When will cross play with playstation and pc come out?

[BUDDHA68NM]

i have this game and all dlc on pc and recently came out for ps plus so alot of my friends who dont have a pc can play i have playstation as well but dont want to be forced to buy all my dlc stuff again just to play with them all the way through the game dont get me wrong the games great i just dont have the funds to do that. and im hoping for cross play with all platforms in order to get the game more people would be a amazing thing more people could play with friends without worrying about the platform they play on. can you give me info on if you have it in the works or if it will not happen that way i know what to expect in the future

Hey! Crossplay is not something we're currently working on :)

@BUDDHA68NM, to give some context, Carni is GZ's most recent community manager. Typically whenever the rest of the devs plan to release updates, Carni relays this info to the public via livestreams for the game. I would encourage you to watch one or two (usually YouTuber Tenebris Infinite also discusses anything of interest within a particular livestream).

Anyway, the devs currently do not have crossplay in the works for GZ. There's quite a few reasons why, but the biggest one I can think of right now is that it's not really up to the devs to decide whether crossplay should be implemented. In a sense, the big-tech companies may be to blame:

Now, if the devs were to (for some reason) make a flawless sequel to GZ and they had the money and permission from the big-tech companies to do crossplay, I would desperately advocate for it.

Thanks for the link. So no crossplay at all atm.

I don't think this will ever happen. From what I understand from those that have played console and PC, the games are not exactly the same.

Seeing as there are so many multiplayer issues just on Steam, adding crossplay would probably create more problems! 🙃

I dont even think that this game is crossplay with the xbox version, or even the xbox app version on PC. however, I dont think that even if they do offer crossplay that it will be with ps4 or ps5. You can thank sony for that, not the game devs. they have a long standing history of not wanting games to be crossplay.

Because both of them run on the same network, Steam and Playstation are totally different network.

So, console and pc can play together?

What they should have said was Playstation is specifically excluded, but Xbox and pc can play together...you see, that's nuance.

Steam and Playstation are still different network.

Yes, but you didn't say that initially.

You simply stated pc and console cannot play together, which was incorrect.
