Is Halloween: The Game on PS5?
Yes. Yes — a launch platform. The official site links straight to the PlayStation Store, and a physical PS5 Limited Collector's Edition exists alongside the digital versions.
Yes. PlayStation 5 is one of the launch platforms and the official site links directly to the PlayStation Store from its purchase row, alongside Steam, Xbox and the Epic Games Store. The PS5 version launched on September 8, 2026 at the same price as everywhere else, $39.99 for the Standard Edition.
PS5 is also the console that gets the physical release. A Limited Collector’s Edition exists as a PS5 disc product and is sold through retailers rather than through the PlayStation Store — which is why searches for it turn up stock pages at GameStop and specialist collector’s-edition shops rather than a storefront listing.
The PS4 question has a different answer: there is no PS4 version, and none has been announced. The PlayStation release is PS5 only. The minimum PC specification is a fair indication of why — 16 GB of RAM, DirectX 12 and a required SSD are not a last-generation profile.
Related questions
- Is Halloween: The Game coming to PS4?
- No. Nothing from IllFonic or Gun Interactive has announced a PS4 version, and the official purchase links point only at the PS5 product. Treat any listing claiming otherwise with suspicion.
- Is there a physical PS5 edition?
- Yes — a Limited Collector's Edition on disc for PS5, sold through retailers. It is a separate product from the Digital Standard and Digital Deluxe editions, and it does not carry the Advance Access that the Digital Deluxe pre-order did.
- Can PS5 players play with PC or Xbox players?
- Unconfirmed. None of the official posts mention crossplay or cross-progression. The Steam category list is not a reliable signal here — the same co-publisher's Texas Chain Saw Massacre has crossplay and its listing is untagged too. Check the in-game settings.
- Does the PS5 version cost the same?
- Yes — $39.99 for the Standard Edition, matching the Steam price. The Digital Deluxe Edition is $59.99 across platforms.
Every platform, answered
| Xbox Series X|S | Yes | Yes — a launch platform, with its own purchase link on the official site. Xbox Game Pass is a separate question and the answer there is no. |
|---|---|---|
| PC (Steam / Epic) | Yes | Yes — same-day on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Steam lists Windows only: there is no macOS and no Linux build. |
| Nintendo Switch / Switch 2 | No | No. No Switch or Switch 2 version has been announced, and the word Nintendo does not appear anywhere on the official site — including on the purchase row, which lists Steam, PlayStation, Xbox and Epic and nothing else. |
| PlayStation 4 | No | No. The PlayStation release is PS5 only; no PS4 version is listed or announced. The minimum PC spec — 16 GB RAM, DirectX 12, SSD required — is a fair indicator of why. |
| Xbox Game Pass | No | No. The game is on Xbox Series X|S as a $39.99 purchase; nothing from IllFonic, Gun Interactive or Xbox has announced a Game Pass release. Being on Xbox and being on Game Pass are different things. |
| Steam Deck | No | Not rated yet. Valve's Deck compatibility report for this app returns "Unknown" — the game has not been through the Verified/Playable review. The minimum spec asks for a GTX 1660-class GPU and an SSD, so treat it as untested rather than as either a yes or a no. |
| Crossplay | No | Unknown — and the store listing cannot settle it. None of the 21 official news posts mentions crossplay or cross-progression at all. Steam's category list does not carry the Cross-Platform Multiplayer tag, but that proves nothing here: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, from the same co-publisher, does have crossplay and its Steam listing is untagged too. Check in-game rather than trusting either. |
| Australia | No | Not purchasable on Steam in Australia. Querying the Steam store API with cc=AU returns no listing for this game, while the same query for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre returns a normal A$21.95 listing — so it is this title, not the region. New Zealand is unaffected and can buy it at NZ$60.99. |
