If you find a game called It Takes Two, you would expect to play it with a partner. Interestingly, this game goes a step further and requires you to have a friend either physically next to you or online to play at all, unlike games like Genshin Impact. Developer Hazelight has made it easier to enter the game by providing a free buddy pass that you can give to a friend so they can play with you without purchasing their own copy. However, what if you and your friend play on different consoles? It Takes Two is available on almost every platform, so you might expect it to be a cross-platform game considering its emphasis on teamwork and cooperation. Let’s find out the truth together.
If you’re also curious to know if popular multiplayer games like Stardew Valley or Minecraft are cross-platform, we can help you with that information as well!
Is It Takes Two cross-platform?
The simple answer is no, It Takes Two is not cross-platform in the way you might have hoped for. If you own the game on PlayStation, you can’t play with Xbox, Switch, or PC players in any way. The only exception is that the game can be played between PS4 and PS5 or Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles.
Moreover, there is no cross-progression in It Takes Two either. While less important due to its linear gameplay, the absence of crossplay is quite disappointing.
