| Platform | Status | Detail | Tier 1 source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Steam (Windows / macOS) | Full Controller Support | Steam appdetails API returns controller_support = "full"; the store page shows the "Full controller support" badge, "Gamepad Recommended", and Xbox / PlayStation (DualShock) controller tags. | https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails?appids=2209900 (cross-checked against https://store.steampowered.com/app/2209900/Moonlight_Peaks/) |
| Nintendo Switch | Native (Joy-Con / Pro Controller) | Switch software is natively playable with Joy-Con and Pro Controller across TV, Tabletop, and Handheld modes; the eShop expresses this via Supported Play Modes rather than a Steam-style badge. | https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/moonlight-peaks-switch/ |
| Nintendo Switch 2 Edition | Native (Joy-Con / Pro Controller) | Switch 2 Edition runs at higher resolution with improved frame rates; controller input is native Joy-Con / Pro Controller as on all Switch software. | https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/moonlight-peaks-nintendo-switch-2-edition-switch-2/ |
| Google Play (Android) | TBD pre-launch | Google Play is a confirmed launch platform per the official site; no controller detail is listed pre-launch. | https://www.moonlightpeaks.com/ |
| PlayStation / Xbox | Not available | Moonlight Peaks is not on PlayStation or Xbox — the official site lists only Steam, Switch, Switch 2, and Google Play. The Steam page's Xbox / PlayStation controller tags refer to PC input, not console editions. | https://www.moonlightpeaks.com/ |
