168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is just days away from arriving on PC and all major consoles, including PlayStation 4 and 5. And unlike some of Gearbox’s recent games, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands will have full crossplay, finally allowing PlayStation players to game wi🎃th Xbox and PC players.
The news comes straight from Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford, who made th🍃e announce🔥ment on Twitter yesterday.
"Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands will ship on M🍌arch 25 with full crossplay for all platforms at launch, including PlayStation,” . “Incredible work from the engineers at Gearbox Software with thanks to our partners at 2k Games and 1st parties, including Sony, for working together on this.”
Full crossplay on Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands comes in stark contrast to Borderlands 3, which allowed 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:crossplay in Xbox, PC, and Stadia, but not PlayStation consoles. The reason for PlayStation’s exclusion was initially cloudy, with Pitchford explaining it was due to a requirement “by the publisher to remove crossplay support on PlayStation c�💝�onsoles.” We only found out later during the fallout from the Epic vs Apple lawsuit that Sony actually charged publishers tಌo enabl🏅e crossplay on any games played on PlayStation.
Why would Sony charge for crossplay? Well, from Sony’s perspective, they’ve already got the majority𝔉 of players on their console, so enabling crossplay would only encourage some of those players to purchase a competing console. So to convince Sony to enable crossplay on PlayStation, the publisher had to agree to a revenue-sharing model where a small percentage of all sales on competing consoles would go to Sony.
Apparently, the amount Sony asked for with Borderlands 3 was just too much to get 2K Games to pay to enable crossplay. Borderlands 3 crossplay remains off PlayS♓tation to this day, but it seems like Sony and 2K have been able to work something out for Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands.
