When is cross-platform play coming?
Despite his revealing interview, McCoy did not reveal an official date for when cross-platform play can be expected.
We can deduce, however, that seeing as Respawn are already talking about cross-platform play and the game has only been out for such a small amount of time, that it won’t be too far away. It's possible that Respawn are waiting on Sony to allow this to happen, as they are usually the last platform to make themselves available for cross-platform play. This may change however, as Sony as recently let both Fortnite and Rocket League players on their console link up with those on Xbox One.
Respawn said it "plans to allow players to play with their friends on other platforms", but, there's a catch. Although cross-platform play is set to come, cross-progression is not. Cross-progression will apparently "never be possible due to the way systems were set up early on."
