It looks like Sony has struck a deal with Red Thread Games to bring Dreamfall Chapters exclusively to the PS4. This means the Xbox One and Wii U will not be getting the game anytime soon, or at all. The title is still coming to the PC, Mac, and Linux.

My Personal Opinion: Dreamfall Chapters originally was coming to the Wii U, then Sony seems to strike a deal to get it as an console exclusive. Game is still hitting PC, Linux and Mac though. Similar to Tomb Raider though not really, it would seem a lot of developers feel the name to screw over the original audience it was being developed for, Dreamfall Chapters being for PC and Wii U owners and Tomb Raider being for PC, PS4 and Xbox One owners. Crystal Dynamics has really no excuse to put Tomb Raider exclusively on Xbox One, low install base, sold less on Xbox 360 last generation, etc. While the Dreamfall Chapters deal is sort of more justified, their independent, less resources to develop for both platforms, etc. Not excusing either one but one is more of "we can't develop this game on this platform because of limited resources", and the other being "we can develop if we wanted to but we got paid so screw you." Either way i can't wait for Dreamfall Chapters to hit PS4, seems like a very interesting game to try out.
