The High on Life PS5 and PS4 ports are out right now

Buying one version entitles players to the other. These ports don’t seem to have any new features or content, though. Regardless, studio director Mike Fridley thanked PlayStation owners for their patience.

“The fans have spoken. And spoken. And spoken,” said Fridley. “We’ve been thrilled with High On Life’s reception since it launched in December. Our PlayStation fans have been slightly less thrilled, which is why we’re so excited to share that it’s coming their way very soon. Like now soon! Thank you for your patience!”

This port seemed inevitable, as it was found on a patch update database earlier in the week. Trophy lists for the game were also uploaded to sites like Exophase and PSNProfiles the following day.

Squanch also talked a little about High on Knife, the game’s first expansion, and said it will come to all systems at the same time, meaning PlayStation players won’t have to wait. IGN got an extended look at the DLC and even interviewed two members from Squanch who talked about the upgrades for Knifey, new abilities, and the gun voiced by Sarah Sherman from Saturday Night Live that will all be in DLC.

Squanch also released a trailer for the new port that doesn’t feature Justin Roiland’s name or voice in any way (and it even lists 26 other voice actors). This isn’t too unexpected since news broke that Roiland, who is most known for co-creating Rick and Morty and voicing the titular characters, was arrested and charged with felony domestic battery and false imprisonment. This spurred other reports to come out that alleged he preyed on some minors, harassed his female colleagues, and was generally not an attentive worker. The criminal charges were later dismissed, but this was well after Adult Swim and Squanch had severed ties with Roiland. Roiland wasn’t featured in the DLC’s trailer, either.

High on Life PS5 and PS4 trophy lists

The High on Life trophy lists for the PS5 and PS4 versions are identical. In fact, according to the lists that have appeared on Exophase, the only difference between the new trophy lists and the Xbox achievement lists is the addition of a Platinum trophy.

The vast majority of the trophy list are story-related trophies for obtaining weapons and defeating specific enemies. There are also collectibles to find and some missable side quests and optional tasks. The full list of 33 PS5 and PS4 trophies is below for those who don’t care about spoilers:

The appearance of the trophy lists confirms the rumor that started yesterday when a PS4 version of the game was discovered in a game update database. At the moment, High on Life is only available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. A horror-themed expansion for the game called High on Knife is also in the works.

High on Life is likely coming to PlayStation

As noted by Knoebelbroet, a listing for High on Life showed up on the game update database Orbis Patches. It shows that the shooter is on patch 1.03 and around 9.8GB total. This listing was only created on July 17. There is currently no entry for a PS5 port, but it’s possible that it may show up eventually since not many titles of this stature only ship on PS4. It was natively on Xbox One, as well as Xbox Series X|S, after all.

There’s been no official confirmation of a possible port. However, it seems likely that it’ll be announced at Comic-Con. High on Life is one of the games scheduled to be at the show in some capacity. It also has a horror-themed expansion on the way called High on Knife, but not much is known about it. It would make sense for the DLC to come out alongside or just after a PlayStation port.

High on Life was a little divisive when it launched. The quirky first-person shooter hit an average score of 70 on OpenCritic, and while some loved its irreverent humor, others found it incredibly grating.

The game got caught in the crossfire over the controversy surrounding Squanch Games co-founder Justin Roiland, who is most known for co-creating Rick and Morty and voicing the titular characters. Shortly after High on Life’s release, it came out that Roiland had been arrested and charged with felony domestic battery and false imprisonment. This spurred other reports to come out that alleged he preyed on some minors, harassed his female colleagues, and was generally not an attentive worker. The criminal charges were later dismissed, but this was well after Adult Swim and Squanch had severed ties with Roiland.

While Squanch has not said much after his departure, the teaser trailer for the High on Knife DLC didn’t include Kenny, the gun that Roiland voiced. It’s unclear (but still very possible) that he’s still in the main game, though.
