Quiet a surprise for me to be honest. I didn't expect SONY to take a step back and rethink their stance on this even after what happened couple months ago. Definitely a pro-player decision.

Well this is a shock and a good one at that, hopefully this is the start of more games being cross-play on ps4

Wonder if you’ll be able to invite players from other platforms into your party

Hopefully the next one will be Rocket League.

I suppose it was only a matter of time until Sony caved in given how many people were whining about this. I don't really care either way, but I was getting tired of people asking for crossplay even on things that were totally unrelated.

If it goes well, maybe they’ll do more.
