When it was announced that “Fortnite Battle Royale” was coming to the Nintendo Switch and that it’s available right now, many fans rejoiced. Unfortunately, not everyone had cause to celebrate, especially those who were playing the game on the Sony PlayStation 4. Apparently, their accounts on the console prohibit the sharing of progress between the two platforms.
“Fortnite” players who have been playing on the PS4 recently learned that they are unable to share their data between the Sony console and the Switch, The Verge reports. This means that all of the progression that they have achieved thus far is locked up. As expected, this infuriated many players, who can’t believe that Sony’s objection to crossplay would go this far.
With any other platform, be it the PC or mobile, account holders of Epic profiles can share data regarding the game irrespective of the device they are playing on. The Switch is only the latest to join this list, but Sony simply refuses to budge.
For PS4 owners, one of the only options that they have, if they want to play “Fortnite” on the Switch, is to create an entirely new account. This would mean that they would have to start over from scratch. They could also simply stick with playing the game on the PS4, but many would likely find this unacceptable.
In related news that offers a bit more positivity, the recently concluded tournament during E3 does more than provide a bit of fun for “Fortnite” players and $3 million in prizes. It also offered a glimpse of the kind of energy that the game’s future eSports events might have, Engadget reports.
The E3 event was a monumental development after all, with huge names from music, sports, and even Hollywood coming together to play. It was the kind of event that needed to be seen to be believed, and “Fortnite” has yet to really hit its stride.
The tournament also highlighted how tense and tactical matches can be, especially when going up against skilled players. It’s safe to assume that “Fortnite” has the potential to start a revolution in eSports.
