Players report cross play between Xbox One and PS4 in Fortnite

18/9/2017

The above image comes from a thread on Reddit. The user, PRE_-CISION-_, noticed what appeared to be an Xbox Gamertag whilst playing Fortnite on PS4.

He posted another thread a day earlier after seeing a username that's impossible to create on PS4. PSN doesn't allow spaces when creating a profile, only underscores. Initially thinking it to be a glitch, he searched for a PS4 account with that name but found nothing. After some sleuthing, he discovered it was an Xbox Live Gamertag.
A second user also joined in, posting an image which he claims is yet further proof of cross play being enabled between the two consoles.

Some are suggesting that those Gamertags could belong to PC players but a user on Neogaf searched for one of the names on Epic Launcher to be told the user doesn't exist.

Could this be clever image manipulation? An accident by the developers? Epic Games haven't released a statement as of writing but we're sure one will be forthcoming.

Whatever the case, it's clear that cross play between the two giants is becoming more and more of a hot topic. Recently, the developers of Ark: Survival Evolved claimed that cross play was possible and could be switched on within a matter of days.

What are your thoughts on cross play? Let us know below or over in the forums.
