Xbox Series X/S & PC exclusive 'The Medium' gets rated for PS5

Bloober Team

The Xbox Series X/S and PC-exclusive title The Medium has just been rated for the PlayStation 5. It receives a Mature 17+ for Blood, Strong Language, and Violence rating from the Entertainment Software Rating Board. And the listing shows not just the Xbox platform but the PS5, too.

Koch Media announced a publishing partnership with The Medium's developer Bloober Team earlier this year, and the publisher plans a pre-E3 Koch Primetime Gaming Stream on June 11. So, we might hear more about the game's availability on Sony's console then. As IGN pointed out, it could also drum up excitement for Bloober Team's upcoming project, which it said was working on "another horror IP" with a "very famous publisher." Some of the speculations said it could be a new entry in the Silent Hill franchise.

Xbox exclusive 'The Medium' won't come out until January 2021

It looks like one more title is avoiding the launch of Cyberpunk 2077. The upcoming horror game from Blair Witch developer Bloober Team will be pushed back to January 28, 2021. The Medium was initially supposed to launch on December 10 for the Xbox Series S and Series X.

The studio didn't outright mention CD Projekt Red's highly anticipated title. But it said in its release, “It wasn’t an easy choice to make, but one made due to the COVID-19 situation in Poland, as well as the current schedule of other games on the market."
