Title: Full cross-play between platforms
Post by: Deathprize on September 26, 2018, 06:26:54 PM

Hey just seen news that Sony are allowing cross platform play with Xbox and Switch starting with Fortnite. I know this is early but will it be added to Spacelords in time as I guess this will be opened up to all games in the future?

Oh my goodness gracious! This is a fantastic implication for this game. If they allowed cross platform between Xbox and PS for Spacelords this means everyone can play with everyone and would increase the traffic on this game tremendously.

if they could make a third party account system like Paragon and Fortnite while somehow letting us choose which account from which system to use to play anywhere, i would be so happy cuz i'd like to play the PC version!

I think one of the milestones in the roadmap is being able to form parties with pc players, which hints at an integrated accounts system for the future.

Im pretty sure what they meant was between  PC-PS4-Switch / PC-Xbox-Switch. Xbox and PS4 will never have cross play between each other.

Well as of today ps4, Xbox and Switch can cross play on Fortnite. Other developers will want this as well as it increases player numbers on games with a split playerbase

Hey all,

As you might have read in several media, yes, we are working towards implementing full cross-platform games. This will be invaluable for us -having a really unified in-game community will help us having more and better games.
