Rocket League brings together all gamers

Rocket League is now fully cross-platform compatible. Psyonix has announced that their arena multiplayer phenomenon is now part of the PlayStation Cross-Play Beta, meaning gamers on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC versions can play together in random match-ups. According to the studio post, a cross-platform party system is coming soon, so pals on different systems can stay together.
Rocket League’s full cross-platform play has been a long time coming. Psyonix thanks their fans and their “generous partners” for making this happen, but Sony resisted cross-platform play since it was first floated as a possibility. It was the additional pressure from Epic’s gargantuan Fortnite audience that likely supplied the main push for Sony to open PlayStation’s servers.
Dozens of Rocket League Sony drivers that don’t hold their platform against the other, lesser, hardware versions will now be able to team up and create a beautiful world of cross-platform gaming.
