Is that just for 4.0? Since the features page[1] lists a number of deploy targets for 3.X:

* Export to desktop platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux, UWP, and BSD.

* Export to mobile platforms: iOS and Android.

* Consoles: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One via third-party providers

No, it looks like the same situation as 3.x: Godot is MIT licensed, and they don't believe it's possible for them as an open-source project to sign NDAs with console manufacturers and build in native compatibility without violating either the NDA or their open source principles.

They mention a few other platforms where 3rd parties have implemented commercial compatibility libraries, but Godot is much bigger in scale & scope, and nobody's done the legwork on that.
