Get ready to build on a whole new level this November, as Satisfactory officially lands on PlayStation and Xbox consoles after years of anticipation. Coffee Stain Studios has confirmed that players on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S can finally join their PC counterparts on the resource-rich alien planet MASSAGE-2(A-B)b starting November 4. This marks a major expansion for the beloved factory-building simulation, bringing its intricate automation systems to a broader audience.
In Satisfactory, you step into the boots of a Pioneer employed by the massive corporation FICSIT Inc., tasked with transforming an untamed alien world into a highly efficient industrial complex. Your mission involves constructing sprawling networks of machinery to extract resources, manufacture components, and continuously expand your operations. The game challenges you to design ever more complex production lines, optimizing every step from raw material gathering to final product assembly.
Thankfully, you won’t have to tackle this monumental task alone. Cross-play support is available across all platforms, allowing friends on PC and any console to collaborate seamlessly. Up to four players can join forces in cooperative multiplayer, making factory construction a truly social experience.
The console release will include all content from the PC version up to the June 1.1 update, meaning features like functional flushable toilets will be present from day one. Xbox users can take advantage of game suspend functionality, while PlayStation players will enjoy integrated controller speaker support and advanced haptic feedback. Performance options are also plentiful, with presets including Quality mode targeting 30fps, Balanced at 40fps, and Performance mode aiming for a smooth 60fps. Cloud save support ensures that your hard work is never lost, allowing you to transition your factory between devices with ease.
Satisfactory isn’t the only game inviting players to build factories on extraterrestrial terrain. Earlier this summer, Creepy Jar unveiled StarRupture, a title that shares similarities with Satisfactory but introduces a far more hostile environment. In this upcoming game, alien lifeforms pose a significant threat, adding a layer of danger to industrial expansion. StarRupture is scheduled to enter early access on January 6, 2026.
