Wandering Sword now has a new console release date: January 21, 2027. The delay affects the PlayStation 5 version, and the same date now applies to Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch. That means all announced console versions are now lined up for a single launch day instead of arriving in stages.
Digital pre-orders are already live on PlayStation Store. The listed price is 24.99€, keeping the game in the mid-range bracket for a premium RPG release. The delay has been linked to schedule adjustments for the physical edition, so the change affects the broader console rollout rather than only one platform.
Wandering Sword is not a brand-new release. It first launched on PC via Steam on September 14, 2023, where it currently holds a 94% positive score from roughly 35,000 user reviews. That reception gives the console debut extra context, especially for players who have been waiting to see how the wuxia RPG translates to home systems. The game blends Chinese martial-arts storytelling with grid-based combat and lets players switch between turn-based and real-time modes, which remains one of its most distinctive features.
The previously announced PS5 date was May 28, 2026, so the new schedule pushes the console launch back by several months. At the moment, no platform-specific differences have been announced beyond the shared release date.
