Winter Resort Simulator 3: Does It Have Crossplay? Answered

Yes. Winter Resort Simulator 3 has crossplay co-op for up to six players across PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S: its Steam page says you can “run your resort together in crossplay with up to 6 players on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S,” and publisher Aerosoft’s November 11 press release says friends can shape the same mountain together “even in cross platform with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.” The game comes out on all three platforms on December 10, 2026.

Below: which platforms play together, what co-op looks like, what is not confirmed yet (split screen, cross-progression and mods on console), and how to get ready for launch. Our Winter Resort Simulator 3 release date story has the rest of the announcement.

Which Platforms Can Play Together

All three launch platforms share one crossplay pool, according to the Steam page and Aerosoft:

  • PC: on Steam, Windows only. Steam lists no Mac or Linux version.
  • PlayStation 5: on the PlayStation Store, where you can wishlist it now.
  • Xbox Series X|S: confirmed by Aerosoft, though its announcement did not link an Xbox store page.

No version has been announced for Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PS4 or Xbox One: Aerosoft’s announcement names only PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

How Co-op Works in Winter Resort Simulator 3

Up to six players can run one resort together. The Steam page describes splitting the work: “While one of you starts up the cable cars, the others get the slopes into shape,” with the group coordinating shifts and helping wherever help is needed. Here is what the shared resort includes:

  • Shared 3D snow. The new snow system covers the whole map, and Aerosoft says it works in multiplayer, so friends can reshape, flatten and pile snow on the same mountain. Simuverse’s October 15 DevLog says the same.
  • A day and night split. The Steam page puts cable car work in the day and snow grooming at night, with extreme weather and an economy to manage across a 16 km² map.
  • Ten licensed snowcats from PistenBully and PRINOTH, including winch versions for steep slopes, and 11 cable cars from Doppelmayr and LEITNER, from a fixed-grip two-person chairlift to a 10-person gondola.
  • Missions and money. Aerosoft’s release mentions ropeway-focused missions, snowmaking and keeping the resort’s finances healthy, all of which a group can split.

Solo play is supported too: Steam lists the game as single-player as well as online co-op, and Aerosoft says you can work alone.

Online Only: No Split Screen Listed

Steam’s feature list for Winter Resort Simulator 3 shows Single-player, Multi-player, Co-op and Online Co-op, with no shared or split screen entry, and Aerosoft’s release speaks only of online co-op. Plan on one PC or console per player. If two people in one house want to groom slopes together, they will need two machines, and crossplay means those can be a PC and a console.

What Aerosoft Has Not Announced Yet

Crossplay itself is confirmed, but several details that groups ask about are not, as of November 11, 2026:

  • A crossplay toggle. Neither the Steam page nor the release says whether you can turn crossplay off or limit sessions to your own platform.
  • Cross-progression. Nothing says a resort saved on one platform can be loaded on another. Until Aerosoft says otherwise, expect your save to stay where you made it.
  • Mods on console. The Steam page says modding tools built on the Unreal Editor let you create landscapes, buildings, vehicles, cable cars and snow cannons, share them, and download community mods. It does not say whether console players get mods, or whether modded sessions can mix platforms.
  • Price and unlock time. Neither the Steam page nor the PlayStation Store lists a price or pre-order, and no unlock time has been given.

How to Get Ready Before December 10

  1. Wishlist it on the Steam store page or the PlayStation Store page, so you are told when it unlocks and when a price appears.
  2. Check your PC. Steam’s minimum specs are Windows 10, a four-core CPU at 3.8 GHz, 16 GB of RAM, an NVIDIA RTX 3060 or AMD RX 6600 XT, DirectX 12 and 50 GB of free space.
  3. Pick a controller or keyboard. Steam lists full controller support.
  4. Sort out your group. With crossplay, nobody has to switch platforms. Decide who takes which jobs: lifts by day, grooming by night.
