The Lantern of the Laughless Saint PS5, Xbox and Console Status

The Lantern of the Laughless Saint PS5 answer is simple and disappointing if you were hoping to play on console: there is no PlayStation 5 version. The store listing supports Windows only, the developer has announced no console port, and no console release window appears anywhere in the record. This page collects the platform facts that are actually documented — the Windows release details, the PC system requirements, and the Steam Deck result — so you can decide where to play without chasing a port that has not been announced.

Is It on PS5, Xbox or Any Console?

No console version exists. Steam is the only storefront carrying the game, and its supported-systems field lists Windows alone, with macOS and Linux both false. Because the game is an Early Access release from August 2026, a later console port is technically possible, but nothing in the developer's stated plans mentions one.

Platform	Documented status
Windows (Steam)	Released August 17, 2026 in Early Access
PlayStation 5	Not released; not announced
Xbox Series / Xbox One	Not released; not announced
Nintendo Switch	Not released; not announced
macOS	Not supported (Steam lists Windows only)
Linux / SteamOS	Not an official platform, though SteamOS compatibility has been tested
Steam Deck	Playable per SteamDB's compatibility test

• A PS5 page that lists no official publisher link is a placeholder, not a port announcement.
• Console support would likely require a separate announcement, because the developer's published roadmap covers content, not platforms.
• If you want to follow the question, watch official Steam announcements rather than store aggregators.
• Buying on Steam is currently the only way to play; there is no console pre-order or console demo.

The Windows Release Facts

The release itself is well documented, which matters because console questions often come from people trying to match a version they already own. The game launched into Early Access at $17.99, down from a $19.99 list price during a launch promotion, with NerveLabs as both developer and publisher.

Fact	Detail
Release date	August 17, 2026 (Early Access)
Price	$17.99, from a $19.99 list price during the launch promotion
Developer / publisher	NerveLabs
Engine	Detected as Unreal Engine
Multiplayer requirement	A network connection is required for multiplayer
Store features	Remote Play Together, Family Sharing, Partial Controller Support

• Early Access status means content additions are planned, including new enemies, areas, equipment and quests.
• The developer has said the Early Access period should last under a year, with updates roughly every one to two weeks.
• Cross-platform play is not confirmed, so console or cross-play expectations should stay unverified.
• Local split-screen and shared-screen co-op are listed, which changes the hardware question from "console or not" to "who is on the same machine".

System Requirements and Steam Deck

The PC requirements are moderate on paper, and SteamDB's compatibility test gives the clearest answer on handheld play. Its September 2026 test records the game as Playable on Steam Deck and Compatible on SteamOS, with the caveat that some in-game text is small and may be difficult to read, and that external controllers may need to be switched manually through the Quick Access Menu.

Requirement	Minimum	Recommended
OS	Windows 10 or higher, 64-bit	Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit
Processor	Intel Core i5-4460 or better, quad-core	Not published on the store page
Memory	8 GB RAM	Not published
Graphics	Nvidia GTX 970 or AMD R9 290 equivalent	Not published
DirectX	Version 12	Version 12
Storage	8 GB available space	8 GB available space

Steam lists Partial Controller Support rather than full, so expect to use a mouse and keyboard for at least some menus and interactions. Multiplayer additionally requires a network connection, which is worth knowing before planning a split-screen session on an offline machine.

The practical summary: Windows on Steam is the only supported platform, Steam Deck is the closest thing to a console experience and is rated Playable, and PS5 and Xbox remain unannounced.
