I wonder what will happen to the Fornite accounts that were on PS4 first. Will we be able to link them to other consoles now?

(PS4) Fortnite cross-play open beta now live, Sony looking into support for other games
- Thread starter Kolx
- Start date
And some people can't just be happy and still devolve shit into console wars.
Listen if some people want to thank Sony. So be it. If some don't so be it. It's just fucking video games.
Yall complain more than you enjoy them these days.

To those who told the rest of us to stop complaining about this -- that it didn't matter -- hopefully you see now that it did. This is why we shouldn't give up and allow anti-consumer decisions. Change can happen.
As someone who only plays Fortnite on PS4, this is good stuff. Congrats to all the people who kept the pressure up for this, the efforts paid off. The rollout might be slow, but I feel this was the last real hurdle to a universal crossplay future, and we're about to enter a new normal.
Now that we're all in a big happy family, I can play Fortnite on PC and just set it so I play only against Nintendo Switch players right
I thought they were going to save it for the PS5 to be frank, but there you go. People who care about it, enjoy :)
Yes?
Doesn't change the fact that it's open for everything as long as the dev implement it.
For many devs, there was no point semparating their servers.
Which wouldn't be needed if Sony allows crossplay (and not just "for select third party game" while still blocking the rest).
Says in the OP that they are allowing cross progression and commerce across platforms.
Figures it would happen eventually this is good does nothing for me tho
Has anyone found out if people with fucked up locked accounts will be able to use them? That's on Epic to fix.
Yes. It's finally over. Lick my balls everyone who argued against this and said by complaining on the internet meant nothing.
Eh the account blocking was extremely anti-consumer. That wasn't cautiousness, noone else does that shit.
I'm aware of what it says.
He already knows, he's just being deliberately ignorant.
Wow, I damn sure didn't think they would budge until next gen started. Good job for not allowing the arrogance on this matter run any longer then it already has Sony.
Now all we need is for Disney to rehire James Gunn for Guardians of the Galaxy
Because now some fanboys have 1 less thing to complain about Sony. It hurts. Everyone should be happy about this. Its just 1 game but its a huge step to a possible future where all multiplayer games could be crossplay.
I'm sure they wouldn't have budged if there weren't some financial incentive, Sony doesn't actually care about individual consumers.
This is what I'm hoping. I don't see why not? That was really the main issue for me.
Can I move my account? Or just play with people other places?
Basically, will my Epic account stats and skins now show up on Switch and Xbox?

Still actually shocked they caved. They even recently pretty much just told everyone "no, fuck off and stop asking" I'd love to know what was the final straw.
Ah, I see what you're saying. Yeah, Sony is still just dipping their toes. Hopefully positive support for this decision will help motivate them loosen the shackles some more.
Business-wise it's a good move that they 1) accepted cross-platform play as it's the future & 2) handled this relatively 'early'. You don't want to start next-gen hype on the back of 'arrogant Sony'.
Need a bunch of testimonials telling me I can log into my Switch account on PS4 and everything is okay before I do it. Shit is nerve-wracking because of how it worked before
wtf is this?
another "lose" cause? I don't even know what the hell you're trying to say
