    Absolute best strategy game on ps5. Highly addictive. The controls couldn't be better on a console.

    Das spiel macht sehr viel spass. Leider gibt es immer wieder Bugs und die Steuerung ist natürlich nicht so bequem wie auf dem PC.

    Been playing this for nearly a year on console (ps5 majorily and Xbox on gamepass) now and thought I'd write a review. Unbelievable game, considering it's been ported from PC it is still super easy to navigate the menus. The people complaining about the time it takes for the cursor to come up or the radials to open, I mean come on, really. They have done a great job to make it accessibleBeen playing this for nearly a year on console (ps5 majorily and Xbox on gamepass) now and thought I'd write a review.

I couldnt recommended this game any more highly.… Expand

    A valiant, yet only partially successful, attempt to bring Crusader Kings to PlayStation. The cumbersome control system holds it back. [Issue#14, p.91]

    Crusader Kings III is a hobby all by itself. When you start a campaign in this one, you’re going to need to settle in for the long haul, and in the initial stages, where you’ll make mistakes (and often not understand why), it can all be too overwhelming and you’ll give up on it. That’s fine if you decide on that basis that the game isn’t for you. It’s not for everyone and it’s certainly not Civilization. However, there’s no other way this game could have been made, and when it all finally clicks, the depth and intelligence of what Crusader Kings III offers also make it impossible to put down. You’re not going to find a more complex strategy game, nor a more rewarding one, on consoles.

    Crusader Kings III: Console Edition is another excellent port. The game expresses strategy in the best way and carries it in its own veins, it can be complex due to its nature but the best of all is that every match is different.
