Elite: Dangerous could come to PS4 and Xbox One, too, Frontier boss David Braben has teased.

Speaking to Eurogamer, Braben made sure not to say anything that “constitutes an announcement”, but said that Frontier “would be stupid not to support other platforms, including console”.

“We’ve done lots and lots of games over time,” he continued. “We’ve done first-party Sony games. We’ve done first party Microsoft games. On console. So yes, we’d be stupid not to think about it.

“But the point is, we’re very focused on delivering a great PC game. We will then do the game on Mac and during that time we will be looking at other platforms as well.”

Elite: Dangerous began as a Kickstarter project for PC in late 2012, with the aim to let players “trade, bounty-hunt, pirate, assassinate your way across the galaxy”. The Kickstarter went on to earn over £1.5m in pledges.

A beta for the game is due to release at the end of July and is available to those who pledge £50 to the project.

The full game is expected to release on PC later this year.
