PC to Xbox migration

Switch was able because it was a new launch. Xbox or PS4 or switch likely wont see anything again tell they start rolling out shared progress between accounts. And that has no ETA as they have barely discussed the logistics of it all internally.

I'd recommend the search function for pages and pages of similar topics, some with direct links to vids where the devs, during their streams, have said as much.

The game still drastically changes between main patches and there is always a delay between PC and any of the consoles in certification and PC basically being beta testers so console launches are a bit smoother. It's a lot of work in the background syncing the transfer. And of course the old legacy deals they signed to Microsoft and Sony. It was a different climate than now.

for scale: The last Xbox migration was after it launched in winter 2014

why you say nope? you know something o.o

 

Probably because the transfer window is always limited. The only thing I’ve heard about is some form of cross save across all platforms, but that might be limited too.

My guess is that each platform kinda wants to keep their players and not lose them whenever someone gets a new console or graphics card.

What they said. 

 

Understand OP, those migrations are a significant undertaking, involving multiple companies, and and not just something that DE can do on a whim. So is shared progress and save file migration. It sucks that you missed it. It sucks that we can't go the other way, but it is what it is.

well RIP, ig just play the waiting game and hope they do it again

 

I am 99.9% sure migrations will never be a thing again unless DE starts again on a new console. And the migration would be most likely PC-New Platform even then, and just once.

There is a faint hope that migrations won't be needed, however. If DE manages to make cross-progression a thing in the future. Which is not guaranteed yet despite being a desire by them and many people. We shall all play the waiting game!
