Support for cross-platform play also means that Fortnite players will be able to transfer their progress, gameplay and any V-bucks that might have accumulated. However, in case some players already created separate accounts, the developer of Fortnite, Epic Games have announced that there are working on a way to merge accounts. This feature is scheduled to be available in November. Further, it is also working on a way to unlink a console from one Fortnite account and relink it to another. This particular feature is said to be available in the coming days.
Sony writes, “today, the communities around some games have evolved to the point where cross-platform experiences add significant value to players. In recognition of this, we have completed a thorough analysis of the business mechanics required to ensure that the PlayStation experience for our users remains intact today, and in the future, as we look to open up the platform.”
