Quick answer
Yes — you can play Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy on PC, PS5 and Xbox. Windows PC players can buy it on Steam, the Epic Games Store or the Xbox/Microsoft Store; console players need a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. It launched on August 27, 2026, is included with PC Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate, and carries the Xbox Play Anywhere entitlement.

PC availability
Focus Entertainment's launch announcement names Steam and the Epic Games Store as the game's PC storefronts, and the Xbox/Microsoft Store sells a Windows PC version as part of Xbox Play Anywhere. All three were live and selling the game at our August 29, 2026 check, so PC players can pick a storefront based on library, features or subscription rather than availability.
The store presentations differ in the details they expose. Steam lists the fullest feature set — achievements, trading cards, cloud saves, HDR and Family Sharing — while Epic's page highlights the Base Game with 17 text languages and voice work in English, French, Spanish, German and Simplified Chinese. Epic's page also showed a 08/28/26 release-date display in our check, a store-side difference we track on the release date page rather than treating as a separate launch.
PS5 availability
Resonance launched on PS5 on August 27, 2026, and PlayStation Store pages in the US and Hong Kong sell it as a standard digital purchase. The Hong Kong store page is the most detailed we checked: it marks the game as PS5 Pro Enhanced, playable offline, single-player only, and lists DualSense wireless controller effects plus 23 accessibility features.
Two subscription notes deserve precision. The store page ties PS5 and PS Portal cloud streaming of this title to a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription — that is a streaming condition, not catalog inclusion. Actual PS Plus game-catalog membership had not been shown on the product page as of August 29, 2026, so we do not claim it.
Xbox Series X|S availability
The Xbox store page confirms the game is Optimized for Xbox Series X|S, released on August 27, 2026, and sold with Xbox Play Anywhere, so one digital purchase spans Xbox consoles and Windows PC within the Microsoft ecosystem. The same page lists 4K Ultra HD, HDR10, Xbox achievements and Xbox cloud saves among its capabilities.
The 'Play with' list — Xbox Series X|S, PC, Xbox Cloud Gaming and Handheld — describes access routes, and the page carries a separate Handheld Optimized badge. These badges do not indicate extra native console versions or performance modes; the store publishes no resolution or frame-rate targets, so we do not either.
Steam version
Steam's store page shows the game as Released on August 27, 2026 with Add to Cart available, alongside Single-player, Steam Achievements, Steam Trading Cards, Steam Cloud, HDR available and Family Sharing. Steam also lists 17 supported languages, with full voice work in English, French, German, Spanish and Simplified Chinese.
The Heritage Pack DLC went live the same day and is sold separately; it requires the base game and adds the Minoan Sword, Alec's Pendant and a digital artbook. One open discrepancy: a pinned developer post on Steam lists 16 subtitle languages while the store page says 17 supported — we record both readings rather than picking one.
Is Resonance on Game Pass?
Yes — and it was a day-one inclusion. Xbox Wire's August 18, 2026 Game Pass announcement listed Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy for Cloud, Console, Handheld and PC on August 27, available on day one with Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. The Xbox store's 'Included in these subscriptions' section still showed 'PC only' and 'Ultimate' at our August 29, 2026 check.
The tier boundary matters. The store states the game is 'Cloud playable… included with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate', while streaming it with Game Pass Essential or Premium requires buying the game first. In other words: PC Game Pass and Ultimate include it as catalog titles; Essential and Premium only add cloud access once you own the game. No departure date from Game Pass had been announced.

Frequently asked questions
Is Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy on Steam?
Yes. Steam lists the game as released on August 27, 2026, with Steam Achievements, Trading Cards, Steam Cloud, HDR support and Family Sharing. The Heritage Pack add-on is sold separately on Steam and requires the base game.
Is Resonance on Xbox Game Pass?
Yes — it joined on day one. The Xbox store lists it under the PC Game Pass ('PC only') and Game Pass Ultimate subscriptions. Cloud streaming with Game Pass Essential or Premium requires buying the game first; those tiers do not include it in their catalogs.
Is there a PS5 version?
Yes. The game launched on PS5 on August 27, 2026, and the Hong Kong PlayStation Store page flags it as PS5 Pro Enhanced with offline play, single-player support and DualSense effects. PS Plus catalog inclusion has not been confirmed; PS5 and PS Portal cloud streaming is tied to a Premium subscription per the store page.
Does Xbox Play Anywhere mean cross-play?
No. Play Anywhere is Microsoft's cross-device entitlement inside the Xbox ecosystem — one purchase covers Xbox consoles and Windows PC. It is not an online cross-play feature, and all store pages list the game as single-player.
Is the game on PS4, Xbox One or GOG?
Not as of our August 29, 2026 check. Official pages cover PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC only, and GOG shows a community wishlist page rather than a store listing. No future ports had been announced either way.
