Legal Issue Preventing Vampire Survivors From Getting Cross-Save On PlayStation Consoles

A free update is on the way to Vampire Survivors this month, and while it will add cross-save support on PC and Xbox consoles, PlayStation owners won't be receiving the feature. According to Vampire Survivors developer Poncle, cross-save support for PS4 and PS5 won't be included in the update due to a legal issue."We're sorry to say [we] won't be able to bring the Vampire Survivors cross-save feature to PlayStation 4 and 5 alongside our next update," Poncle explained on the game's Threads account. "Last month, we told everyone that cross-save would be available on PlayStation 4 and 5, PC, Xbox, Android, and iOS alongside our next free Vampire Survivors update in April. But at [the] last minute, we've run into a legal issue on PlayStation we weren't aware of, that requires us to share info on our partners that we're unable to."While PlayStation cross-save support isn't being ruled out entirely, Poncle did add that chances of it coming to the consoles remains "slim" for now, but it is working on resolving the issue with PlayStation. The update will be coming to PC, Xbox, and PlayStation consoles first, and then to Nintendo Switch at a later date. The Apple Arcade version of Vampire Survivors might also get the update, if it can be done without breaching any privacy commitments, Poncle noted.Continue Reading at GameSpot
