Fortnite Cross-Play Accidentally Allowed, Now Disabled - News

by VGChartz Staff , posted on 18 September 2017 / 9,114 Views

Fans of Epic Games' Fortnite discovered today that cross-platform play was actually allowed for the game. Reddit user PRE_-CISION-_ realised that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 gamers had unintentionally been playing together when he noticed that his kill feed featured a player name which included a space, something PSN does not allow.

Epic Games has since confirmed to Eurogamer that this was not intentional and the feature has now been disabled. "We had a configuration issue and it has now been corrected," an Epic spokesperson told the outlet.

So you must code the game so that it won't work... Now no one can say it is not possible.

Sony and their anti consumer ways. And the obvious few will defend it to the end.
