Play together on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox, and Windows!
Imagine this: you’re
going to a party with a friend. As soon as the door opens, you get asked, “what
platform do you play games on?” Confused, you go along with it (because mama
raised you to be a polite guest) and answer that you play on Xbox while your
friend plays on Nintendo Switch. You’re then torn apart from your friend and
forced to go to two different parties! What do you do now?
Dear reader, this is not the world’s most
heavily branded choose-your-own-adventure novel. It’s a real dilemma for us who
want to play Minecraft Dungeons with our friends on different platforms. Or, it
was a dilemma – but not anymore! Once you download the free
cross-platform play update that goes live today, you will be able to play
with your friends no matter what platform or console they’re playing on. Play
the game together on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and Windows! Finally,
a party where nobody is sitting awkwardly in a corner watching others have fun.
In related
cross-platform news, cloud saves are coming soon to Minecraft Dungeons! That
means you’ll be able to play on one platform, use the new cloud save feature,
then pick up the game and your progress on another platform. While we don’t
have a launch date set for this feature, our team is hard at work and very
excited to bring it to life in an upcoming free update. We hope to have more
news soon, but for now you’ll still need to save your files on each individual
platform.
For questions about cross-platform play, the
free update, or the upcoming cloud save feature, please refer to this FAQ.
In the meantime, if anyone invites you to a party where you can only hang out
with people who all play games on the same platform, you leave that party
immediately and jump into the nearest game of Minecraft Dungeons. Remember: the
only thing more important than defeating the Arch-Illager is friendship (and
sick loot).
