Crusader Kings 3 revamps its presentation for PS5 & Xbox Series X release
techradar.comParadox Interactive has announced that Crusader Kings 3, its grand strategy game for PC, will release for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on March 29.
In the announcement trailer, Paradox explains that this is less a port of the PC game and more of an adaptation, as the development team has had to change the presentation and menus to better suit console players.
A separate PlayStation Blog post written by Justin Forrest, design director at Lab42 Games (which has partnered with Paradox for the console releases), also confirmed that the PS5 version will boast unique features for the DualSense controller.
Haptic and speaker feedback will change depending on the terrain of the map and the adaptive triggers will even push back if you make decisions that go against your character's wishes. The more stressed they are, the more resistance you'll face.
Forrest promises a smooth learning experience so new players won't feel overwhelmed and short loading times, which you can no doubt expect for the Xbox version as well.
Before the next-gen releases, the PC version of Crusader Kings 3 will receive a free 1.5 update alongside the paid Royal Court expansion on February 8. This expansion will be available for the console versions as well.
One major addition this update includes is support for same-sex marriages. Originally, this was only possible through fan-made mods, but Paradox intends on making it an official rule within the game.
