Considering that Choo Choo Charles was primarily developed by a single person, we still don't know when exactly the game will come to home consoles but expect it to take some time. Porting a game from PC to console is a tremendously difficult task, even when you have an entire team behind you, so we are happy to wait until Two Star Games are ready.
That being said, Choo Choo Charles is quite a short game, so hopefully, we could see some kind of console port or at least a confirmed release date in Q2 of 2023
