MOBA games tend to be some of the best PC games, but they tend not to work on consoles. However, much like Valorant and Path of Exile 2, Smite 2 is embracing the console space. Featuring a huge cast of legendary Gods and other legendary figures, this is one of the most approachable games in the genre. The first game is on our list of all cross-platform games, but can the same be said about its free-to-play sequel? Here’s everything you need to know about Smite 2’s cross-platform support.

Even before Smite 2 left its early access period, we knew the good news that it supports full crossplay support on all platforms. Currently, that includes PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC. While the first game was available on the Switch, it seems this sequel is a bit too big for that console, but there is a good chance it comes to the Switch 2 when that eventually releases.

In addition to full crossplay, Smite 2 also allows for full cross-progression. Because the game is completely free, that makes it as easy as can be to pick up the game on console, jump over to PC, and then back again depending on what you have available. It is also a great Steam Deck game so you can still play it on the go. All you need to do is make sure all your accounts are linked on the Smite 2 website and you can carry all your progress with you.

One of the reasons that Bungie's Destiny series has lasted so long as a live service game is that it was one of the first to embrace cross-platform support. The studio's next project, Marathon, will also be a live service title, but this time it comes in the form of an extraction shooter instead of an MMO-lite looter shooter. Even after the team was acquired by PlayStation, Destiny still kept its cross-platform support, but what about this next project? Will Sony keep players relegated to their own platforms, or will you be able to team up with your friends on Tau Ceti IV regardless of where you are playing? Here's what you need to know about Marathon's cross-platform support.

All PlayStation consoles, ranked
best ps1 games sony ps1

The origins of PlayStation are a direct result of a deal gone bad with Nintendo. To make a long story short, Sony was planning on making a disc-based Nintendo console, but Nintendo backed out of the deal at the last minute and partnered with Phillips. After that betrayal, Sony launched the PS1, and the rest is history. We're now enjoying the best PS5 games, with new and old PlayStation franchises keeping the console popular. But which of Sony's consoles had the greatest impact on the gaming industry? We need to take more into consideration besides great games when ranking a console, and the result is by no means scientific. Based on the cultural impact, reception, and nostalgia, these are all the PlayStation consoles ranked from worst to best.
