Crossplay is almost essential for fighting games nowadays as it helps the community thrive. Here’s everything we know aboutUnder Night In-Birth 2crossplay.
WillUnder Night In-Birth 2have crossplay?
Currently, publisher Arc System Works and developer French-Breadhaven’t said a word onUnder Night In-Birth 2crossplay.The feature seems vital for those who want to play with as many players as possible. While theUnder Nightseriesis popular among anime fighting game fans, the community is relatively small. Crossplay would give players more of a chance to fight new competitors.
Personally, if I try to learn the game, I wouldn’t want to be saddled with high-level players because of a lacking user base. We’ll update this post if either party confirms there will becrossplay at launch or in a patch.
Do other Arc System Works games have crossplay?
In December 2022, the Arc System Works-developed gameGuilty Gear Strivereceived crossplay. It was years after the game’s initial launch. Hopefully,Under Night In-Birth 2players won’t have to wait that long now that the publisher has experience with this feature.
Something that fighting game fans may be happy with, however, is thatUnder Night In-Birth 2supportsrollback netcode. This means there will be theoretically a more solid online experience. This system predicts what your next move will be, making the transition between connection speeds and gameplay smoother. It’s not perfect, but it’s way better than a delay-based netcode that has haunted the competitive fighting game scene for many years. Finally that nightmare seems to be fading away.
