Publisher Dear Villagers has announced a PS5 release date for Star Overdrive, its fast-paced sci-fi action game initially released as a Switch exclusive.

It's only been out on Nintendo's console for a week, but the game is now pegged for 19th June, 2025 on other systems, including PS5.

We've embedded the Switch launch trailer above to give you an idea of what to expect.

Set on a colourful alien world, the game has you getting around on a speedy hoverboard, pulling off tricks and gliding across various biomes. When things slow down, there's physics-based combat to engage with using a number of abilities and tools at your disposal.

The game was awarded a respectable 7/10 over on Nintendo Life, praising the hoverboard traversal, intriguing narrative, and nice presentation.

No footage of the game in action on PS5 has been released, but hopefully it improves upon the Switch version in terms of technical performance.

It looks like it could be pretty good fun, especially if you miss the SSX days. Will you be playing Star Overdrive on PS5? Tell us in the comments section below.
