Tactical FPS Hit Wardogs Confirms PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S Release Windows
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
PC sensation Wardogs is officially expanding to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in 2028 following a massive early-access launch on Steam.
Following a massive debut on Steam that pulled in over 365,000 concurrent players, developer Bulkhead has confirmed that its tactical open-world shooter, Wardogs, is officially heading to consoles. Originally reported by GameRant, the studio dropped a brand-new teaser trailer revealing a 2028 release window for both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. The game has already crossed the one-million sales milestone since launching into early access on Steam, cementing itself as an unexpected heavy-hitter in the modern multiplayer space.
Wardogs sets itself apart by dropping 100 players into massive open-world maps divided into multiple squads for realistic, tactical combat. Inspired by the classic King of the Hill missions from Arma 3, the game features an in-game economy where players earn currency during matches to buy better gear, heavy artillery, and vehicles. Developer Bulkhead has also confirmed that the title avoids gameplay-affecting microtransactions, a choice that has clearly resonated with a community tired of overly monetized live-service shooters.
The console announcement trailer also featured a clever nod to the iconic marketing campaigns of the past, specifically recreating the tone of classic Halo teasers. Console players can already add the game to their wishlists on the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store ahead of its 2028 launch. As cross-platform play becomes the baseline expectation for modern hits, expanding beyond PC is a smart play that should keep this tactical sandbox thriving for years to come.
