Crusader Kings III: Delayed Expansions on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S
Crusader Kings III is a popular grand strategy game, but there’s a noticeable difference between the PC version and the PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X/S versions. While the PC version has already seen five major expansions, the console versions are a bit behind. The latest expansion, Tours and Tournaments, is the fifth major expansion out of ten planned for the game.
Currently, players on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S are still waiting for several expansions that have already been released for the PC. This delay means that console players don’t yet have access to some of the features and updates that have been available to PC players for months.
| Platform | Current Expansion | Total Expansions Released |
|---|---|---|
| PC | Tours and Tournaments | 5/10 |
| PS5 & Xbox Series X/S | Tours and Tournaments (TBA) | Behind (Expansions Delayed) |

Why Are the Expansions Delayed on Consoles?
The delay in expansions for Crusader Kings III on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S is mostly due to the development and testing process for these platforms. The game’s complex mechanics and massive content updates take time to adjust and optimize for consoles. This is common for many PC-to-console ports, as developers need to ensure the game runs smoothly and without issues.
Players on consoles may have to wait a bit longer for upcoming expansions, but the developers at Paradox Interactive are working to bring the content to these platforms as soon as possible.
What Are the Expansions About?
The Tours and Tournaments expansion introduces new features like knightly tournaments and grand tours for monarchs, which add new layers to the game’s storytelling and strategy. Players can host events, travel across their kingdoms, and interact with different characters in new ways. It’s one of the most exciting expansions, and console players will have access to it soon, but not yet.
Conclusion
If you’re a Crusader Kings III fan on PS5 or Xbox Series X/S, it might be a bit frustrating that the console versions are behind the PC version. However, the developers are actively working on releasing these expansions for consoles. You can expect Tours and Tournaments and other major updates soon.
