The development team at Psyonix has delivered one of the most interesting and successful titles of the past year with Rocket League, and it seems that the company might also be the first that has managed to solve the issue of introducing cross-platform play between the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.



Jeremy Dunham, a vice president at the studio, tells Gamespot that his team now needs to see how the politics of the situation evolve before making an announcement about the solution and about when they might implement it for their title.
He explains that "Technologically everything works, we've got it figured out, just a little bit of time to get everything up and running. Right now, excitement is the best way to put it. We just want to get in there and make it happen. Elation is probably another word I would use. We're just excited."
Dunham believes that creating a unified community for Rocket League is a great idea because it would improve the overall health of the title and would allow players to quickly find groups to play with because otherwise there's a psychological effect that can make players abandon a title if they fail to find friends.
Rocket League can evolve faster if all platforms are connected According to Psyonix, it can implement new features for the title if they can deliver all of them at the same time on the Xbox One, the PC, and the PlayStation 4.
At the moment, gamers on both the Microsoft and the Sony home consoles are able to connect to those on the PC.
Psyonix says that sales for the game have been solid, and they plan to continue to deliver updates for it all through 2016, and that might include a new specially designed basketball mode.
Gamers can now pick up the Batmobile in order to use it in football matches, and more skins and tweaks are coming.
Recently, Microsoft announced that it was improving connectivity between the Xbox One and the PC, even if the platform does not run Windows 10, and that it is open to doing the same with other companies to offer cross-platform play.
Sony says that it is interested in having this conversation, but it is unclear whether the two platform holders are keen on cutting a deal as quickly as possible or if pressure from the public is required to push them to introduce the new feature.
