The functionality cross-play of the cooperative Ghost of Tsushima will be available in version beta at launch on PC: it will allow you to play Legends mode together with PS4 and PS5 users, but for the moment only by invitation.
He announced it Nixxes, the development team who was responsible for carrying out the PC conversion of the Sucker Punch title, which inevitably ended up at the center of discussions due to the obligation to have a PSN account, even if only for the multiplayer component.
Precisely this aspect of the experience will therefore debut in non-definitive conditions, lacking a matchmaking system that automatically associates users regardless of the platform.
“As previously announced, the Legends cooperative multiplayer mode will include cross-play between players on PS4 consoles, PS5 consoles, and PC,” Nixxes’ post reads. “At launch, however, Legends will work on PC but it will not be matched automatically to players on different platforms.”
“Cross-play will launch in beta, which means that you can try it by inviting your PlayStation Network friends. We’d love to hear your feedback as we continue to make changes in the weeks following launch!”
Steam Deck supported but not verified
Furthermore, as mentioned in the title of the news, the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima will be optimized for Steam Deck although without being officially verified for the handheld produced by Valve due to the issue related to the use of PSN accounts.
“We know many of you are eager to play Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut on portable gaming devices like Steam Deck,” Nixxes wrote. “Well, we’re happy to announce that single player, including the Iki Island expansion, can be enjoyed on Steam Deck and similar portable PCs, as we have worked extensively to optimize performance and deliver the best possible experience on these devices.”
“You may notice that Steam lists the game as ‘not supported’ for Steam Deck. However, this is solely due to the fact that Legends co-op multiplayer mode requires Windows to access the built-in features of the PlayStation Network.”
