They Are Billions comes to PS4 and Xbox One in July

BlitWorks has revealed that they're bringing the strategy game to Sony's console, and you can even play it with a mouse and keyboard if you want.

They Are Billions is a strategy game tasking you to keep humans alive following a zombie apocalypse, and while it's currently in Steam Early Access, BlitWorks CEO Tony Cabello has announced via the PlayStation Blog that the game is coming to PS4 in July.

You need to build not only a colony to survive, but also an army. Managing resources are key, and it's only by strong defences and forward-thinking that you can thrive in this broken world. Randomly-generated maps also ensure that no run is the same as another, including elements like events, weather, and geography.

"When we first talked with Numantian Games about bringing They Are Billions to PS4, we knew it was going to be a huge challenge (there can be serious amount of zombies on screen), but our experience porting other games to PlayStation 4 has paid off, and we've finally achieved a game experience as good as the original. Be prepared to face the biggest swarms of infected you've seen — up to 20,000 units in real time. Don't let them take over your colony," Cabello writes.

"We would have been reluctant to play a normal RTS on console, but the pause on They Are Billions is a game changer, and the fact that you can play it comfortably with a controller. Even more, if you still prefer to play with a mouse and keyboard the possibility is also there."

Will you be playing on console?

Update: It's also heading to Xbox One, huzzah!
