Scavengers Studio's Project Darwin is shredding the ice from the doors and opening them so we can all play today. The game launches on PC, PS4, and Xbox One today, and people want to know if it supports cross-platform play.
At the moment, this is not the case. You will be playing exclusively with people on your own platform and will not be able to play with people on other platforms. While the game doesn't currently support cross-platform play, that doesn't mean it won't be coming to the game in the future, so keep your eyes on the website for news.
Project Darwin is a mix of the battle royale genre and a weird TV show. A looming ice age has spawned a new game show, where it all happens. Participants fight to the death for a way to survive the coming frost. One player will take on the role of the show director, who watches over the battle and can support or hinder other players. It's even possible for the Show Director to reveal a player's location on the minimap, so be careful who you talk to trash before the match starts.
The game also has Twitch integration, where viewers can bet on the outcome, and even help the show director choose a player to help or intimidate.
Players will have access to three pieces of equipment that will impact the way they play. The Jet Wings let you fly, the Grapple Gauntlet lets you get up close to enemies quickly, and the Headhunter Drone will help you track targets.
As you can see, there is a lot to do in The Darwin Project, you just won't be able to do with people playing on a different platform than yours.
