Cross-Network Play Coming to Xbox One

First fans wanted backwards compatibility, now Microsoft is bringing another highly demanded feature to Xbox One: cross-network play.

Confirmed by director of ID@Xbox One, Chris Charla.

“First, in addition to natively supporting cross-platform play between Xbox One and Windows 10 games that use Xbox Live, we’re enabling developers to support cross-network play as well. This means players on Xbox One and Windows 10 using Xbox Live will be able to play with players on different online multiplayer networks – including other console and PC networks."

"Of course, it’s up to game developers to support this feature, and Xbox Live players will always have the option of choosing to play only with other Xbox Live players. We’re thrilled to confirm that Psyonix’s Rocket League will be one of the first games to take advantage of this new capability by enabling cross-network play between Xbox One and PC players, with an open invitation for other networks to participate as well.”

Despite the recent issues regarding Xbox Live it seems that Microsoft is listening to their fan's requests. First backwards compatibility and now this. Many are probably wondering if Sony will also bring this feature to their console?
