Overwatch cross-save functionality being considered by Blizzard

Overwatch developer Blizzard is considering cross-save functionality between Windows PC, Xbox One and PS4, letting players carry progression over from one platform to the next.

The catch is that the functionality won’t be implemented any time soon.

“This is something that we have ongoing and frequent discussions about with our tech group,” Blizzard’s Jeff Kaplan said to PCGamesN.

“It’s something we would very much like to explore. It’s very challenging for many reasons, and I won’t get into all the details as to why, but I think it’s a very valid desire that our players have and it’s something that the Overwatch team would love to figure out.”

Nevertheless, Kaplan said Blizzard will “continue to work hard on it to make it happen someday.”
