How we chose the best cross-platform games

Shipping on several platforms is a promise that a game behaves the same wherever it lands, so this list judges the weakest version rather than the best one. Our reviews compare performance, control schemes and save handling between the platforms a title actually sells on, and a port that stutters or hides its settings behind a launcher costs the score. Games merely announced for other systems are deliberately left out, and so is any title reviewed on a single platform only.

Ranking on this page is deliberately plain: each title is ordered by the score our review published, highest first, and a tie goes to the more recently reviewed product so a new verdict shows up straight away. Nothing is re-weighted for a store chart, a publisher or a release window, and no title is promoted for being well known. Price and platforms are read from each row rather than restated here, because they move.
