The PS4, Switch, Stadia, and Xbox One versions of the game will soon let everyone share progression between them and play with each other.
Dead By Daylight will add cross-play and progression to the game, is getting a big update for the consoles versions soon, as well as allowing you access your full list of friends who are playing the game across different systems.
On the game’s site, the development team has detailed how all this will work. The game already features cross-play between Windows 10 and Steam, and after extensive testing, the game’s plan is planning on expanding out further. Developer Behaviour Studios has confirmed that cross-progression will be available on some platforms by the end of the year. Some of their players are active on several platforms and cross-progression is also one of the top wishes from their community. They announced that they are thrilled to preparing the first steps toward cross-progression. It will be available for Nintendo Switch, Steam, and Google Stadia. Gamers will be able to share their inventory, progression, and purchases on those 3 platforms. But they cannot make cross-progression available on other platforms and has “no guarantee that it will happen”, either, which means console players will not be able to make use of the feature any time soon. But despite acknowledging it could not guarantee when cross-progression would come to consoles, Behaviour Studio said it would “keep trying to make it happen” as it knew it was “a community wish” to roll the feature out across all platforms.
Players will be able to share their inventory, progression, and purchases across Google Stadia, Nintendo Switch and PC on Steam from September as part of preparing the first steps towards cross-progression. The latest chapter in the multiplayer horror game hit consoles and PC in June.
