MOBA games tend to be some of the best PC games , but they tend not to work on consoles. However, much like Valorant and Path of Exile 2 , Smite 2 is embracing the console space. Featuring a huge cast of legendary Gods and other legendary figures, this is one of the most approachable games in the genre. The first game is on our list of all cross-platform games , but can the same be said about its free-to-play sequel? Here’s everything you need to know about Smite 2’s cross-platform support.

Even before Smite 2 left its early access period, we knew the good news that it supports full crossplay support on all platforms. Currently, that includes PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC. While the first game was available on the Switch, it seems this sequel is a bit too big for that console, but there is a good chance it comes to the Switch 2 when that eventually releases.

In addition to full crossplay, Smite 2 also allows for full cross-progression. Because the game is completely free, that makes it as easy as can be to pick up the game on console, jump over to PC, and then back again depending on what you have available. It is also a great Steam Deck game so you can still play it on the go. All you need to do is make sure all your accounts are linked on the Smite 2 website and you can carry all your progress with you.

Helldivers 2 now lets players customize their favorite weapons
Two soldiers hug in front of an explosion in Helldivers 2.

Helldivers 2 received an unexpected update with new weapon customizations and more enemy types, just in time for the Illuminate to come roaring out of a black hole with their sights set on Super Earth. "In a sudden, completely unprovoked offensive, they emerged. Nothing is safe, not even the heart of democracy itself," the announcer shouts, exaggerated gravitas in his voice. "Liberty's darkest hour approaches. Super Earth needs you."

The update lands with all of the tongue-in-cheek humor that Helldivers 2 brings to the table, but it also introduces new Illuminate enemy types, including the jetfighter-like Stingray and the Crescent Overseer, a foe that can launch attacks over cover. Then there's the Fleshmob, described as "a Frankenstein's monster of Voteless parts" that is reminiscent of Flood Carriers from Halo. The PlayStation Blog post hints at other, as-yet-unannounced enemies.

Is Virtua Fighter 5 REVO cross-platform

In the pantheon of the best fighting games, Virtua Fighter has fallen out of the spotlight in recent years. Thankfully, the upcoming video game Virtua Fighter 6 is poised to bring the series back to its former glory, but before that, we got a new version of the previous latest entry called Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. While it isn't quite a remake, this latest version is the definitive way to play this technical fighter. That said, the audience for this series is still smaller than most, so your ability to get online matches might be a concern. If you're curious whether or not this new version was given cross-platform support to increase the pool of players you can compete against, we'll give you the full breakdown.

The new vault hunters in Borderlands 4.

There are only a handful of games we can confidently say are even close to being as fun to play in co-op as the Borderlands games. Some like Split Fiction come to mind, but there's something special about getting your pals together and running around Pandora as your favorite Vault Hunters. Borderlands 4 is the newest entry in the franchise that began in 2009, and the big question isn't about the story, the guns, or the characters, but cross-platform support. Normally, we would just assume this game would have it, but Borderlands 3 didn't launch with any cross-platform support and only got it after several updates. We traveled to Pandora and back to bring you the definitive answer on whether Borderlands 4 is cross-platform or not.
