Horses of Hoofprint Bay: Console Availability

Horses of Hoofprint Bay has no confirmed console version for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, or Xbox, and no release date or timeline has been announced. The only confirmed release is on PC (Windows and Linux) via Steam, where it launched on November 4, 2026.

What the publisher has said

In a launch-period FAQ, the publisher acknowledged demand for Mobile, Mac, and console versions and said porting to other platforms is something the team wants to look into. That is a statement of interest, not a port announcement: no platforms, certification status, or timeline have been confirmed.

Where to play now

• Steam (Windows and Linux): the Steam store page lists Windows and SteamOS/Linux system requirements. A free demo is also available there.
• Mac: not listed as a natively supported platform. See Horses of Hoofprint Bay: Mac Availability.
• Mobile: no confirmed version. See Horses of Hoofprint Bay: Mobile Availability.
• Consoles: no console storefronts are referenced anywhere.

Steam Deck is not a console port

The game is marked Playable on Steam Deck, which is a compatibility rating for the PC version, not a separate console release. The publisher relayed the artist's personal setup tips:

• Choose the WASD + Mouse control scheme.
• Manually bind the B button to Escape.
• Try Proton Experimental if drag-and-drop fails.

The publisher also noted that proper controller support is something the team wants to add but has not managed so far. For details, see Horses of Hoofprint Bay: Controller Support.

How to spot a real console announcement

The reliable signal for a console release would be an official announcement from the developer or publisher, or a listing on a console storefront. Until then, the Steam version is the only confirmed way to play.
