Overwatch gets cross-play between PC and console players

Overwatchis available on multiple platforms, but players couldn’t team up with friends using other platforms until now.

Cross-Playis designed to let players team up across PC, PS4,Xbox OneandNintendo Switch.

There are a few catches.

Multiplayer matchmaking will still attempt to group PC players against each other, and the same for console players.

There’s also no competitive mode for PC and console players grouping with each other.

Console players will also need to sign up for a Battle.net account to participate in Cross-Play.

Cross-Play is currently in beta and will be available sometime soon.
