will release Manor Lords early access only on PC on April 26, they have stated that they have plans to launch the game on console. So far they have announced that Xbox will be the first console to see Manor Lords and have not mentioned PlayStation yet.

If you are wondering if Manor Lords will be coming to PS5, the short answer is no. The long answer is we don’t know for certain but it’s unlikely. Hooded Horse, the publisher of Manor Lords, only had this to say:

All we’ve announced at the moment is that, sometime after the initial PC early access release, Manor Lords will come to Xbox consoles and Xbox Game Pass.

There has been no mention of any Microsoft exclusivity so maybe time will tell if Slavic Magic deems PlayStation as a viable option. While we do experience a lot of exclusivity when it comes to PlayStation and Xbox, some would argue it doesn’t make sense for any developers to limit their potential consumers.

Some gamers do not see the appeal of real-time strategies or city-building simulations on the console due to the shortage of buttons and how slow the thumbstick moves. Despite this, Manor Lords has seen a lot of attention from console players. As long as the game is well developed, it will have fans on all platforms. 

That's everything we know about Slavic Magic's plans to bring Manor Lords to PS5. Let's hope that with time all gamers will be able to experience the beautiful medieval strategy game.
