Button City will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC via Steam in Q3 2021, followed by PlayStation 4 and Xbox One at a later date, developer Subliminal announced in partnership with WINGS Interactive. It will support English, French, German, Spanish, and Japanese language options.
“The heart of an arcade is the community,” said Subliminl Gaming lead programmer Ryan Woodward in a press release. “We wanted to capture all those aspects to complement what is ultimately a story of belonging and friendship. We’re grateful to WINGS for helping us expand to consoles so friends can share the Button City experience together no matter what platforms they own.”
