The wait for PlayStation fans is nearly over as “Dungeons of Hinterberg” plans to debut on the PS5 on March 13, 2025. Originally rolled out exclusively for Xbox on July 18, 2024, this action-packed RPG from Microbird Games brought its intricate puzzles and adrenaline-pumping combats to Xbox Series X/S consoles and PC.
Microsoft is shaking up the gaming landscape with a fresh strategy, opting to share its beloved titles across platforms. Unlike Sony’s tendency to hold games within its ecosystem, Xbox is branching out, and fans are noticing. This means you’ll find what were once Xbox staples, like “Hi-Fi Rush” and “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle,” either already available on PlayStation or set to make the leap soon. So, it’s no big shocker that after some successful Xbox-to-PlayStation transitions, “Dungeons of Hinterberg” will be the next on Sony’s roster.
Over on Twitter, Microbird Games disclosed that the fantasy adventure is landing on PS5 soon, expanding its availability across major gaming platforms, albeit skipping the Nintendo Switch for now. There’s buzz around an additional “secret bonus episode” for the PS5 version, pointing to yet another Xbox title potentially getting an enriched port for Sony’s console crowd. The game already basks in the glory of an impressive OpenCritic score of 81, adding more allure for PlayStation indie enthusiasts.
As 2025 kicks off with major Xbox franchises making their way to PlayStation, “Dungeons of Hinterberg” joins the list of upcoming releases. In a surprise move, “Forza Horizon 5” is slated for a Spring 2025 release on PS5, leaving fans eager for even more cross-platform announcements. With murmurs about “Halo” and “Gears of War” possibly following suit, the tide of exclusivity seems to be waning.
Interestingly, the exchange isn’t one-way. Games have trickled in from Sony to Xbox as well, like “Kena: Bridge of Spirits,” which shifted in August 2024, enriching the Xbox catalog further.
In the colorful world of Hinterberg, players step into the shoes of Luisa, a hardworking law trainee trading her demanding career for a more adventurous life. She embarks on a journey through whimsical Alpine dungeons, wielding swords and casting spells to keep monsters at bay. Will Luisa’s escapades make her a celebrated Master Slayer, or see her retreat on the first day? With options to snowboard, zipline, and navigate brainy puzzles, the game offers a delightful challenge to all who venture into its enchanting realms.
Dungeons of Hinterberg captured hearts with its multifaceted gameplay combining action RPG, puzzle-solving, and hack-and-slash elements. Developed on Unity by Microbird Games and published by Curve Games, its charming visuals and engaging story have placed it among must-plays for enthusiasts, clocking in at an average runtime of 15 hours to beat. The upcoming release promises yet another enriching journey for PlayStation gamers.
