If anyone is curious, this was Sony's official response:
> We’re always open to hearing what the PlayStation community is interested in to enhance their gaming experience. Fortnite is already a huge hit with PS4 fans, offering a true free-to-play experience so gamers can jump in and play online. With 79 million PS4s sold around the world and more than 80 million monthly active users on PlayStation Network, we’ve built a huge community of gamers who can play together on Fortnite and all online titles. We also offer Fortnite cross-play support with PC, Mac, iOS, and Android devices, expanding the opportunity for Fortnite fans on PS4 to play with even more gamers on other platforms.[1]

- Someone1234 8y agoThat's a response that lacks a response. They don't address Switch or XBox cross-play.
- tyfon 8y agoIt's the response of a dominant player. Microsoft had the exact same stance when they had the 360 while Sony on the struggling PS3 wanted cross play.
- ashleyn 8y agoI've been following Sony for twenty years or so. "Interop" is not a word in their vocabulary. There are many innovations such as Minidisc, SACD, and ATRAC that never truly took off because they wanted to run proprietary from end to end and own all the rights. They never took a lesson from why IBM's microchannel bus doomed the PS/2. Proprietary standards hamper adoption and success. Many try to be Apple but only one can end up pulling it off.
