Psyonix is a proponent for cross-platform play with its hit game Rocket League one of the earliest game this generation that touts it as a selling point. Though like most games, cross-play is limited on PS4 as the platform only allows its players to play with PC players but not Xbox One and Switch.
Now that Sony has a change of heart and policy, Rocket League should be supporting cross-play to all platforms soon.
Over on Reddit, a post from Psyonix CEO Dave Hagewood has issued an update about cross-play, the first since Sony’s announcement.
“I want everyone to understand just how much of a priority this is for us and always has been for our team,” he said. “There are still many factors, some of which take time, that means we have to have some patience.”
The cross-play feature is now live on Fortnite, but it is in beta. So there is still some work needed to be done before the button can be pushed.
Rocket League is built to support cross-platform play, though right now is limited to private matches. Cross-platform parties are still in the works that should let players on different platforms join a party and queue up together for casual or ranked play online.
