“The game will allow for cross-play multiplayer (PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 players will be able to play together, same for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. PlayStation players will not be able to play with Xbox players).”<\/p>\n
Generally, crossplay support allows players to play with each other, irrespective of the platform or console generation. This sounds like the game supports cross-generational (cross-gen) play, rather than cross-platform play.<\/p>\n As to whether crossplay will be supported at launch is looking less likely for the time being. But based on the information provided for the Closed Network Test<\/a>, it does seem that cross-gen support will be included.<\/p>\n If crossplay support won’t be included with Elden Ring at launch, it may be possible that cross-save support won’t be featured. Even so, there is still plenty of time left until the game’s February release<\/a> for the developers to revise these game features.<\/p>\n Similarly, the results from the networking test could potentially see several changes being made to the game ahead of its launch. Whether they will include full crossplay and cross-save support remains to be announced.<\/p>\n The developers have stated in their Closed Network Test FAQ support page<\/a> that all game data from the networking test will not be transferable. As such, any progress made will be reset once the test has concluded.<\/p>\nElden Ring cross-save support<\/h2>\n
