Platform notesMoza lists the platform as PC. Moza's FAQ says a Moza base cannot run on Xbox by itself, but the Xbox-licensed ESX wheel can be used with a Moza base on Xbox; the ESX page recommends the R3 bundle or future officially supported bases for full console compatibility. Moza states its products do not currently support PS4 or PS5. Some retailers (Mwave, Simufy) list Xbox support when paired with the ESX wheel.
