When Microsoft announced earlier this year that the Xbox One console will launch the cross-platform play feature, some mixed comments from the avid fans did came around. But the one thing that remained positive about this feature is that Microsoft through the Xbox One cross-platform play is reaching out to others in giving players the best gaming experience.
Now, Xbox co-creator Ed Fries said during his IGN interview that he would hope, Sony will consider the system and will eventually join the feature. He said "I hope that Sony is going to respond. It's good to see some of the war kind of ramping down; more respect and cooperation between those two groups. I'm very optimistic for the future of both companies."
Although Sony has not given any feedback on the said feature, not only is Xbox's Fries who wants to hear it from Sony, but also the millions of players who want diversity in their own respective consoles.
Meanwhile, the first game to ever hit the Xbox one cross-platform play is Psyonix's "Rocket League" game. More games are expected to follow and depending on the creator and developer of a certain title, they may opt to join the cross-platform play or make their games exclusive to their chosen system.
In a report by the Polygon in March, Microsoft subtly announced Xbox One cross-platform play and hinted on others joining the feature by saying, there's an open invitation for other platforms at a later date. Also, director of ID@Xbox Chris Charla said, the feature is not mandatory and players can still choose to play among their fellow Xbox One users.
