ID@Xbox European head Agostino Simonetta says Microsoft is ready for cross-platform play.

“Absolutely, we’re ready,” Simonetta said to Eurogamer at EGX Rezzed recently.

“Any title that wants to update their game to include cross-network play, any title that wants to launch soon and take advantage of that, we are ready.”

Developer Psyonix says Rocket League is primed and ready to be a cross-platform title across Windows PC, Xbox One and PS4. While Microsoft seems ready to go, Sony seems a little more reluctant.

We’ll have more on cross-platform play as it becomes available.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
