The cross-platform version of Minecraft was finally launched on PlayStation 4 on December 10th this week, which can be played across platforms with Xbox One, Windows 10, Nintendo Switch, iPhone, Android and Gear VR.

  

      Microsoft said in a press release today that the owners of Minecraft:PlayStation 4 will then "start updating" to the cross-platform version. Just like on Xbox One, the cross-platform version will be an independent game. If the player has an old version of PlayStation 4, he can still play, but he will no longer offer to buy it.

      The physical version of "My World: PlayStation 4 Edition" can also obtain the digital version of the cross-platform version of "My World". If it is the same as Xbox One, players can get it for free as long as they play for 5 hours in the past 12 months or buy DLC.

      Microsoft proved to foreign media Eurogamer that players need to log in to Xbox Live to play the cross-platform version of My World on PS4. Of course, players don’t have to subscribe to Xbox Live Gold membership.

      A leading researcher told Eurogamer: "Free Microsoft or Xbox Live can enable all MyWorld players to synchronize their progress and purchase information across platforms (including PS4)." "You don’t need any Xbox Live gold membership service to play My World. 」

      In addition, it is said that it is also confirmed that PS4 players will not be able to achieve Xbox achievements and unlock the trophy.

      Eurogamer asked Microsoft, and Microsoft said, "This is an important year for My World. We have been making major changes to the game and taking measures in new directions, but our initial goal is to connect players through various devices and get the best experience regardless of the platform, which will remain unchanged forever. "

      "We have been discussing this issue with Sony’s partners, and from the perspective of the studio and the community, now is the right time for PS4 players to join the cross-platform play. 」
