The tools support merging of friends lists, account linking, and cross-platform invites for games that are available in both launchers. For now, the tools allow for cross-play between Steam and Epic Games, with console and mobile support coming in the near future. The publisher has released new cross-compatibility tools which developers can use to implement cross-play between different launchers.

On PC, however, there’s still the problem of cross-play support between Steam and Epic Games Store, a problem that’s now been solved by Epic. Over the past few years, cross-platform play is slowly becoming the norm with Microsoft and Sony finally deciding to play nice with each other.
