When the Emperor calls on you to face down the endless onslaught of Tyranid forces, he doesn’t expect you to go alone. Sure, you are a nearly unkillable Space Marine, but even you will need backup on this mission in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. The campaign isn’t all that long, though it’s more than bloody enough to be satisfying. And replaying missions with friends or jumping into the Operations mode keeps the violence coming. If you fancy yourself a particularly deadly marine, you can even go into PvP.

Clearly, this game was not meant to be played alone, especially not if you want all the Trophies and Achievements — but does it make the list of all cross-platform games?

Is Space Marine 2 cross-platform?

Space Marine 2 is a strange case in which the answer is yes and no depending on what you’re talking about. For crossplay, the game only supports full cross-platform support for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC in the co-op modes. That would be either the campaign or Operations mode. On the other hand, consoles and PC are divided for the PvP modes. Here, PC players are sectioned off while PlayStation and Xbox players can still battle it out on an even playing field.

This is similar to the cross-platform setup for Fallout 76 and Ark: Survival Evolvedwhich have partial cross-platform support.

Thankfully, cross-progression is a much simpler matter. Once you set up your Prism Ray Online Services account before playing, you can access this same account on any platform to move your save wherever you go. This will require you to own a copy of the game on multiple platforms to take advantage of it, but the feature is there if you need it.

Voicemod is breaking free from the PC with this tiny gadget

Changing your character's outfit in a game takes seconds. You can swap skins, change your username, pick a different loadout, and generally make your online character look however you want. Changing how you sound, though, has traditionally been a little more complicated — especially if you're playing on a phone or console. Voicemod wants to fix that with the Voicemod Key Pocket, a tiny hardware device that brings the company's real-time voice changing and soundboards to smartphones, tablets, consoles, and social apps without needing a PC in the middle.

The idea is simple: plug the Key Pocket into your device, connect a headset, and start changing your voice while you talk to others. It works alongside the Voicemod app, where you can browse more than 200 original voices alongside thousands of community-created options.
