The Technical Side: Cross-Platform and Cross-Progression
Cross Platform Game Development
Developing a cross-platform game is no small feat. It involves intricate coding and partnership between different platform providers, such as Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox, and PlayStation. This complexity is often a hurdle for developers, especially when working with a game that wasn't initially designed with cross platform play in mind.
Cross-Progression: A Step Towards Unity
Cross-progression is another feature that gamers long for. It allows players to carry over their game progress, achievements, and purchases across different platforms. Payday 2 does not support cross-progression. But Payday 3 does have cross-progression support.
