R.E.P.O. has been a smash hit on PC because it launched in late February 2025, leaving console gamers on Xbox, PS5, and Swap slightly envious in any respect the enjoyable everybody else is having.
The sport is at present in early entry with a handful of maps out there, however a pleasant quantity of content material is accessible to sink your tooth into.

There may be even in-game matchmaking, hopefully coming quickly, for PC gamers, however as for console gamers, when can they take part on the enjoyable?
Is REPO coming to PlayStation, Xbox, and Swap?
Whereas R.E.P.O. video games have appeared on PlayStation retailer not lengthy after the sport’s preliminary launch on Feb. 26, these are usually not official. Developer semiwork confirmed on March 21 that R.E.P.O. could launch on consoles after its 1.0 full launch. This small staff of builders has given themselves a six-to-12 month growth interval to finish R.E.P.O. so it might probably transfer on from the early entry stage. This doesn’t imply nonetheless {that a} console launch is a assure. In truth, semiwork stated it’s one thing they “will look into as soon as we’ve gone out of early entry.”
Options like crossplay isn’t one thing semiwork have expertise in. That is one other part they must look into, very similar to matchmaking and the implementation of a kick characteristic. However, similar to R.E.P.O. releasing on console, crossplay is a impediment semiwork will solely take into consideration as soon as model 1.0 comes out.
With an estimated timeframe of 12 months given for R.E.P.O.‘s growth, semiwork hope to launch this recreation as a full and completed product anytime from Feb. 26, 2026. So, you shouldn’t count on a console launch inside 2025. Now {that a} console launch isn’t confirmed nor denied, we will solely look ahead to see what semiwork provide you with as R.E.P.O. is expanded upon; with lore to search out, new maps to discover, and attainable modifications to late-game content material so that you can dive into as the sport stays in early entry for the foreseeable future.
As for Swap, even video games like Deadly Firm missed out on the Nintendo system resulting from its lack of early entry help options, so it’s unlikely to come back to consoles till the sport will get a full 1.0 launch and leaves early entry fully however by then, we think about it will make extra sense for the sport to come back to the Swap successor, the Swap 2.
