Popular space-engineering sim Kerbal Space Program is heading to PS4, says developer Squad.

"As the fanbase of our game has grown, we've received a constant influx of pokes and requests from people asking us to bring our game to PS4. With the power of current generation PS4 and the flexibility and ease of use of the Unity engine, bringing KSP over to the PS4 is simply a no brainer," Squad stated on its blog.

Flying Tiger Entertainment is slated to handle the port; accordingly, the PC and PS4 versions will remain separate, with no PC development time lost to the port.

No release date for the PS4 version has been set.
