Children of the Sun is an upcoming tactical shooter/puzzle game. It has a very interesting story and the strategy revolves around one very crucial but unexpected element. Like Superhot, time slows down in this game, but not for you; for your bullet. You need to successfully land your shots on all the enemies in any particular level with one major catch; you can only fire one bullet. The bullet can be re-aimed and recurved for a successful impact, making the game a minefield of directions and tangents for you to take. If all these sound interesting to you, you might be wondering if the game will be released on consoles including the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, & Nintendo Switch. Well, we have all the information regarding the same.
Traditionally, mouse and keyboard controls are the preferred inputs for any shooter game, which is why they are primarily released on the PC platform. However, there are many instances where developers port such a game with refined mechanics to consoles for better accessibility and to satisfy demand. The controllers and their joysticks are more analog but, in a nutshell, less precise than the mouse with its customizable pointers and DPI. So, following this trend, Children of the Sun is also scheduled for a PC release, as of now, but is there a possibility of the game hitting the console market?
Is there a Children of the Sun PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch Release Date?
The announcement of Children of the Sun came in the form of a reveal trailer posted on YouTube. This is accompanied by a free-to-play demo of the game on Steam. While the features of the game itself are very interesting, the developers have made subtle additions to the game that we think lend themselves very well to both PC and console platforms. First, the re-aiming of the bullet is a per-target event that puts controllers on par with mice and keyboards. Second, the game is fully Xbox controller-compatible. The only hurdle then is figuring out the performance and the graphics settings before porting it to consoles.
When will it come to Console?
This is where the catch is. We don’t really know. Since the official reveal trailer did not specify a release date for PC or console, we cannot comment. What is certain is that the game will launch on PC first and then if it is successful, the developers might port it to consoles. A similar query appeared on the game’s Steam forum, where a player asked whether the game would be available for Xbox, to which one of the developers commented:
For now only PC is planned.
This leads us to believe that the possibility of Children of the Sun being available on consoles like PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch is not none, as the developer didn’t outright mention that they have no plans for the same.
Console release date
It is more than likely that Children of the Sun will see an eventual console release. Based on the look and play of the game, a console port is not entirely impossible. However, since the developers have not yet revealed the release date of the game for PC itself, we cannot make any speculation on when it will be coming to consoles, if any. So, right now, you will have to wait until more information is revealed.
Well, this was all about the potential release of Children of the Sun on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.
