Is Payday 3 cross-platform?

By Jesse Lennox Published September 19, 2023

The PayDay series made a name for itself among the other contemporary co-op shooters of the time by putting players in the role of criminals attempting to pull off various heists. Each game in the series has upped the ante on more creative and fun places to burgle, break into, and extort for the titular payday. The latest entry, PayDay 3, offers plenty of new content as expected, but retains that core formula of teaming up with friends to coordinate the perfect job. However, it has been many years since the last entry so this will be the first exposure to the series for many players. With the game being available on all platforms, and even included at launch on Game Pass, you may want to stake out this article to learn if PayDay 3 supports cross-play.

Does Payday 3 have crossplay?

Yes, PayDay 3 fully supports crossplay between all platforms, including PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. When booting up the game for the first time you will be prompted on whether or not you want to enable cross-play, so simply accept it and you will be good to go. If you select to not enable it, you can always switch it back on in the settings menu.

You will also be required to create a Starbreeze account before playing, which also means that PayDay 3 fully supports cross-platform progression. In short, you can not only play with anyone on any system, but you are free to transfer your progress between platforms as well.

All confirmed music in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4

THPS 3 + 4

Activsion knew what it was doing when it revealed Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 with the iconic Ace of Spades playing in the background. Those who played these games on the PS2 cannot separate the memories of grinding and flipping through those classic maps. We already know that all the old maps are coming back, plus a ton of skaters, but the big question was about the music. The first pair of remakes managed to bring back most of the old tracklist, but not everything. Here is every confirmed track, new and old, coming to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4.

Sadly, the full original soundtracks for these games will not be included in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4. Like the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 remake, we will get a majority of the old songs with some new ones mixed in. As of May 8, we now have three waves of music available, all of which are listed below. You can rock out with the currently released songs right now via the official Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 Spotify playlist that will update with future waves as they come out.

How long is Split Fiction?

Zoe and Mio run through a sci-fi world in Split Fiction.

There are plenty of great co-op games on the market, and a lot are great for couples, but Split Fiction from Hazelight Studios is a special case. Unlike most multiplayer games, this one actually requires you to have a partner to play. Thankfully, that is easier than ever with cross-platform support and the Friend Pass, but it does mean you need to plan a bit more to make sure you both have enough time to see it through to the end. Each of the stuidio's games have gotten a bit longer, but is that the case with Split Fiction? Here's how long it takes to beat this co-op adventure.
How long is Split Fiction?

Split Fiction is roughly the same length as It Takes Two. From our experience, that puts it comfortably within the 10 to 12 hour range. However, that can easily be pushed to 12 to 15 hours depending on the skill level of both players and your ability to coordinate. Even a pair of veteran gamers who have never played a game as reliant on team work might struggle a bit early on and get slowed down.

This title will be available on PS4, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC at launch with no barriers between platforms.

Multiplayer will allow for up to 8 skaters to grind the rails together, depending on the mode you pick. Being crossplay on so many platforms should ensure that you never have trouble finding other skaters to hit the park with.
