The walls may be coming down between PlayStation and Xbox, to one degree or another.
The Xbox brand is to allow Xbox One and Windows 10 players to play not only together via Xbox Live but also with those on different console and PC networks.
In future, cross-network play will allow Xbox One and PC players to play together, announced Chris Charla, Director of Xbox's independent developer program ID@Xbox.
And though the Xbox policy of never directly mentioning a competitor appears to remain firmly in place, Charla did mention that the "Rocket League" news includes an "open invitation for other networks to participate aswell."
With "Rocket League" supporting cross-platform, cross-network play between PlayStation 4 and Windows PC sincea mid-2015 release, it's being taken as read that Charla's opening the door to an unprecedented move: multiplayer sessions between Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
"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," he wrote in a March 14 blog post to Xbox.com.
