Gears of War E-Day and State of Decay 3 Are Coming to PS5

It’s hardly groundbreaking news that more Xbox first-party titles are making their way to PlayStation 5, but it’s always interesting to get confirmation of upcoming ports for the platform.

Just two months ago, one of Xbox’s most iconic franchises was finally confirmed to arrive on PlayStation for the first time with the reveal of Gears of War: Reloaded, a new remaster of the original title built in Unreal Engine 5, set to launch on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PS5 in August 2025. Given this, it’s no longer a stretch to imagine that the franchise’s next major installment, Gears of War: E-Day, will also debut on Sony’s console.

Thanks to some recent discoveries we’ve made, we can confirm that this is indeed the case. Furthermore, another significant Xbox launch is also scheduled to join it eventually.

While it’s not specified if PS5 will be a launch platform, the most logical assumption would be that it will be a port released after its initial Xbox launch. Still, with Xbox’s recent shifts in its multiplatform strategy, nothing is certain, and a simultaneous release or a closer PS5 launch could still be on the cards.

Now, for the next game we’ve discovered is joining the list of ports being prepared for PS5, we’re talking about another franchise that has yet to debut on PlayStation: the upcoming State of Decay 3. This is confirmed by the resume of a developer working with Undead Labs, the studio behind the State of Decay series, which also lists PS5 as a target platform for the game. This finding makes us wonder if the first two games might also see a PlayStation re-release someday, but what’s certain is that a port for the third installment is already being prepared.
