Q: Does Hunt: Showdown 1896 have cross-progression?

No. There's no cross-progression: a second copy on another platform starts from scratch, skins and event progress included.

Mostly Hunt: Showdown 1896 supports crossplay between PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

PC (Steam) has no crossplay with consoles. PS5 and Xbox Series X|S players can be matched into the same lobbies when crossplay is on, but they can't invite each other or form parties, so the only way to team up across brands is to queue at the same time and hope.

The PS4 and Xbox One versions were shut down when 1896 launched in August 2024.

On PC, the crossplay version is the Steam one.

The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions don't have crossplay with other platforms.

Some platforms are marked as partial support: crossplay works with limits (for example only some modes, or an opt-in setting).
