Nightdive Studios, New Blood Interactive, and Apogee Entertainment have announced that the delayed console versions ofRise of the Triad: Ludicrous Editionwill be arriving on September 29 to PS4, Xbox One, and Switch.
Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Editionwas released on August 11, 2025 on PC. Originally, the console versions were going to launch simultaneously with the PC. However, they wereabruptly delayedabout a week before the expected launch.
The PC version packs in the original campaign, all the expansions, a newly created campaign, and a tonne of comfort features to make it the best version of the legendary 1995 FPS.
If there’s any difference between the PC and console versions, the press release doesn’t really say. In particular, I’m wondering if the map maker and fanmadeReturn of the Triadcampaigns are going to make it in.
I gavehigh marksto the PC version ofRise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition. As a shooter, it’s a little bit of a tough sell in the modern market. It does a lot to hide that it’s built on a beefed-upWolfenstein 3Dengine, but still suffers from a lot of restrictions. However, the development team clearly had a fun time on the project, and that shines through. Also, Nightdive’s efforts at porting the game to the KEX Engine are impressive and comprehensive, as always.
Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Editionis currently available on PC. It will be released on PS4, Xbox One, and Switch on June 02, 2025.
