Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford has said PlayStation cross-platform support has been cut from an upcoming Borderlands 3 patch – though without explaining why.
In a tweet sent this afternoon, Pitchford said that while a Borderlands 3 update had been prepared for release “that includes full crossplay support across all platforms”, PlayStation will ultimately not be included.
Pitchford did not detail why, upon submitting the patch for certification, Gearbox was then forced to remove crossplay by the game’s publisher 2K. Did Sony suddenly decide to take issue with the game’s long-promised crossplay becoming a reality? Or did Gearbox and/or 2K decide not to play by Sony’s rules? Pitchford has so far chosen not to elaborate.
