Summary
Mouthwashingwas one of 2024’s off-the-radar hits, having a big enough impact to break its way intoour site’s top ten games of the year. However, itsPC-only release meant it wasn’t available to console gamers. That changes later this year as Wrong Organ has not only confirmed Mouthwashing is coming to all major platforms, but it will also be getting a physical release onPS5andNintendo Switch.
Mouthwashing’s publisher Critical Reflexconfirmed the good news, sharing that its horror game will be available on PS5 and Switch soon, adding that a digital release onXbox Series X|Sis also still planned.

Mouthwashing Is Coming To Consoles Later This Year
With A Physical Option For PS5 And Switch
If you’re unfamiliar with Mouthwashing, it’s a short horror game released in 2024 that will almost certainly have a profound impact on you despite only needing a few hours to play through it from start to finish. It’s also difficult to talk about without spoiling its story, which is what makes it so great, so if you plan on playing it on console and want to go into it knowing as little as possible, stop reading here.
You’re a crew member on a freighter floating through space, all of you almost certainly destined to die with no hope of rescue. With six months of power, and far less food, the crew slowly descends into madness and you have to navigate the unfathomable situation at hand. It’s pretty heavy, but a fantastic story told in a short amount of time. Its length likely means this will be pretty cheap when it does arrive on consoles -it’s currently $12.99 on Steam.
Whether you’ve already played Mouthwashing and you’re excited to play it again on consoles, or you’re eagerly waiting to play it for the first time when it finally arrives on more platforms, we’vehandpicked some other games to play with a similar vibein the meantime.
