Tavern Manager Simulator is set to arrive on PlayStation 5 on February 5, bringing its relaxed medieval management gameplay to Sony’s current-generation console. The game is already available on PC and Xbox consoles, where it has earned strong player reception.
Developed by independent Georgian studio One More Time, Tavern Manager Simulator first launched on PC in 2024. The console versions, including PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S, were prepared and published by Ultimate Games S.A. On Steam, the title currently holds a 91% positive user rating based on more than 3,700 reviews.
In Tavern Manager Simulator, players take on the role of a tavern keeper in a medieval fantasy world. The game begins with a rundown shack that must be restored and gradually expanded into a thriving tavern. Progression centers on rebuilding, upgrading, and managing every aspect of the establishment.
Gameplay focuses on tavern development and day-to-day operations, including interior design, furnishing placement, resource management, customer service, and cooking. Players are responsible for maintaining cleanliness, stocking supplies, and investing in upgrades to improve both efficiency and reputation. A range of interactive mini-games—such as pouring beer, chopping ingredients, and cooking meals in a cauldron—adds hands-on elements to the management systems.
Additional mechanics include a day-and-night cycle, a reputation system that reflects player performance, and seasonal events that influence gameplay. The overall experience is designed to be accessible and relaxing, with an emphasis on steady progression rather than high-pressure challenges.
The PlayStation 5 version follows the game’s recent console expansion, which saw it launch on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S earlier in January. The PS5 release will offer the same core experience that PC and Xbox players have praised, adapted for console play.
Tavern Manager Simulator launches on PlayStation 5 on February 5, 2026. The game is available digitally via the PlayStation Store, with an official PS5 launch trailer now live.
