PlayStation gamers have dreamed of Animal Crossing PS4 for years now, and while that won’t ever officially happen, we now have a solid consolation prize. The PEGI website has listed that life simulator Castaway Paradise is coming to PlayStation 4. While the port hasn’t been officially announced, it was given an age rating of 3 (which means it’s “suitable for all persons”). This console version shouldn’t come as a total surprise, as the PC version of Castaway Paradise received full controller support in August 2017.
