Minecraft cross-platform play requires Xbox Live register on all taking part platforms, explaining the shortage of PS4 help.
During their E3 presentation, Microsoft introduced the unification of Minecraft gamers by means of cross-platform play. Players on all variations of the sport will have the ability to work together with each other. All apart from these on PS4.
Sony refused to get on board, and now it appears somewhat clearer as to why they could have made that call.
In an interview with Pressfire.no – roughly translated on NeoGAF – Mojang CEO Jonas Märtensson defined that they’re “tying everything together with Xbox Live. So you log in with Xbox Live.”
That goes for the Switch too.
“Yes, [even on the Switch]. That’s pretty unique as well! But everyone that’s in on this, all the platform holders, have been pretty pragmatic and understanding of that what we’re trying to do is create a good experience for the players. We needed a good system to connect everyone, and Xbox Live is a good system.”
So thriller solved on that one, however there’s nonetheless the difficulty of Rocket League and why Sony’s Jim Ryan hasn’t actually supplied a satisfying reply to the query as to why they’re not taking part.
