Sony has responded to increasing player unhappiness at the lack of cross play between PlayStation 4 and all of the other available Fortnite platforms. As of today an "extended Fortnite cross-play beta" has started for PlayStation 4 "following a comprehensive evaluation process". The news came via the PlayStation Blog penned by Sony Interactive President John Kodera. Most notably, Kodera says that "this represents a major policy change for SIE" going forward.

The post read that it is a shift in policy so let's hope so!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

From a business standpoint it makes more sense to have your platform be more flexible. It will only increases the demand for your platform if yours is the only system which does this.
I'm willing to bet the absolute only reason they even considered this is because Fortnite's playerbase is so huge that it's actually trickling into their sales because they aren't doing cross-play, which is only because they implemented it so badly in this intense. They literally locked down accounts to PS4 - bad move on their part. No one would have complained and probably could have avoided this if they didn't lock it down.
Just another bad decision that bit them in the ass finally. Good one, consumers!

There's always something to complain about.

Far less switch than any other platform. Sort by descending in each column.
Edit: And also, Sony has the most titles on that list of the three.
Still surprised they did so mid-generation. I saw it being used to leverage consumer Goodwill in the run up to next gen release.

Any given player can learn to become more skillful with either one, but I have large doubts the skill in time to acquire targets once spotted is comparable. I've never seen a console player play with the stick sensitivity so high they can do a 180 in less than half a second.

I'n sure folks could beat Dark Souls with multiple control schemes, but that doesn't really mean anything in a comparison of two control schemes against one another competitively.
A dude beat the original Super Mario Bros blindfolded (iirc). Are we to say that's evidence folks could win a Counter-Strike tournament blindfolded against players who aren't?

This was never about how hard or easy it was for Sony. Did you forget, last generation when Microsoft was dominating sales, Sony tried to do cross play and Microsoft told them and the fans to fuck off.
Now people care about it more and there are more games allowing it, but Sony execs sure didn't forget what Microsoft did. No one wins, but it was a totally understandable position for Sony to take after that.
