Cross Platform Play

Cross Platform Play or crossplay (also known as cross-progression) is a feature where WARFRAME players from different platforms can play together in the same game instance. It is currently in testing between PC, Xbox, Playstation, and Nintendo Switch platforms.
Cross Platform Play began in between PC and Xbox, but was quickly terminated due to crashes. A second test was implemented in . Following , Playstation and Nintendo Switch were added to the test cluster. Cross Platform Save as well as Trading across different platforms was enabled on .
==Features==
In preparation for Cross Platform Play, Baro Ki'Teer's wares and built/destroyed Relays were synced across all platforms as of .
The feature can be enabled in Settings > System > Cross Platform Play. It allows players to join missions, Relays, Hubs, and Clan Dojos with other players from other different platforms.
Next to a player's name is an icon that displays their played platform. Players on the same platform will show the platform-specific icon, while players on different platforms will show a generic Cross Platform Play icon.

===Cross Platform Play Initial Public Test===
While this test is active, players may see a new option appearing in their settings called “Cross Platform Play.” 
You can toggle the “Cross Platform Play” setting, allowing Tenno from both platforms to join each other’s squads and complete missions together. There will be a few limitations on some features during this test:
*No Friend/Clan support (unless you have the setting enabled)
*No Trading or Gifting of items across different platforms (unless you have the setting enabled)
*No Voice Chat support
Based on the results of this test, we will be able to take those findings and continue to refine our feature development for all platforms. Please note that we will update this thread when the test closes and that the length of the test will be dependent on a variety of factors such as server stability. 
===What are these icons that I am seeing?===
While Cross Platform Play is enabled you will see an icon next to player aliases (including your own) to denote the platform a player is playing from. All players who are on the same platform as you will have the platform-specific icon. Any player who is on a different platform will have the Cross Platform Play icon.
===What are these numbers that I see next to my alias?===
To help identify players who have the same name across different platforms, everyone has been assigned a numeric suffix. This suffix is only necessary when you are looking to invite someone into your squad or chatting with players who have the same name. You can always find your suffix by visiting your Profile in the game menu. If there are no players with the same name, then you can invite and chat as you normally would. 
===How do I whisper my friends with spaces in their names?===
Console Tenno have the ability to have spaces in their aliases which means whispering them requires a small extra step. Should you wish to whisper your friend who has a space in their name, then use quotation marks to capture their full name.
For example: /w “Tenno Are Amazing” Hi friend!
This sends the message “Hi friend!” to the player whose name is Tenno Are Amazing.
All players will have to do this to whisper another player with a space in their name.
===How do Dojos and Relays work during Cross Platform Play?===
If you have “Cross Platform Play” enabled you will be able to meet and interact with players from different platforms in Relays and also be able to visit Dojos! Currently, we are aware of an issue that will prevent Cross Platform squads that form before entering a Dojo from entering. To prevent you from running into this issue, you will see an error message explaining that you must load into the Dojo first and then invite squad members from a different platform. Despite having access to the Dojo and Relays, players will not be able to join Clans from different platforms or trade across different platforms.
For our Switch Tenno, you may experience some performance issues when visiting busy Relays. We encourage you to disable Cross Platform Play while you conduct your business there and to turn it back on to rejoin squads across different platforms when doing missions. We are continuing to work on improving the experience so we appreciate your patience and feedback. If you also notice some performance issues on other platforms when in busy Relays we encourage you to do the same.
===What about Cross Save?===
Cross Platform Play will be our first direction in getting all Tenno to play together, and we will announce details around Cross Save in a future announcement.
===What feedback is most beneficial to Warframe for this test?===
For players who participate in the test, we would love to hear from you, and there are a couple of things you can do that would be greatly appreciated. When submitting your feedback, please:
*Include the platform you are playing on
*Add screenshots/videos of any issues encountered during the test
*For PC, send your EE.log, which can be found by clicking on the “Get Logs” option under the Diagnostics section of the Settings in the launcher
**Please attach EE.Log in a Support Ticket with the title “CROSS PLATFORM PLAY BUG” 
*For PC, detail what happened before any crash occurred when submitting a ticket using Warframe’s crash report tool (it will generate a WAR number)
We are excited to have this test live so that we can continue to connect Tenno across all platforms. With your help, we can iron out major issues and make Cross Platform Play a smoother experience for everyone!
