Is The Dead We Knew coming to PS5? Here is the latest platform information and what PlayStation players should know.
Table of Contents
The Dead We Knew does not have a confirmed PS5 version in the available release information. As of 2026-10-15, the official Steam page lists the game for Steam and does not list PlayStation 5.
Current PS5 status
The listed release is a Windows PC version planned for Steam Early Access on October 22, 2026. The page provides Windows system requirements and Steam features, but it does not provide a PS5 edition, PlayStation Store listing, or console release date.
This means PlayStation players should treat a PS5 version as unconfirmed, rather than assume that the Steam release will also launch on PS5. The developer could announce console support later, but no supported PS5 details are given on the official Steam listing dated 2026-10-15.
What the Steam version includes
The announced PC version is an open-world survival game with:
- Single-player and online co-op
- Zombies and hostile human enemies
- Shelter construction and crafting
- Hunger, thirst, and energy management
- Hunting, farming, cooking, and resource gathering
- A day-and-night cycle with changing weather, wind, rain, and fog
- Swimming and boats for travel
These features describe the Steam release and should not be read as confirmation that a PS5 build exists or that PlayStation controls are supported.
What PS5 players can do
If you only own a PS5, avoid purchasing the Steam version expecting to install it on the console. Follow the Steam Community page for developer announcements and platform news, and check for a future PlayStation Store listing if console support is announced.
A community video discussing the game is available on YouTube, but it discusses the PC/Steam release and does not confirm PS5 support.
