Converting an indie PC game to consoles can be challenging, especially for a small team of five developers. Optimization, controller support, and platform-specific requirements all add to the workload.

Moreover, the high number of players on Steam is straining Content Warning’s servers, which might add more challenges for a console launch for now.

Despite these challenges, there is still potential for a future console release. Landfall Games successfully brought their popular title TABS (Totally Accurate Battleground Simulator) from PC to consoles, showing their capability and willingness to expand to other platforms.
