SYNDUALITY Echo of Adais an upcoming PvPvE title from Bandai Namco Entertainment and Game Studio Inc. The live-service extraction shooter pits players against each others as they command Mecha bipods across a hostile terrain looking for valuable resources. It’s coming to PC and consoles with support for cooperative play. However, does SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada have crossplay support? Here is everything you need to know.
Does SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada Have Crossplay Support?
No,SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada does not have crossplay support. The developers (Game Studio Inc) confirmed this in an interview with the Korean publicationThis Is Game.
Here is the relevant question from the interview (Google translated)
This was the case during the multiple network tests as well, and players on different platforms (PC, Xbox Series S|X, and PS5) could not interact with each other. This is a bit of a shame because most modern multiplayer and live-service titles have crossplay support from day one, which ensures that there are enough players on a server for a consistent online experience.
However, the developers haven’t completely ruled it out and we might see it implemented in the future. It’s likely tied down to how well the title does in terms of sales and player retention. It’s also possible that their plans have changed since the interview, but there is no indication of crossplay support on the store pages, the official website, or any relevant FAQs.
SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada Release Date
SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada is coming to PC, Xbox Series S|X, and PS5 onJanuary 24, 2025. You canplay it early by pre-orderingone of the more expensive editions.
We hope that the developers consider adding crossplay support soon after launch along with optimizing the title, especially on PC. The performance during the network tests was a mixed bag with frequent stuttering and frame drops even on decent hardware.
Since this is a persistent online experience, a constant internet connection is also required, and it isn’t a single-player experience despite what the store tags might indicate.
