There is a great deal of confusion around what, where, and with who you can play the new FPS shooter Delta Force at the moment. Is it out, is it not out and can you play it on a console? Well to clear at least some of it up, the game is not out fully yet and has been released currently as a PC-only demo as part of Steam Next Fest, the twice-yearly showcase of upcoming PC games. Is Delta Force coming to PS5 and Xbox? We have had confirmation that Delta Force will be coming to multiple platforms other than PC when the devs recently said, “The game will be available on PS4/5, Xbox Series X/S, Steam, Epic, iOS, and Android platforms”. Delta Force was also shown off as a PS4 and PS5 trailer at Summer Game Fest earlier in the year so it is definitely incoming, as they say in the military. When is Delta Force out on PS5? As yet there is no timeline for the console release – there isn’t even a date for the PC release yet.
