Game Porting
Bring your game to every platform.
We port your game to PlayStation, Xbox, Switch 2, mobile and VR - platform integration, optimization, QA and certification handled from start to release, at a fixed price and to the highest quality standards.
Trusted by studios and publishers
Every platform
Where should your game go next?
Pick a target to see how we port to it. Most games ship to several at once, from the same codebase and with the same team.
Same game, every screen
A port is more than a new build. It’s a new way to play.
Every platform has its own screen, controls, features and approval process. Switch between targets to see what changes when the same game moves.

Proven on every console
Every new platform is a new audience. Let’s reach it.
A PC-only game leaves console, handheld and mobile players behind. We bring it to them without rebuilding it internally or pulling your team off its roadmap, and every additional platform becomes another revenue stream.
- All platforms - old and new gen, Switch 2, mobile and VR
- High first-submission certification pass rate
- Any engine: Unity, Unreal, Godot, custom and proprietary
- Code your team fully owns
What a port includes
Everything between your PC build and a console store page.
One team covers the whole path, so nothing falls between an engineering vendor, a QA vendor and a certification consultant.
Platform integration
Platform SDKs, APIs and dependencies converted, with platform-specific code kept clean and maintainable.
Optimization
Frame rate, memory, loading and asset work against each platform's targets, including handheld modes.
Controls & UI
Controller support, button prompts and UI readable on a TV ten feet away or a handheld screen.
Saves & platform features
Save data, cloud saves, achievements and trophies, suspend and resume, done to each platform's rules.
In-house QA
Functionality, compliance and localisation testing (FQA, CQA, LQA) by our own team, on every target.
Certification
Submission handled end to end. A failed submission is fixed and resubmitted at no extra cost.
Post-launch support
Bug fixes, patches and platform updates covered for 3 months after release, at no extra cost.

Working with LYNXBYTE GAMES allowed us to successfully outsource key parts of the porting work for War Mongrels and 63 Days without compromising product quality. The collaboration reduced the workload on our internal development team while ensuring reliable technical support and efficient problem-solving throughout the projects.

What we need to estimate your port
You don’t need a full brief. Even a rough idea of your game and target platform 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
- Target platforms for the port - console, PC, mobile or VR
- Build size, performance targets, and technical constraints
- Access to source code and third-party dependencies
- Multiplayer, save data, or other platform-specific features
- Timeline and certification deadlines
How long does it take to port a game to console?
Most console ports take 3 to 6 months from kickoff to release: a short onboarding phase, then 8 to 20 weeks of active porting and optimisation, followed by 2 to 4 weeks of certification. Smaller Unity titles move faster; custom engines take longer. You get an exact timeline in your free estimate within 3 business days.
How much does game porting 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, Xbox Series X|S, WinGDK and Nintendo Switch 1 and 2. Portfolios and AA+/AAA projects are priced individually. The price is confirmed after a free technical review and billed per milestone - no hourly surprises.
Do you handle console certification, and what if it fails?
Yes. We manage submission end to end and coordinate with platform holders directly. If a build doesn't pass first-party certification, we fix and resubmit it at no extra cost until it's approved.
Which engines can you port?
Unity, Unreal Engine, Godot and custom or proprietary engines. We are also one of very few studios globally that ship Godot games on consoles.
Can you port my game to Nintendo Switch 2?
Yes. We've already taken a AAA title through Switch 2 certification, one of the few studios that has, and Switch 1 and Switch 2 are both part of our standard fixed-price porting.
What happens after the port launches?
Bug fixes, patches and platform updates are covered for 3 months after release, at no extra cost. It's written into every contract.
Do we keep ownership of the code?
Yes. Your team fully owns the code we deliver. Our internal Lynci framework speeds up repeatable technical work, while experienced engineers review every change and make the decisions.
We are AA or indie. Are we the wrong size?
No - most of our portfolio is AA and indie titles. It's who we build for.
