Looking for facts about games with cross-progression? You’ve come to the right place. We’ve prepared this handy guide that shows you which cross-platform games let you save your gaming process no matter what you’re playing from. Take a look below to learn more about games with cross-progression!
Understanding cross progression
We’ve got a handy guide that answers the question, ‘what is cross-progression?’ in plenty of detail here. But for now, it’s enough to know that games with cross-progression basically let you play a game on one platform and then continue your gameplay on another platform. This should mean that you don’t have to start again should you switch between a different kind of console or PC.
For example, you could be playing Call of Duty: Warzone on a PC and then switch your gameplay over to a PlayStation 4 without losing any of your game progression. All of this means that you won’t lose any of your unlocks or ranks despite switching the gaming platform.
How to save your game progress across platforms
The good news is that you don’t need a deep understanding of how cross-play games work to save your progress to a different kind of PC or console.
The one thing you will need is some kind of account that you can save your game data in. Such accounts are usually tied to the game’s publisher. So for Call of Duty: Warzone cross-progression, you’ll need an Activision account. For Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, you’ll need a Ubisoft account, and so on.
Such accounts are usually free, and you can get them just by providing some basic personal information. From here, you can log in into your account with your username and password and then save your game, load up old games and so on.

The Ubisoft+ cloud access feature lets you share progress between the Amazon Luna cloud gaming platform and the free Ubisoft Connect service for a range of titles, including many games in the Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, Ghost Recon, The Division and Watch Dogs franchises.
Many of these titles as well as games like Immortals Fenyx Rising also feature cross progression if you use Ubisoft+ cloud access between Google Stadia and the Ubisoft Connect PC service.
Making use of games with cross progression
Many of these games that are cross-platform will have cross-progression facilities. Here you’ll find everything from classic first-person shooters to action-adventure games and even board games like Monopoly.
Just remember that some titles like Rainbow Six Siege may let you enjoy cross-progression between the same family of consoles, such as different Xbox generations, but you won’t necessarily be able to have cross-progression between an Xbox and a PC.
