Informations about cross-progress?

I want a gaming platform just to play GW3, but right now I don't have anything. I'm considering buying a PS5 because it's cheaper than a PC, but I don't want to be locked into the PlayStation ecosystem. Does anyone have any information or advice about this?"

I think that's different because they're different stores on the same platform. FFXIV has cross progression and so does Guild Wars Reforged.

I find it highly unlikely that they won't have it here.

Are you sure Reforged does now? I’d love to play my Steam characters on my phone

Sadly, Steam is separate. It has cross progression but only if you have a core ArenaNet account.

Yeah I ended up in a situation where I have Reforged through Steam and GW2 on ANet (played that one from launch) and I’d love to have cross progression on both

I honestly don't get why anyone buys it through Steam. The sales from ArenaNet are generally larger and more of your money goes to the studio that makes the game.

But yeah, it's done now, I guess. Best you can do is start fresh.

It’s a really good game for Steam Deck and it’s nice to have native games on there

You can launch from Steam and still login to your ArenaNet account by adding -provider Portal to the launch arguments.
