Gamers weren’t mincing their words when it came to Sony’s decision not to enable cross-platform play in Fortnite on their PlayStation 4 console. Today it seems the company has had a change of heart and cross-platform play in Fortnite is set to be a reality. This means that Nintendo Switch owners can hook up with their friends on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC and mobile. So it is bound to benefit Nintendo Switch owners. It seems Sony is looking to see if the support can be expanded to other games.
Fortnite cross-platform play starts today in open beta. Full details: https://t.co/fyPmx4iB4O pic.twitter.com/wdY3GnT4u1

The best place to play……is…with everyone else…. – Sony
Silly question….in my lobby on fortnite it says same platform. So am I only playing switch users? It says cross platform if I invite a friend from PC I noticed.
Yeah you only play cross platform when you’re either friends on another platform AFAIK.
Ahh Sony, finally realising your mistake!!
What the…?!!!
It seems that sony does have a change of heart about cross platforms. Yay!
Now I can play with my whole family xbox switch ps4 and my pc friends all on one team
did they fix the motion control yet?
For pro controllers yeah. At least it seemed fine when I used it a couple days ago.
Just a heads up. For people who had to create a second account to play on switch fortnite just tweeted this:
“For players who created an extra account to play Fortnite on multiple console platforms, we’re working on two things:
1) An account-merging feature to combine Battle Royale purchases, coming in November.
2) Enabling unlinking a console from one Fortnite account, and relinking to another Fortnite account. Coming in a few days.”
I don’t know if you want to add this to the article to save people from asking on here.
It seems the Sonyan forces have changed their plans.
First they announced that they are not interested in the handheld market (for now)
Now this. What’s goind on?
*going
I assume, Admiral, that Sony has risen the white flag and join the #PlayTogether campaign with Nintendo and Microsoft.
I saw some messages about this.
PS: I’m not the Admiral
Amazing, now everyone can pown and stomp on Nintendo gamers, check youtube how people upload video’s owning Nintendo gamers, because Nintendo is the only console where Fortnite is 30 FPS, L O L
People with 60 frames can’t wait taking on the little boys on nintendo kiddy console
Thats weird I still killing a lot Sony kiddies all time begging me to stop. Maybe you got confused with you or kind of sony kiddies.

It was a stupid decision in the first place. Glad they didn’t stick with it.
