Anthem Executive Producer Says No Cross-Platform Play... At Launch
Anthem is a game that BioWare has been very clear will change and grow after it officially releases. In interviews the developer has taken a "never say never" approach to potential gameplay features, so make sure you keep that in mind while reading this tweet from producer Mark Darrah responding to a fan query on twitter.
Not at launch https://t.co/fzxBZz67iU

The definite news you can take from Darrah's response is clear – Anthem will not have cross-platform play at launch. Xbox players will not be playing with PC players on February 22. But, it also implies that cross-play could be in the game's future, and optimistically could potentially leap the PS4 hurdle. We have our fingers crossed, but also aren't holding our breath.
