Cross platform progression saving

It's a topic that has come up time and time again, the Devs have even asked the community about it in some survey's.

I was wondering what everybody thinks, Dev or not about the possibility of progression saving that goes across multiple platforms. I don't mean Survivor/Killer Ranks I mean player progression. I don't mind paying for characters on one platform but if I decide to switch platforms for whatever reason I am not going out of pocket to spend another £30+ for licenced characters. I understand there are free characters that can be grinded to unlocked but I find it extortionate to have to pay for things I have already unlocked on other platforms. It has mostly come to my attention as of the Mobile game release (which is even more buggy and laggy than the console versions) which I found incredibly cheeky to have to unlock all my progress again after I've spend over a year unlocking and leveling up characters. Any input is good input but if you're just here to have some sort of negative response don't even bother... You're what makes the game unplayable at the moment.

    This is something that has been mentioned before as a feature we'd like to have, but we have no definite word on when or if it will be implemented.

    I wish, I have the game on ps4 and pc, but I don't play on pc as much in fact I'm like 30 hours on it.

    But on ps4 I have over 1k hours easily and well I wish to move to pc because of how bad the FPS are on console but I don't want to restart everything, I have every teachable unlocked except deathslinger and zarina, most of my killers are prestiged, a few of my survivors are prestiged as well, I have a lot of addons, cosmetics that I bought with real money, charms etc, I just don't feel like doing everything all over again.

    Hopefully one day we will be able to transfer save datas.

    I just think that we've paid for the characters or unlocked the ones that can be unlocked and it's just extortionate to ask us to pay for them again if we want to try a new platform. I get that licences need to be paid for but when I've already paid for it on one platform... I've paid my licence, give me my characters 😂
