Apex Legends released recently and while the title will support cross-play the title won’t launch with cross-progression though.
Thanks Nintendo Life who had interview with the game’s developer, there’s confirmationabout it as as Respawn’s Chad Grenier said he even wanted to bring over his progress from another console to Nintendo Switch.
Thankfully, the team are hard at work at making it happen so hopefully the game will be patched soon to include cross-progression.
Grenier about cross-progression
It is planned, but I think we’re a ways out from being able to offer that. I really want it as a gamer myself, so I hear what our fans are saying and I totally agree with them.
We’re doing work to try to make that happen, it’s a complex challenge of multiple accounts existing for various users that we have to resolve or merge, there are legal and contractual things to navigate with purchasing on other platforms and having those carryover and also some technical challenges.
So it’s not something we can just turn on, but we are working towards having it and the team is passionate about delivering it at some point.
