Survios’ Creed: Rise to Glory finally steps into the ring today, though it’s missing a key feature on Sony’s PlayStation VR (PSVR) headset.

Last week we reported that the VR boxing game was getting an online player vs player mode, allowing friends or strangers to punch each other in the face. At the time, Survios confirmed that the game would support cross-play, meaning people wearing different types of VR headsets could still play together. Following the news, Survios confirmed to UploadVR that this feature would work between the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive but not PSVR.

We’ve asked Survios for the reasoning behind this decision. “Survios has been a big supporter of VR multiplayer with all our titles and Creed: Rise to Glory is no exception. The game supports cross-platform across HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, but is not available on PSVR at this time,” Head of Studios Mike McTyre told us. “The team has been busy focusing on delivering the most polished title possible for its September 25 launch. Survios has a track record of updating its products post-launch with an emphasis on the community’s response to determine which features are the most desired. So we’d love your feedback!”

PSVR players will get a sort of trade-off in the form of an exclusive character – Young Rocky. In the main game the older version of the boxing legend will help train you, but you’ll only be able to fight him in the console version.

It’s a shame, as cross-play is a great way to help flesh out online communities for VR games, and Rift and Vive owners would no doubt benefit from having PSVR fans join them. Games like EVE: Valkyrie and Rec Room, for example, do support cross-play across all three headsets. Still, given that we were looking forward to Creed even before we knew the online mode existed it hasn’t shaken our confidence in the game too much; we still think it’s going to be a contender.

Creed: Rise to Glory hits Rift, Vive and PSVR on September 25th.
