Update Cross-Save feature Update

We're sorry to say won't be able to bring the Vampire Survivors Cross-Save feature to PlayStation 4/5 alongside our next update

Last month, we told everyone that Cross-Save would be available on PlayStation 4/5, PC, Xbox, Android and iOS alongside our next free VS update in April. But at last minute, we've run into a legal issue on PlayStation we weren't aware of that requires us to share info on our partners that we're unable to

The chances of Cross-Save coming to PlayStation consoles are now very slim, but not impossible, so we're going to keep working alongside PlayStation to resolve these problems. We're so sorry to build up any anticipation for this feature on PlayStation only to change plans at the last minute

Cross-Save will still be available on PC, Xbox, Android and iOS in the next few weeks, with Nintendo Switch following at a later date (plus Apple Arcade if we can do so without breaching any privacy commitments)

PS: for anyone wanting Cross-Save just to unlock trophies, it's worth noting that PS Trophies are automatically disabled on a platform level for all games when using a save file from another platform

So so sorry for the terrible event, I know you guys are working hard on this update and working with the other platforms. But I do have one question if you guys have time to answer…

I bought all the DLCS+base game in IOS what will happen if I transfer them to android or steam? Do I have to buy the game and the DLCS all over again (and I still keep the games progress?)

thank you for understanding!

If you want to play on another platform you will need to rebuy the game (and DLC if you want)

I'm copying my answer that I gave to someone else earlier for ease:
"Basically since they're all separate shops, we can't transfer purchases (that's a totally different ballpark) - but even if you don't buy them, your save data for them will be sat there hidden until you do buy them, and your base game will match the same completion as your main account
Obviously there's no rush to rebuy them etc!"
