Have you always wanted to join the PC master race, but lacked the funds to do so? PC Building Simulator might be the answer. This title became pretty popular when it arrived on Steam, and it's now available on PlayStation 4. That's right -- if you can't bear to be away from your computer, you can now build your dream tower right on your console.
It has a pretty impressive list of licensed products with which to construct computers. You can either build freely with all parts unlocked, or go through a career mode, building up a PC repair and construction company. It's a pretty niche game, but for £14.99, it's certainly a lot cheaper than forking out for the real deal.
PC Building Simulator is out today on PS4. Will you be piecing together PCs on your console? Overclock the comments section below.

Truly a sign of the End Times.
PS4 building simulator would be better for PS4 users.
"Plug everything in wherever you can because it won't fit anywhere else, then find the invisible power button on your PS4 Pro... Wrong, that was the eject button. Now try all the HDMI inputs on your TV. The End"
😂 Amazing.
I could see how this could maybe be useful in terms of putting your own spec machine together and testing things out.
As a console game however..
Are there trophies?
@roe
Yup trophies

Those trophies are quite a challenge as they are in real life like getting a high 3d mark score, getting a stable overclock etc which can be a task if you want to get your system to a point you are after
I assume there's a mode where you think "this is too complicated, I'll get a console instead"?
@Rhaoulos 'Plug everything in wherever you can because it won't fit anywhere else'
That's generally my approach to building a PC.
So if I build a beast of a PC in this game I presume I can then run all my PS4 games through it at 8k 120hz?
@Hengist That's the idea. It is mostly made so most people can build a PC. Although I have seen someone ruin a 300€ CPU in the past because he tried to force it in the socket when it was rotated 90 degrees.
@Mergatro1d Yes, you can also download more RAM to your PS4.
@Rhaoulos about time!
I just play this in real life a couple of days ago lol. Bought nzxt h700 case, razer blackwidow elite keyboard, asus mz27aq 2K monitor, and nvidia msi geforce 1660 ti twin frozr 7. Finally I can play gears of war 4 (and hopefully gears 5 and others microsoft exclusive games on gamepass pc) with 2K & 60 fps on my pc
It would make more since to have a PS4 exclusive builder on PC lol.
Is there BSOD’s?
