After a four-month stay in Early Access, the ancient Greek bullet heaven otherwise known as Achilles: Survivor is about to lose its EA tags and hit the big 1.0.

Following the end of its Early Access run, Achilles: Survivor is also heading to PlayStation consoles, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox platforms in Q3 2025, we can confirm.

The upcoming console launch will follow the new 1.0 update, which is hitting PC on July 29th. There’s a new trailer to mark the news, and you can read the original console announcement story below!

Original: Achilles: Survivor is a spin-off to the action RPG Achilles: Legends Untold, which launched back in 2023. Also developed and published by Dark Point Games, this fast-paced bullet hell sees players face off against waves of enemies playing as the titular mythological hero.

The game distances itself from others in the genre as it has a unique building mechanic, allowing players to use defensive towers, healing structures, or offensive traps to help turn the tide of battle.

The news follows after the game’s Mountain Fortress update, which launched earlier in May and was its largest update to date. This content expansion added a third realm consisting of five handcrafted locations, a new survivor Phalanx, the Venomous Spider, and several new game modes, including a short-run mode.
