Is there any hope left for cross-progression between Xbox and Steam at this point?
I apologize, as I'm certain this topic has already been discussed to death. Most of the cross-progression related news I've seen is a few months old, so I figured I might as well ask directly if there've been any updates in regard to Xbox and Steam cross-progression.
The reason I'm itching for it so badly is because I have Demogorgon, Steve, and Nancy on Xbox, but most of my characters are on Steam. I only really started playing DBD this year, and at that point, I had moved on from my old dusty Xbox One and never got a chance to buy Demo on Steam. The Xbox Nightmare Edition of DBD was given to me as a gift long after Demo was removed, and Steam keys are beyond expensive. It's frustrating to constantly switch back and forth between two platforms, with one of them having very little in the way of progress and perks (on top of having performance issues), just to play one of my main killers who I can't buy anywhere else. And because the DLC is on the disc, I fear that the disc will one day stop working and I'll lose my favorite killer forever. Although I doubt Demo would even transfer to Steam if the DLC is on the disc, anyway. Still, I would be more than happy to merge my accounts and, at the very least, have all my characters and cosmetics when I play Xbox.

Performance issues? With DBD on an Xbox1? No wayyyyyyy?!?!😜
Sadly there's no update for this Cross Progression question. They know it's badly wanted, but they and Microsoft & Sony all have to agree on a deal to make it happen. They've always stated they continue to work on it.

Well I think we can just hope St dlc comes back eventually when netflix managers use some common sense. Then I would get to buy nancy and all her cosmetics. Also would buy cosmetics for my steve and demopuppy. I don't see cross progression happening. Sony or microsoft won't want to lose players to pc.

Yeah, I figured as much sadly. Performance issues on Xbox One are not surprising, especially with my console being so old. It's one of the reasons I switched to PC. The expense of the Xbox Live membership + a new console every few years are some other ones. It's a shame cross-progression doesn't seem likely in the near future due to how messy the licensing would be with Sony and Microsoft, but it happens. I suppose I'll just power through the suffering on Xbone with Demo and default perks until the console dies and I'm forced to buy a newer one, lol

Unfortunately it looks like waiting to see what happens is all we can do :( I don't ever see Netflix applying common sense in any capacity, but it never hurts to have a little hope.

it could be made to not be their choice if behaviour uses a system outside of the platforms to keep progression.
like "you must log in to your behaviour account". and progress is saved on the behaviour account. (you might still need to buy the game and dlcs for the platforms)
