Sony boss reiterates no cross-play for PlayStation...
Sony's chief executive says the company is not planning to allow Fortnite players on PlayStation to compete cross-platform because it feels their console offers the best experience for gamers. The technology giant caused controversy earlier this year when the battle royale game launched on the Nintendo Switch, but existing PlayStation players discovered they could not move or change platforms on the same account – despite Xbox and PC players being able to do so. In spite of vocal protests from gamers in response, Sony has not yet changed its policy. New chief executive Kenichiro Yoshida said the company believes the best experience is on PlayStation 4.
