In the FAQ section, Zynga confirmed that the PC version of the game would support cross-progression, allowing players to carry over their progress from mobile and Nintendo Switch. The Steam playtests, however, will not support cross-platform or cross-progression to maintain fairness.
Once released, Star Wars: Hunters will support cross-play across PC, Switch and mobile platforms. “While the core gameplay is the same and there will be no gameplay advantages to playing on PC, it will include enhanced graphics, customizable controls, and additional visual settings to optimize your experience,” the publisher added. The PC version of the game will support both controller and mouse/keyboard inputs.
