Issue Description (Required):
I have been playing Darktide since day one on PS5 and have invested a significant amount of both time and money into my account. Over the years I purchased all the characters, multiple cosmetics for each one, completed numerous penances, collected event rewards, and gathered a large amount of resources, all of which I deeply value.
Recently I was able to build a PC and started playing there, which is where the frustration begins. Switching to PC means losing everything: my characters, my penances, my skins, my DLCs, and my event rewards that are no longer obtainable. I love this game deeply, but continuing on console is not a viable option for me. Not only because the visual and performance experience is significantly better on PC, but also because PlayStation’s monetization practices, such as the mandatory PS Plus subscription and additional fees, make it hard to justify staying there when I would rather invest that money directly into the game itself.
My question is: do you have any plans to implement cross-save between PS5 and PC in the future, or at least improve the account mirroring service that was previously offered? With all due respect, I think it is quite limited considering everything an advanced account could contain.
I can’t speak to cross-save, but the account mirroring service will return at a time post-Skitarii DLC launch when we have the capacity.
The aim right now is to improve the mirroring service in a workflow/behind-the-scenes way. We’ve also had some initial discussions regarding whether we can expand what is able to be mirrored - but it’s early days and we can’t make any promises. Currently, we mirror only safe data, and anything additional will introduce risk; and require a lot of testing/resourcing.
I’ll pass your feedback along when I next speak with the backend team and will continue to push for improvements where possible 
Thank you so much Lev. Even though you emphasize there won’t be cross-save, it is a relief to know that at least my feedback will be taken into account, and even more so knowing there is someone behind the scenes pushing the developers toward an improvement in the mirroring system. Congratulations on the excellent development journey Darktide has had, and I hope that in the future cross-save becomes a topic of conversation among the developers.
Is it possible we could get an update on the progress of cross save?
I bought Darktide on steam two months ago thinking I would be able to transfer my save data but haven’t seen any news on when that might be.
Just to clarify, it isn’t cross-save - we offer a limited mirroring service. Unfortunately, I have no ETA on the return of the service yet.
