"The immediate plan, and this is why I won't go on a holiday anytime soon, is to get Disco Elysium to as many people as possible," Kurvitz said. "We're going to port it next year to PlayStation and Xbox. We need to be very hands-on with the design of that. We don't want to hire a porting company. We think it really is going to lend itself very well to console play because you don't need to go over minute tactics and use a mouse because it's very narrative in its nature."

Kurvitz is also working on translating the game into Chinese and several European languages. An English translation of Sacred and Terrible Air, the novel by Kurvitz that serves as the game's source material, is likewise forthcoming.

Disco Elysium tells the story of an alcoholic, partially amnesiac cop who has to solve a murder in the fictional city of Revachol. The game revolves almost completely around dialogue and skill checks, not being about combat

That was quick. Interesting that they're doing it themselves, but if it gives them more oversight on the quality of the ports and saves a bit of money in the process, I can understand it. I'm not sure how much it would cost a porting company compared to the cost of a DIY port, especially for a small independent team.

Great to hear that they are bringing it to consoles - for some reason i though this was coming to Switch as well or already has been confirmed.

Does the game run on Unity or what engine did they use ?

Hell yes! Glad I stopped playing. I want to do this in my native language, the writing is too good for me. xD

There's a lot of text in the game, right? I wonder if it will be comfortable to read it from TV. Anyway, that's good news.

They have a slider to increase or decrease the font size in the PC version. No reason to believe they won't have it for consoles as well.

Cool interested in the PS4 version, but could also be a good match for Switch. Any chance of a version on that?

Nice, I was hoping to hear this after the positive reception it's received. My laptop could maybe borderline run this, but rather than risk it bursting into flames, I'll wait for the console port.
