The one thing most gamers around the world have always wanted could be on the verge of finally happening. What is that you ask? It's all about Xbox players playing multiplayer video games with their PlayStation and Nintendo counterparts.

For quite some time, Microsoft has been pushing the cross-platform play initiative between Xbox One and PC,  Quantum Break is one of those titles, but the company is now taking this one step further. The plan is to have cross-network play between Microsoft devices and other devices from competitors.

Obviously, Windows 10 will support this feature, but it is up to Sony to decide whether or not it wants to get involved because Microsoft has issued an open invitation to all. Furthermore, we understand that Rocket League will become the first video game to support this new and exciting feature.

"We're thrilled to confirm that Psyonix's Rocket League will be one of the first games to take advantage of this new capability by enabling cross-network play between Xbox One and PC players, with an open invitation for other networks to participate as well," according to Microsoft.

The way how video games are played could be changed for good should Sony and others stand behind Microsoft's plan. Just imagine all gamers playing Call of Duty together, and it doesn't matter which platform they are using.

Playing video games could then end up being more fun than ever because gamers would have more options.

The only problem we see is with the PC platform. We doubt that all games will be allowed to connect with consoles due to the keyboard and mouse being more superior than a controller. PC gamers might only be able to play in co-op missions instead of competitive multiplayer matches.

Microsoft must be working on a way to fix this issue to make sure the PC platform gets to experience the full brunt of this new cross-network feature.

Only time will tell if this plan by Microsoft takes off. We don't see why it shouldn't, but seeing as it is always hard to get big companies to work alongside each other, things may take some time. That won't stop us from being hopeful.
