On top of that, Phil Spencer sent out tweets saying that they’d be open to cross-platform play with PlayStation earlier this week. Although cross-platform play has been discussed by gamers previously, it never seemed like a viable option between the two warring companies.
According to a statement sent to GameSpot, while they aren’t open to 100% cross-platform play, PlayStation would consider partnering up. “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.”
Although that isn’t a solid yes, PlayStation and Xbox appear to be on the right track when it comes to cross-platform play.
