Deep Rock Galactic is a co-op shooter title from Ghost Ship Games studio that pits you against enemies during mining missions, and players are wondering if it features crossplay. Here’s everything we know about Deep Rock Galatic’s crossplay status.

When you jump into the world of Deep Rock Galactic, you’ll be able to play the role of four different dwarves that embark on missions while battling large hoards of bugs, and the game is available on different platforms.

Deep Rock Galactic was first released for PC and Xbox One before also becoming available on consoles like the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 as well as the Xbox Series X and Series S. If you’re wondering whether this game can be played across platforms then we’ve got the answer.

Does Deep Rock Galactic have crossplay?

Deep Rock Galactic has crossplay but only between Xbox users and PC players that purchased the game from the Windows 10 Store. If you play the game on PC after purchasing it from Steam then you will not have crossplay with Xbox.

At the time of writing, Deep Rock Galactic does not feature full crossplay across every available platform. PlayStation users can take advantage of cross-generation play between the PS4 and PS5.

Is there cross-progression in Deep Rock Galactic

Yes, Deep Rock Galactic features cross-progression, but it is only supported between Xbox and the PC version of the title that players purchased from the Microsoft Store or obtained through the Xbox Game Pass subscription service.

As a result, players can carry their progress over from one platform to another and continue the game from where they left off. However, this is not possible with the Steam version of Deep Rock Galactic, so you can lose your progress if switching from that to another platform.

That covers everything that you need to know about Deep Rock Galactic’s crossplay and cross-progression status.
