While the upcoming dino shooter Exoprimal may be cross-platform, party creation will suffer from the same limitations it had during beta. You’ll be playing the game with and against others on different platforms, but partying up together will be another matter entirely.
Today the developers clarified the restrictions in a Tweet:
On day 1, Exoprimal will support cross-platform matchmaking, but party creation will be specific to each platform ecosystem, as seen below in no particular order:
Group 1: Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Windows
Group 2: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5
Group 3: Steam— Exoprimal (@exoprimal) July 7, 2023
Xbox players will be able to party up with other Xbox and Windows (aka Gamepass) users, PlayStation 4 and 5 can party up with each other, then Steam users will be in a pool of their own.
Not exactly the best way to “play with friends” regardless of platform… hopefully this gets changed sooner rather than later.
Exoprimal is scheduled to launch on July 14.
