Why Hard Reset is Not Coming to Consoles

August 8, 2011 by Gameranx Staff

Flying Wild Hog has detailed the reasoning behind why Hard Reset won’t be arriving on consoles.

Flying Wild Hog's explained the reasoning behind the absence of Hard Reset from consoles.

The studio's co-founder and programmer, Klaudiusz Zych, cites the age of current generation console as the reason behind Hard Reset's PC exclusivity. He told NowGamer:

It's a PC exclusive. The content is just too heavy to run on 5-year-old hardware in consoles. Hard Reset was only announced last month, but is so far along in development that it's due to launch in September – and the short promotional window has helped indie studio Flying Wild Hog to do what it does best.

He added on why the shooter received such a late reveal:

We could focus on making a game and polishing it. We are a small indie studio, so we wouldn't have the resources to hype our game for a year or more."

Zych also confirmed Hard Reset will only feature single-player and an average playthrough ranges approximately 8-10 hours. The game releases this September.
