TRC, handled
Sony checks every detail before launch. So do we, first.
PlayStation certification tests far more than whether the game runs. This is the kind of list we work through so your submission passes, ideally the first time.
- Trophy set and unlock flow
- Save data and cloud saves
- Rest mode, suspend and resume
- User accounts and sign-in
- Controller disconnect handling
- DualSense haptics and adaptive triggers
- PS5 Pro enhanced mode
- Age rating and store metadata

UX/UI on Consoles: Why a Good Interface Is More Than Just a Port
Bringing a game from PC to consoles isn't just about remapping controls. A menu that works with a mouse can fall apart on a couch, ten feet from a TV, navigated with a thumbstick - and platform holders will reject a submission over it.

More consoles
Ship on every console at once.
Most games ship to several consoles together. The same team, the same codebase and one fixed price.
What we need to estimate your PlayStation port
You don’t need a full brief. Even a rough idea of your game and your launch window is enough to get started.
We’ll review your request and share a scoped estimate within 3 business days.
- Current engine, version, and platform the game runs on today
- PS5 only, or PS5 together with other consoles
- Build size, performance targets, and technical constraints
- Access to source code and third-party dependencies
- Multiplayer, save data, or trophies you already have elsewhere
- Timeline, launch window and certification deadlines
Do you port to PS5 and PS5 Pro?
Yes. We port to PlayStation 5 and tune for PS5 Pro, including an enhanced mode that makes use of the extra performance.
Do you support DualSense features?
Yes. We implement DualSense haptic feedback and adaptive triggers where they add to the game, along with correct button prompts and controller handling.
What is TRC and do you handle it?
TRC is Sony’s technical requirements checklist, the rules a PlayStation game must meet to pass certification. We build to it from the start, manage submission, and if a build fails we fix and resubmit it at no extra cost.
How long does a PlayStation port take?
Most console ports take 3 to 6 months from kickoff to release, including 2 to 4 weeks of certification. You get an exact timeline in your free estimate within 3 business days.
How much does a PlayStation port cost?
With Lynci, our fixed-price porting model, a port is priced in fixed tiers for indie, premium indie and AA games, covering PlayStation 5 together with Xbox Series X|S, WinGDK and Nintendo Switch 1 and 2. The price is confirmed after a free technical review and billed per milestone - no hourly surprises.
