That said, Kerbal Space Program is still best played on PC in my opinion but having the game available and playable on a console does not significantly detract from it at all. The radial menu available is a great addition and simplifies much of the hassle of finding and clicking on specific contextual menus. On PS4, the controls are a bit iffy though with the analogue sticks being way too sensitive when trying to set specific parameters.

You’ll also learn about the various stages of launching a spacecraft as well as how to safely land them either back on Kerbin or on another stellar body. Using the easy to use editor, you’ll spend literal hours in the hangar constructing new spacecraft for the missions at hand. Kerbal Space Program encourages gamers to build new spacecraft and be creative. While that might be fun to see in action the first couple of times, it’s not the point of the game. Your spacecraft will crash and your poor Kerbals will die a gruesome death. This isn’t a game you can just pick up and play and hope for the best. Newcomers to the game will have to play through the multiple tutorial levels and even then, getting to grips with the game is something that can easily take hours and hours of gameplay.

Kerbal Space Program is a very complex game.

We got a chance to try out the Breaking Ground expansion pack which has only recently been released in EU regions onto the PS4. The PS4 edition however only launched much later to a global audience in the form of the Enhanced Edition. What initially launched into Steam Early Access way back in 2013, finally made its way to consoles in 2016. Kerbal Space Program has been around for almost a decade now.
