Sony has now apparently responded to Microsoft's offer to introduce crossplay.
It's quite an amusing spectacle that one can currently watch. The two console giants Sony and Microsoft are having a conversation without actually communicating with each other. They are even avoiding looking in each other's general direction.
Just on Monday, Microsoft indicated that it wants to open its network to "other consoles and PCs". This would mean that PlayStation and Xbox players could finally play together cross-platform if developers create appropriate features for their games.
However, Microsoft managed to address the offer practically into the void without ever explicitly mentioning PlayStation.
Now Sony responds in the same way, into the void. In a statement to Gamespot regarding how it responds to Microsoft's offer, Sony says: It is "open to cross-console play." After all, it has supported this since the days of Final Fantasy 11 on the PlayStation 2 in 2002.
They would be happy about any conversation they could have with a publisher or developer about cross-platform play, it continues.
