The publisher has announced that it will be bringing Pinball FX3 to Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC later this month, launching on September 26th. The game, considered the “biggest, most community-driven pinball game ever creatred features a host of brand new features and services that elevate competition and take the videogame pinball experience to new heights.”
The game will launch with the previously announced Universal Classics Pinball triple pack as an available purchase, which includes tables based upon Jaws, Back To the Future and E.T. The Extra Terrestrial. In addition, fans will be able to import a number of tables from Pinball FX2 and Zen Pinball 2 over to their new game.
The game will also feature “intense multiplayer match-ups and user generated tournaments, providing non-stop competitive play,” the company noted.
Pinball FX3 is a giant leap forward for pinball players and Zen Studios is excited to pioneer new ways to play pinball,” said Mel Kirk, Zen Studios Vice President of Publishing. “The roadmap of service-oriented features, new content, and future events is so exciting, we know the community is going to be pumped to learn what we have planned for the future of Pinball FX3!”
The full list of tables that can be ported over can be found on this page. It looks like a majority of them will be available to be ported over, though there are a few exceptions, mainly because Zen Studios no longer has the rights. But not to worry about the licensed Marvel and Star Wars tables – those will all be making the cut, so you can enjoy everything from Star Wars Pinball: Episode VI Return of the Jedi to the recently released Rogue One table.
In fact, the only real exclusions that will likely hurt the worst are the two South Park tables and the Plants vs. Zombies Pinball. Small price to pay for the rest being able to be ported over, though.
We’ll bring you further coverage for Pinball FX3 as news of new tables comes along!
