Crossplay har på allvar blivit hett senaste tiden och i exempelvis Minecraft och Rocket League ska det gå att fritt spela mellan PC, Switch och Xbox One. Som synes saknas ett format dock, Playstation 4. Microsoft har tidigare sagt att de förhandlar med Sony om saken, men Xbox-chefen Phil Spencer tycks ha tappat lite förhoppning. Såhär säger han till Gamespot:
"We talk to Sony all the time. With Minecraft on Playstation, we have to be one of the biggest games on their platform in terms of sales and gameplay. Same with Nintendo. The relationship with Nintendo on this front has been strong. They've been great supporters and we continue to collaborate with them. But I think Sony's view is different. They should talk about what their view is..."
Spencer fortsätter med att säga att han inte riktigt förstår Sonys motiv och att han ändå inte helt gett upp ännu:
"I have a real struggle making comments about their motivation or timelines. I know there is a certain view that says if my friends have this console, they can't play with people who buy another console. That's a reason they go buy my console. That reason is not going to go away. So we're putting Minecraft out there as one of the biggest games on any platform and allowing people to play together regardless of what device they bought. I don't think everybody is taking that same approach to the ecosystem. So I'm never going to call anything a lost cause but I think some of the fundamental reasons and certain scenarios, they're not really going away. So I don't know what would change."
Vad tycker du om Sonys taktik?
