Cross platform gaming is more popular now than it was a couple of years ago. Technically it can be done but the problems usually arise elsewhere. consoles don't working with PC but Xbox and PS aren't crazy about working together. Depending on the game you want to maintain some competitive balance. I hope Destiny 2 is cross platform but I doubt they will let PvP be cross platform, maybe just PvE.

I feel like hell will freeze over before Sony and Microsoft allow cross platforming.

Regardless, sometime last year, before Rocket League dropped, I remember Microsoft and CD Projekt Red asking Sony to allow cross platforming because of CDPR's Gwent game and Sony had a promising, but very vague response:

quote:

“PlayStation has been supporting cross-platform play between PC on several software titles starting with Final Fantasy 11 on PS2 and PC back in 2002. We would be happy to have the conversation with any publishers or developers who are interested in cross-platform play.”


I mean, I feel like it's gotta happen eventually, no matter what.

EDIT: I also doubt Destiny 2 would be cross platform, primarily if Bungie/Activision do exclusives with Sony or Microsoft, which they likely will.
