Overwatch to implement cross-play

Overwatch will soon implement cross-play, allowing users to team up regardless of their preferred platform, developer Blizzard Entertainment announced.

With the release of cross-play, all players will need to create a Battle.net account to link to their console accounts. Additionally, everyone who logs in to Overwatch by the end of 2021 will receive a “Golden Loot Box” to celebrate.

Cross-play will launch in the beta phase. The Overwatch development team will be monitoring feedback and look to make improvements on the feature moving forward.

Overwatch is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC.
