Noita is an action roguelike set in a world where every pixel is bound by the laws of physics. As a sorcerer, you navigate procedurally generated levels, blasting your way through with spells you craft yourself. Known for its challenging gameplay, Noita was honored with the Finnish Game of the Year award in 2021. Despite its initial launch in 2020, players are still waiting for console ports. Will Noita ever make its way to Xbox, PlayStation and Switch?

As of today, Noita remains a PC exclusive title, available in a digital format on Steam. While there haven’t been any official announcements regarding console ports, a glimmer of hope exists. The game does offer partially controller support, hinting at a potential stepping stone for future adaptation. Additionally, its verification on the Steam Deck suggests the developers might be exploring controller compatibility further.

The reason for the lack of console port remains unclear. Some speculation on Reddit suggests that the game’s mechanic is the culprit. Noita’s complex and dynamic physics simulation, where every element interacts with every other, might pose technical challenges for porting to consoles.

So, what does this mean for Xbox, PlayStation or Switch players? For now, console gamers shouldn’t get their hopes up just yet. While a future port isn’t definitely excluded by the developers, the technical challenges might be substantial.
