Gaming has never been more connected. A few years ago, players would be limited to only playing the games that were compatible with specific devices. This meant that console gamers stuck to the consoles, PC players stayed on PC, and mobile gaming had its own separate ecosystems. Today, cross-platform gaming has changed everything.
While some games still hold those restrictions, the era of cross-platform gaming has changed the playing field. Whether you're using a gaming smartphone, tablet, PC, or console, several popular games allow cross-platform gaming. This allows you to play with your friends regardless of the devices they have, leading to larger communities, faster matchmaking, and a much more flexible gaming experience.
In this article, we’ll look at some of the top cross-platform games available right now and how you can make the most of them with your REDMAGIC device. But first, let’s talk about why cross-platform gaming is so important in the first place.
Why Cross-Platform Gaming Matters
Gaming is for everyone. This is a simple fact of life. Video games were meant to be enjoyed by different people across the globe. In a digital age where most people stay connected online, keeping that sense of community going is a big advantage in any industry. Cross-platform gaming allows gamers to enjoy the same games and play with people from around the world without any hardware barriers.
Mobile players can join their teammates who are using a PC or console, never skipping a beat of the action. With rising hardware prices, cross-platform gaming also introduces accessibility, allowing gamers to play the same games without buying new devices.
Having a larger player pool also introduces a wider variety of opponents, meaning that you’ll enjoy a refreshing balance of skills and matches with new people each day. Naturally, different devices also mean you’d be exposed to more styles of gameplay, allowing you to learn new tricks, make new friends, and sharpen your skills across every platform. Now, let’s see which cross-platform games are the most popular today.
Top Cross-Platform Video Games
Cross-platform games come in all shapes and sizes, spanning genres and mechanics the same way they span different devices. These are some of the top cross-platform games you can sink your teeth into today:
Fortnite
Starting strong, Fortnite remains one of the best examples of a successful cross-platform game. As one of the biggest multiplayer games in the world, it features full cross-platform matchmaking, cross-progression, and support for nearly every modern device.
As you make your way through the game, you can play thousands of free developer-made, multiplayer action games like Tycoons, Deathruns, zombie survival, and more. You could also be the last one standing in a Battle Royale. Available on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Android, and cloud gaming platforms, Fortnite allows every player to compete together. Regular seasonal updates, new maps, collaborations, and limited-time events keep the experience fresh year-round.
The game's vibrant visuals and fast-paced combat benefit significantly from high refresh-rate displays. On the REDMAGIC 11S Pro, players can enjoy smoother movement, faster response times, and improved aiming precision. Whether you're dropping into Battle Royale, Zero Build mode, or creative experiences, Fortnite remains one of the most complete cross-platform experiences available.
Minecraft
Minecraft is easily one of the most played games in the world, and its cross-platform capabilities are a major reason why. As the ultimate sandbox game, Minecraft requires basically no introduction. The game uses simple but creative mechanics for endless fun. You can explore, build, survive, or just boot up the creative mode and create whatever pops into your mind. The world is infinite, and so are the possibilities.
With Minecraft, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox X/S, Xbox One, Switch, and mobile players can let their creative side run wild, exploring and surviving together across devices. The simplicity of the game’s design makes it increasingly more accessible, while its near-unlimited capabilities keep fans entertained for ages.
On a gaming tablet like the REDMAGIC Astra 2, Minecraft can be effortless with a larger screen, better visuals, and precise control management, making building, exploration, and multiplayer gameplay more immersive and exciting.
Rocket League Sideswipe
Built for the big leagues, Rocket League Sideswipe is one of the most exciting cross-platform games you could get into today, combining soccer with rocket-powered vehicles. Here, you can boost, flip, and fly through the air trying to get a giant ball into the goal.
The game supports cross-platform matchmaking across major gaming systems, allowing players to easily team up with friends or go against them on every platform. The skill ceiling is insane because while the game is easy to pick up, it’s a long way to master it.
Matches are easy to learn but difficult to master. Precision control, fast reactions, and smooth frame rates are essential for high-level play. Because games are relatively short, Rocket League is perfect for gaming sessions during commutes, breaks, or quick competitive bursts, making the wide range of high-performance mobile devices from REDMAGIC a perfect choice.
Genshin Impact
Naturally, Genshin Impact has to make the list of almost every top video game these days, and for a good reason. The wildly successful action RPG allows you to explore the fantasy world of Teyvat, visiting different lands and finding hidden treasures as you search for your lost sibling.
Encounter new characters and quests on your adventure, fighting monsters and gaining skills along the way. The game supports seamless cross-progression and cross-save functionality across multiple platforms, allowing players to continue their journey seamlessly between mobile, PC, and console devices.
Its massive open world, detailed environments, and visually rich combat also make hardware performance particularly important, which is why the higher graphics settings, smoother frame rates, and larger displays of REDMAGIC devices can dramatically improve your overall Genshin gameplay.
Roblox
Roblox is essentially a gaming platform in its own right. With access to millions of user-created experiences, players can jump into obstacle courses, racing games, role-playing adventures, shooters, and countless other genres while interacting with friends across devices.
The cross-platform functionality is probably one of Roblox's greatest strengths. Whether someone is playing on mobile, tablet, PC, console, or VR, they can often participate in the same experiences together. Its accessibility and variety make it one of the most versatile cross-platform ecosystems available today.
Albion Online
Explore a vast open world full of danger and opportunity with Albion Online. This fantasy sandbox MMORPG features a player-driven economy, classless combat system, and intense PvP battles, allowing you to grow your wealth, forge alliances, and leave your mark on the world of Albion.
From basic tools to armor, almost every item in the game is crafted by players. In Albion, you buy, sell, and trade with other players at local marketplaces, crafting rare and powerful items, then selling them to the highest bidder to grow your fortune.
Among Us
Even years after its explosive popularity, Among Us remains a favorite multiplayer party game. The concept is simple: complete tasks while identifying hidden impostors within the group. Despite its simplicity, every match creates unique social interactions and memorable moments.
Cross-platform support makes it easy for players on mobile, PC, consoles, and tablets to join the same sessions. Because it doesn't require powerful hardware, it's accessible to nearly everyone while still delivering endless entertainment.
As more games rush to support multiple platforms, choosing the right hardware becomes increasingly important for players, which is why you can always rely on REDMAGIC to have your back on every platform.
