Is The First Descendant crossplay or cross-platform?

The First Descendant will soon launch on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, and if you’re wondering about crossplay and cross-progression, you’ve come to the right place.

Does The First Descendant have crossplay or cross-platform play?

Yes, it does. During the second beta test of The First Descendant, we actually got a glimpse of crossplay where PlayStation and Xbox players teamed up with Steam players. The open beta test went surprisingly well so we have high hopes about the full release. 

Even better, The First Descendant will have last-gen versions available, so even PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players will get to enjoy Nexon’s new looter-shooter.

Does The First Descendant have cross-platform progression?

Yes, it does. While we still haven’t had a chance to test out the cross-platform progression, Nexon has confirmed that the option will be available. In an interview with God is a Geek, the producer Beom-jun Lee said:

“Yes, that’s right. We support both cross-play and cross-progression, so you can play freely on any platform with shared progression. This cross-platform support starts during the upcoming Crossplay Open Beta, so we hope you’ll check it out”.

Cross-platform progression may not be available at launch, so we’ll have to wait and see. It’s wonderful to see a free-to-play game launch on so many platforms and allow all its players to play together.
