Windows, macOS, Linux, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Not Nintendo Switch. Mods work everywhere through the in-game mod hub.
Last verified: September 20, 2026
Transport Fever 3 ships on five platforms. The interesting part is not the list itself but the mod hub, which runs on all of them and removes the usual split between PC and console mod support.
Platform breakdown

Why the mod hub matters on console
On most simulation games, console players get a smaller or nonexistent mod selection. Urban Games built its own hub partly to avoid that. In a hands-on report, one producer said the aim was that nobody feels like a second-class citizen because they play on a console.
Community mod sites are still allowed to host files. The hub is simply where the game looks by default, and it is also where curated mods appear.
Controller support
The Steam listing reports full controller support, including DualSense and DualShock. That is a change in emphasis for the series and lines up with the console release.
Mac and Linux
Both are supported natively and sold through Steam. That matters more than usual here: the game runs on Urban Games' own engine, so there is no third-party porting layer to wait for. What is not published is which Apple Silicon chips are officially supported, or how an M-series Mac compares to the GTX 1060 floor on the PC side.
If you play on a Mac and want a specific answer before buying, the honest position is: support is confirmed, performance is not benchmarked. The system requirements page tracks what is published and what is still missing.

PS4, Xbox One and older consoles
Neither is announced. The console release covers PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, which is consistent with the simulation's load: every resident, vehicle and pedestrian is calculated individually, and that is exactly the part older consoles struggle with.
What is not confirmed
Steam Deck compatibility is not rated. The Linux build helps, but Valve has issued no Deck rating and Urban Games has not commented.
