Psyonix Hints at PS4 Cross-Platform Play Coming to Rocket League

Psyonix’s CEO has taken to Reddit to make a statement to its Rocket League fans about cross-network play and its intentions on bringing the feature to PS4 players.

very good news. Glad to see the dominoes falling.

[darthv72]

yes, I welcome more cross platform competition.

[Kribwalker]

Awesome news. Now i just need cross-platform progression, then i’ll buy it for my switch so i can carry my progress with me

[Neonridr]

was it made apparent if that works with Fortnite yet? I am still unsure if it supports the progression and purchases across accounts. But this would be awesome for Rocket League if it worked too.

[Obscure_Observer]

Awesome news! Some people though it was about the money Sony can make out fortnite when Shawn Layden clearly said that crossplay between consoles is much more than just one game!

This is about the GAMERS!

Great Job, Sony!

[lxeasy]

Yeah I couldn't agree more, this has always been about what we the gamers want. I'm glad Sony is finally listening and giving us cross play.

[CarlDechance]

lol....Laydon said the implications were greater than just one game, but it was Fortnite he was asked about. At least you are not still saying bullshit like this is because of Phil Spencer and idiotic crap like Epic never said anything about cross play.

@CarlDechance

Whatever you said dude, and yes, it was Phil Spencer that pushed console crossplay foward! Deal it!

Plus, Sony will allow crossplay for all gamers and haters will just the another big L as this one with Rocket League.

For the gamers! ;)

[CarlDechance]

"Whatever you said dude"

See......that's the part you need to work on. Getting what was said right. I don't know why you think you've made competent points when you're screaming Epic never said a word when they did. You are so desperate to frame this as a victory for Phil Spencer. That is what is really important here, isn't it. Like so many have said, and you are proving again and again, this is about handing out the "big L".....it was never about cross play. Good....maybe you can move on to another fake issue that you can pretend Phil Spencer solves. lol

"I don't know why you think you've made competent points when you're screaming Epic never said a word when they did."

Dude, show me the link where Epic had made public statements against Sony´s stance against crossplay between consoles or GTFO!

"You are so desperate to frame this as a victory for Phil Spencer."

It´s not my fault if you can´t deal with FACTS! Grow up! I also said in my previous posts that Sony finally joining crossplay between consoles was a victory for REAL GAMERS! PS4, Switch, Xbox One gamers alongside with the media, publishers and developers alike! Haters and naysayers are the ones who took the big L! FACT!

"it was never about cross play."

Read my previous comments regarding crossplay between consoles before spell such nonsense! But i´m not a hypocrite and i´m not gonna lie to you!

I love to see haters cringe everytime that good news regarding crossplay pops up! Hypocrites said that they don´t care about crossplay! Heck, they even said that they don´t care about multiplayer fcs! And here they are full on damage control acting like Sony did it for the money when the real truth is that Sony just couldn´t handle such pressure and gave up!

Rocket League is just another exemple that Sony didn´t allowed crossplay because of Fortnite (Still on BETA) at all!

Stop with your made up excuses for what is clearly a gamers victory! You´ll only embarrace yourself even more as crossplay between consoles evolves!

Cheers!

LOL.....I've already posted the quotes from Tim Sweeney. You are clueless. I don't care about your other ramblings. It is just Xbox fanboy bullshit you are spewing.

" That traditional divide between PlayStation and Xbox owners doesn’t need to be there"
"I think it’s in everyone’s interest to support interoperability,"
www.pcgamer.com/i-t...

"For Sony and Microsoft to support their customers well they have to be open to all their customer's friends - their real world friends - otherwise they're breaking up real-world social groups. Like kids in school have their friends, and do you expect this platform schism to divide them into two separate groups that can't play together? No. It's got to come together now.
"That one remaining barrier will inevitably come down."

"All platforms should embrace cross-play; it benefits everyone."

Seriously. I'm not pointing these facts out to you again. Don't ask. Not my problem that you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about.

[Obscure_Observer]

@CarlDechance

Please

Look at all these sugarcoated comments from Epic and how all of them are direct at Microsoft as well. Like i said; EPIC never took a HARD stance AGAINST Sony policies regarding crossplay.

They only made general comments on how it (Crossplay) benefits all gamers. Nothing more, nothing less. This is no pressure! Period!

You just proved my point.

We´re done here.

[CarlDechance]

Wow....you are in such denial. Sweeney's comments are DIRECTLY at odds with Sony's stance on cross play. You are just lying to yourself. I think you must be the ultimate Xbox fanboy. I'm expecting to see you in the next Dangonronpa.

[lxeasy]

Yes good news indeed! Glad to see more games are going to have cross play!

[AizenSosuke]

Excellent news

[Shikoku]

Its had it from the moment launched on PS4.

[Neonridr]

not with consoles genius. Which is clearly what this is all about. Even the Psyonix developers were saying how much they wanted this feature for their game. Sony wouldn't allow it before, now they are changing their minds.

[Shikoku]

Blah blah blah stop acting like it didnt some how already have cross play.

[Neonridr]

@Shikoku - blah blah blah, start showing some reading comprehension. The article is focused on console cross play. Something the PS4 did NOT have. XB1 and Switch had it, PS4 did not.

[Kribwalker]

it never had cross console play. The switch and xbox have it.

[Shikoku]

Oh my god!!! I never had cross console play so therefore it never had it!!!! Jesus it had cross play from day one on PS4 period.

[Kribwalker]

but the discussion here is about it getting cross console play, which it never had

[lxeasy]

@shikoku... We understand you don't like admitting sony was wrong on not having cross console play but nows that they just became open to it. thats what this is about. Us gamers spoke up and they listened. :D
