SEATTLE – August 14, 2025 – tinyBuild is excited to announce that the quacktion-packed persistent-world survival shooter DUCKSIDE is launching into early access on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 on September 3! DUCKSIDE’s console debut will feature full content parity with the Steam Early Access version of the game, as well as crossplay between Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
In DUCKSIDE, you'll fight against feathered and featherless foes in PvE and PvP action while gathering loot and materials to create a base and complete missions across a giant archipelago, solo or with a flock. Other ducks may be looking to steal your items from under your beak, so protect your territory! Fortify your base, upgrade your weapons, team up with friends to hunt, or simply steal from other ducks.
Arm (wing?) up and head into battle against the humans to complete missions and secure rare and valuable loot. The possibilities are endless in this persistent-world survival shooter filled with ducks, guns, emergent gameplay and never-ending quacking.
DUCKSIDE will launch onto PlayStation 5 in an early access phase and on Xbox Series X|S as part of the Game Preview program on September 3 for $14.99; there will also be a Special Duck-Ops Edition available for $17.99. Both editions of DUCKSIDE will have a 35% off limited-time launch discount. The Special Duck-Ops Edition includes the base game and the “Supporter Pack” DLC, featuring a variety of in-game skins. PlayStation buyers will receive a pack of 3 PS5 Avatars available with the Standard Edition and 15 PS5 Avatars in the Special Duck-Ops Edition.
The “First Flight” DLC will also be available for free on Xbox and to all PlayStation Plus subscribers at launch, providing new cosmetics for console players. An Xbox Dynamic Background will also be available for free at launch.
First Flight DLC Includes:
- 6 First Flight-Themed Hats
- Cozy Nest Customizations: “Paw” Nest and “Pool” Nest
