Randy Pitchford, Gearbox CEO has stated in a tweet that Cross Play will be coming to Borderlands 3 as soon as they can implement it after the launch. No date yet on when this will be added.
Crossplay Tweet
Some folks may be speculating that this thing tomorrow may be about cross play. Tomorrow’s thing is awesome, but *not* about cross-play. But, Good News: We are committed to supporting cross-play for Borderlands 3 with our partners as soon as practicable after launch. #talklater https://t.co/XtUzrBpySP
