Cross play would be pretty nice to have between consoles and maybe PC but atm PC would dominate because they have more setting options to change and optimise their game etc. But cross play just between consoles at least would be nice.

I can confirm that cross-platform play will be coming before the end of the year and when it does it will be entirely optional.
Thanks a million :)

Hi AJ,
Quick follow-up question regarding cross-play: Even if Cross-Platform play is enabled, are there any plans to have matchmaking still chose lobbies based on control inputs?
For example: if you are a party of 3 console players on controller, would the game acknowledge this and put you into another lobby that is controller only (ie. PS4 and X1?)
Then of course, if players opt to party up with a PC / KBM user, that group would be placed in those lobbies instead.
As a PS4 player, I'm of the position that I'd love to open up my matchmaking to other controller players (namely Xbox One) but wouldn't want to go up against KBM players on PC.
Thank you!
I unfortunately don't have any more specific details on how the case you've described will be handled at this point. But, it's a really interesting question and one I'd recommend you ask the next time we have a Dev AMA as they will probably know for sure!
Thanks a million :) AJ
