Rocket League developer Psyonix claim, in an interview with Polygon, that they could implement cross-platform play to the game within an hour. I'm going to stop right here and congratulate the team at Psyonix and Microsoft for allowing cross network play for Rocket League, this is a huge achievement on its own and will only spur the Rocket League community and gamers alike.
Dunham appears to remain optimistic about Sony's position on cross-play, which makes sense considering PS4 to Steam play is something that works in Rocket League.
Jim Ryan: Yeah. We've got to be mindful of our responsibility to our install base. The big question now is "how will Rocket League run?"
Sony is firmly refusing to allow cross-platform multiplayer for now, but Psyonix is ready to move should the time come. "All we need is a green light from Sony". We have a contract with the people who go online with us, that we look after them and they are within the PlayStation-curated universe. This was speculated after fans noticed that when they were signing up for the game, the only option available was the Xbox One, PC and Playstation 4. While Microsoft seems to be happy being all in on working with Nintendo, Sony remains reluctant.
Ward stuns Kovalev in eighth to defend titles
Kovalev complained after the fight that the referee made the wrong choice to step in, but Ward dismissed the growing criticism. Judges Glen Feldman and Dave Moretti had Ward ahead 67-66 while Steve Weisfeld had Kovalev ahead 68-65 as did this writer.
So we know that Skyrim is coming to the Switch and features exclusive content on the Nintendo platform, but how about Bethesda delivers something for those that don't like the fantasy worlds of The Elder Scrolls series? "Frankly, through the parental controls on Xbox Live and everything we've done, we've shown that's very important to us as a platform", he continued.
The developers have not given us any confirmation about the platforms that the game will be released on. Most of the development for cross-platform play is presumably down to the developer, rather than Sony to enable a network to support it. The other one is security. He also said that Sony has to consider them first.
Explaining his comments to TechRadar, he added: "The console is fixed hardware, so we know exactly what GPU, CPU and memory is in that box. That's all we need to do".
As I was quickly reminded of just how bad I am at Rocket League, we talked more about what brought Rocket League to Nintendo in the first place. Both companies thrive on a community that loves and support their games, jokes and all.
