What cross-play update did Absolum get?

Question

What Absolum added

Absolum received an update adding full cross-play support across all platforms. The game is a fantasy roguelike beat-'em-up with side-scrolling combat, and the update removes the platform barriers that previously limited who could play together.

Why it matters

For co-op and competitive communities, cross-play often determines:

whether matchmaking pools are large enough,
how quickly players can find groups,
and whether friends on different consoles/PC can play in the same sessions.

By rolling cross-play out comprehensively, Absolum is effectively expanding its active player base and improving the social layer of the game.

Where the update lands

Coverage frames the feature as spanning PS5, PS4, and Switch 2. That implies players on those ecosystems can connect using the same cross-play functionality rather than being limited to a single platform’s population.

Bottom line

Absolum’s latest patch enables full cross-play across platforms, a change aimed at improving access to co-op and keeping matchmaking healthier as the game grows.
