Chivalry 2 PS5 Confirmed With Cross-Play Between Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PS4 & PC - PlayStation Universe

Chivalry 2 is coming to PS5 and PS4 with full cross play between both PlayStation platforms and Xbox One, Xbox Series X and PC versions.

Chivalry 2 has been revealed for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 a little earlier than publisher Deep Silver intended. Originally supposed to be fully revealed later today, a now removed YouTube (spotted by the folks over at Twinfinite) appears to show that not only is the previously PC exclusive title coming to PlayStation 5, but that it will also be fully cross-play enabled too.

You can catch the screenshot at the end of the trailer which proves the cross-play bonafides of Chivalry 2:

For the uninitiated, Chivalry 2 is a online multiplayer medieval combat title which seeks to replicate the battles of old across 64 player battlefields. While we wait for the full announcement, you can catch the Chivalry 2 synopsis from the official site below:

RETURN TO THE ULTIMATE MEDIEVAL BATTLEFIELD
Chivalry 2 is a multiplayer first person slasher inspired by epic medieval movie battles. Players are thrust into the action of every iconic moment of the era – from the thunder of cavalry charges, to storms of flaming arrows, sprawling castle sieges and more.
EPIC CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE
DOMINATE MASSIVE 64-PLAYER BATTLEFIELDS
Catapults tear the earth apart as players lay siege to castles, set fire to villages and slaughter filthy peasants in the return of grand Team Objective maps. Ride to war on horseback and claim glory by your blade.
BECOME A KNIGHT OF LEGEND
ESCAPE YOUR MUNDANE LIFE
Are ye a heroic warrior, or a blood-soaked murderer? Keep fighting and gurgling out battlecries even when wounded, bleeding out and missing limbs. Enhanced player expression brings thousands of hilarious new voice-lines and deep character customization.
MASTER THE BLADE
UNLEASH YOUR INNER BEAST WITH WEIGHTY, PHYSICAL AND SATISFYING COMBAT
A revamped, faster and more fluid combat system offers an expanded range of creative choices, allowing players to perfect their playstyle. Immersive sound and effects ensure every blow lands with the sickening thud of steel sinking into bone.

i am hoping cross-play becomes standard next gen.

 

[Elder Legend]

 

[Matt_Fox]

If PC is included I hope they can keep it a level playing field without any cheating little gits!

All kinds of auto-block, aim bot, auto parry crap ruining Mordhau on PC.

 

[SleepDoctor]

I never played the first one. But Mordhau has always interested me.

 

[Umbral]

That surely can’t be a PS5 screenshot, right?

 

[Nikana]

Im gonna beat the shit outta epic store players to assert my dominance.

 

[Insane Metal]

That's a pretty harmless leak. Lol

 

[RayHell]

That surely can’t be a PS5 screenshot, right?

If you expect amazing graphics on multi-plats games, be prepared for deception.

 

[Filthy Casual]

Awesome. Got the platinum on the first one you can't beat decapitating heads.

 

[Umbral]

I don’t expect amazing but I do expect to be able to tell it’s next-gen and not just PS4 circa-2014.

 

[FranXico]

It looks like it will.

A low budget, previously PC exclusive, cross gen multiplat at that.

This was never going to be a looker. Glad it's cross platform though, good sign for that being standard next gen.

 

[FranXico]

No Man's Sky is going cross-play as of this weekend as well.

So, yeah. Signs are good.

 

[Rolla]

Once I get a PS5 it's a wrap for me and last gen games. I know some might find that controversial it's just how it is. The fact that this has cross play with last gen means I'll probably skip it. That's not a knock on the game, just preference.

Hope this is not one of the games they are showing tomorrow.

No chance.

Crossplay should exclude PC. Keep it seperate from consoles.

 

[MiguelItUp]

I'm so stoked about cross-platform becoming much more common. I can't wait! I LOVED the first Chivalry, LOVED Mordhau, and I'm sure I'll love this. Just hoping it's a good mix of the two of them.

Personally I couldn't think of anything worse. (Thisisneogaf.gif)

Most FPS' on console are ruined with M+KB mods, last thing I want is some PC nerd swinging his lead about.

I'd say it has less to do with it being multi-platform, and more to do with it being cross-gen.

yeah there's going to be an option to disable that if you don't want it

 

[Slings and Arrows]

yeah there's going to be an option to disable that if you don't want it

Where have I heard this before?

That option will be optional for an amount of time the company decides it's optional.

Cross-play is a was of saving a dying game that deserves to die. If it's good, people will play it, if not, they won't.

 

[ethomaz]

Cross-play... basically lose my interest in the title.

You got auto-aim so quit crying and let people enjoy games with their friends no matter their platform of choice.

One day, when you've finished puberty, you'll have a thing called a job. With that job you can buy things, many things, wonderful things, you and your friends could even buy every console and play together on the same platform.

They have the SSD turned down

 

[magaman]

Mordhau (spelling?) seems to be the superior offering. Console guys will at least get a chance to play this though, even though it looks a bit janky and is missing a lot of the depth that Mordhau offers.

 

[Entroyp]

Looks rough
