Bungie 'absolutely' interested in adding cross-play to Destiny 2

What you need to know

  • Bungie says it is absolutely interested in Destiny 2 cross-play support.
  • Destiny 2 is getting cross-save support this fall with its 'Shadowkeep' expansion.
  • It is also coming to Stadia.

Now that Bungie's free from its corporate overlords, it's been making some incredibly welcome changes and additions to the game. This fall the game should be getting cross-save across platforms, and it appears that cross-play is something that the studio is "absolutely" interested in, according to Destiny General Manager Mark Noseworthy on Twitter.

Stadia as a platform doesn't make implementing Cross Play any harder actually. We're focused on Cross Save this year (for all platforms). Cross Play is absolutely something we're interested in doing some day, but we have a lot on our plate to chew through first!

His tweet was in response to a comment from Kotaku's Jason Schreier who said that Bungie wanted cross-play to happen, but they were limited by technical challenges due to it being difficult with Stadia. As it turns out, this doesn't appear to be the case.

Destiny 2's Shadowkeep expansion is set to launch on September 17, at which point cross-save should become available as well.
