Two armies clash in Manor Lords.

Building and managing your own medieval utopia is a lonely job. Sure, you have a population of citizens to grow and order around, but they can’t compare with another actual human player. At least at launch, Manor Lords is a PC exclusive, and it’s also going to be coming to Xbox consoles as well so even more people can get in on the city-building fun. We can expect basically any modern game to allow for cross-platform play, but what if Manor Lords is stuck in the Middle Ages? Here’s everything you need to know about cross-platform support for the latest and greatest management simulator.

Is Manor Lords cross-platform?

Without beating around the bush, no, Manor Lords has no cross-platform support. Even when the game is available on Steam, PC Game Pass, and Xbox consoles, there will be no way to play with others on different platforms. In fact, you can’t play with people on the same platform, either. Manor Lords has no multiplayer component whatsoever — either co-op or competitive — so there’s no reason for this feature to be included.

Sadly, you shouldn’t expect any multiplayer to come to the game later. A developer released an FAQ prior to the game’s launch and responded to a question regarding multiplayer, stating: “The focus is on a refined single-player experience, with no multiplayer or cooperative modes planned at the moment.”

Sorry, my lords, but you will need to raise up your villages on your own this time.

Roblox is turning 20 soon, and it's marking the occasion with a new way to make games without writing a single line of code. The platform's whole pitch has always been that anyone can be a creator, not just professional studios. Now, with millions of daily users, Roblox is finally bringing that power straight to your tablets and phones.

Artificial intelligence is often blamed for making people less social. Whether it's AI replacing conversations, reducing teamwork, or making gaming feel less human, the narrative has largely remained the same. But a new study suggests the opposite could also be true. In fact, AI might be quietly encouraging people to spend more time with their friends.

Researchers studying PUBG: Battlegrounds have found that introducing AI-controlled opponents into multiplayer matches didn't isolate players. Instead, it made them more confident, kept them playing longer, and even encouraged them to squad up with friends more often. The findings, which will appear in the journal Information Systems Research, offer an interesting perspective on how AI can improve user experiences rather than simply automating them.
