Overview
- Developer BeamNG announced Thursday that BeamNG.drive will enter Early Access on PlayStation 5 on Monday, October 19, 2026.
- The PS5 build will ship with a new day‑one vehicle and local split‑screen, and will use FSR 3.0 on the base PS5 and PlayStation Super Spectral Resolution on PS5 Pro to boost image quality and performance.
- BeamNG says mod support will not be available at launch and that mod authoring tools such as the World Editor are not planned for PlayStation at this time.
- The PS5 release arrives alongside the PC 0.40 update as part of BeamNG’s ongoing model of frequent free updates, a development pattern that established the game’s large, mod‑driven PC community.
- Price and pre‑order details have not been announced and the game is currently available to wishlist on the PlayStation Store, a rollout that could widen the player base while leaving modders waiting for future console tooling.
