Off The Grid has entered its early access phase, much to the delight of players preparing to drop into the action. Developed by Gunzilla Games, the studio founded by movie director Neill Blomkamp, the game is the latest take on the battle royale genre and also combines various features from extraction shooters.
A year after the developers shared details on what Off The Grid has in store, players are finally loading into matches to see how it differs from other battle royale games on the market. Cross-play has become a staple of online gaming, allowing players to join forces regardless of their platform. Here, find everything about Off The Grid cross-play including how it works.

Does Off The Grid Have Cross-Play?
With Off The Grid in early access, the game does not feature cross-play at this time. However, the developer has confirmed cross-play between Xbox and PlayStation players is on its way at a later date. The date for cross-play activation hasn't been confirmed yet. For PC players, it's bad news as they won't have the ability to play with players on a different platform.
Speaking on cross-play, Gunzilla Games CEO and co-founder Vlad Korolev said: "By enabling cross-play, we aim to create a more inclusive and connected gaming community, breaking down the barriers that previously separated players based on their choice of console."
Off The Grid Cross-Play Release Date Estimate
Considering Off The Grid is now in early access, it's tricky to determine when cross-play capabilities will arrive. There's a strong possibility the ability for console players to join forces will arrive as a future update alongside other features to enhance the experience even further.
In addition to cross-play, Gunzilla Games reveals Off The Grid features over 260 weapon combinations which is bound to expand as the game continues to evolve and leaves early access. The lack of cross-platform play may frustrate those who want to play together. The wait for cross-play shouldn't be too long as the developer continues to optimize what could be the next step forward in the battle royale genre.
Off The Grid may not have cross-play immediately, but the developers are hard at work preparing to connect console players together. As for PC, it may be a while before they're able to play with their console counterparts.
