All The Consoles Mod Definitive Edition! 2026 UPDATE!

The original All The Consoles mod! Now bigger, better, and fully unified!

The most comprehensive hardware and industry expansion for Game Dev Tycoon. A fully unified, standalone experience.

• 100% Real World Names: No more "Ninvento" or "Govodore". Every company and console is now its real life counterpart.
• Ultra-Accurate History: Release dates, retire dates, and unit sales painstakingly verified. Version 2.1.0 fully recalibrated in game dates to real world dates to the most accurate dates by far on the workshop.
• Balanced Gameplay: All consoles researched for excellent genre and audiance wieghts.
• Dynamic Hardware Upgrades: PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, PS4, 3DS, PSP, Switch, Thumby, Nokia N-Gage, Lenovo Legion, ROG Ally and many more auto-upgrade to newer models (Slim, Pro, revisions) over time.
• Custom Consoles 2.0: Your custom built consoles show up in the market share pie charts! All 11 design variants visible with TAG, plus extra features. More comming in the future.
• PC Done Right: PC now releases in Year 8 when Windows 95 launches, because there was no real "PC" before that, the early years gives several computers to the early game before they died out.
• Every Single Platform now has its own custom release and retire notification, all the way up to Year 30!

• The 1983 Video Game Crash: A massive, custom-built historical event with unique UI. Can your studio survive?
• The App Store Crash: An event chain about the rise of mobile gaming. Will it cripple handhelds, or will you choose to ride the smartphone wave yourself?
• The RAM Shortage: A full late-game chain mirroring today’s real-world RAM crisis.
• Y2K + Happy New Year 2000 chains to ring in the millennium.
• China Bans Video Games (2000) & Unban (2015).
• Arcade Deal, Tavern Keeper, E3 Stunt multistep storylines.
• Overhyped Flops, 100 Bug Event, Copyright Trouble add new layers of risk to every release.

Custom company milestones (Commodore bankruptcy, NEC quits consoles, Bandai merger) also script through the decades.

• Platform Seller: Score 9+ on a game and you’ll actually boost that platform’s market share! Stacks up to +20% per platform, with niche platforms getting bigger multipliers so the effect really shows. Look for the ★ indicator in the Platform and Console Market Share screens.
• Untapped Platforms: The fewer games that have ever been made on a platform (by you and rivals combined), the bigger the score bonus when you finally make one. Niche platforms also pay out more fans and money at release, with a "Cult Classic" notification on a 7+ score.
• Remakes & Remasters Overhauled: Now actually worth making! Modernization boosts your score when remaking an old low-tech game on modern hardware, and Nostalgia rewards extra fans and money when the original was old and highly rated. Score bonuses now affect real sales, not just the displayed number.
• MMO Rebalance: Profitable for longer so you actually have time to build expansions. Expansion packs are faster to develop (AAA uses Large duration, Large uses Medium).
• 45 Year Real Time Mode to play through almost the entire history of gaming.
• Christmas Release Boost for holiday launches (rebalanced so it no longer revives nearly-dead games).
• Game & Contract Growth: Contracts and making games now grant Tech, Design, Research, and Speed points.
• Platform XP Bonus: Devving on a new platform grants bonus XP and more research points.
• Rename Company: Rebrand your studio (and change the sign font!) for a small fee.
• 80k Starting Money (up from 70k).

• Research Tracks: Weekly Research Point boost unlockable in the first office, plus an advanced R&D project for +2/week, plus a buffed Esports Partnership track that now generates 50-100 fans per week while a game is on the market.
• Automated QA Pipeline: A late-game R&D research that reduces the amount of bugs your games produce.
• Smarter Repetition Penalties: Reusing the same topic and genre back-to-back hits harder now, in both research points and XP. Sequels also grant fewer research points since you’ve already learned what works.
• 20 New Engine Features: One new feature per level, from High Score Table and Cheat Codes to Procedural Generation and Dynamic Storytelling AI.
• 6 New Topics: Dinosaurs, Deep Sea, Theme Park, Mining, Toys, Factory.

• Active From Day One: All rivals exist at the start instead of slowly appearing.
• Realistic Competition: Rivals pay rent, pay G3/E3 fees, and earn based on their game combos. They’re now better balanced and won’t go bankrupt as easily.
• Industrial Espionage: Steal Game Topics directly from your rivals.
• Leaderboard & Stats tracking you vs. every rival with accurate G3 placements.
• Pirate Mode Impact: Pirates affect rival earnings too.
• Trends last longer in the late game and now affect what rivals are making.

Pirate Mode Light is now the default to get more of the vanilla events that so few get to see. Much fewer poeple pirate your games and the research for DRM is much cheeper.

• [NEW] Mod Compatibility Checker: Warns you if any of your enabled mods are broken, incompatible with each other, or even harmful to your system. Covers over 440 of the ~1000 mods out there.
• Dedicated Settings Page: Dark Mode (no TAG required), Dark Background, Slider Percentages during dev, clear mod status indicators for TAG users.
• Send All on Vacation with one button.
• Instant Typewriter, Reviews & Conventions, dark mode in vanilla.
• Revamped Mod Guide screen for a much cleaner overview of everything the mod adds.
• Nudge Employees back to work when they’re slacking off.

19 Achievements to hunt, with hidden secrets to discover!

Take a look at some of the events and UI additions in action:

• Highly Recommended: The TAG Mod! My mod detects TAG and dynamically matches its visuals/UI.
• ✅ Compatible with: UI overhauls, custom topics, custom genres, event mods.
• ⚠️ Not Compatible with: Economy rebalance mods that modify vanilla console stats. The real problem with Compatibility is that so many mods are very outdated with often many errors.

Translating decades of real world sales into in-game market shares was a massive undertaking.

Did I need to spend over 200 hours building spreadsheets? Probably not.
Did I do it anyway? Absolutely… Now I can finally sleep! Zzzz
