    Steam Friends cross play


    OK So basically I got the pc game pass. Me n my mate wanted to play Astroneer. Now I bought mine on Microsoft n his on steam however in the xbox app where you download the games I could link my steam. But none of my steam friends appear online or even on my friends list though it says the account are linked.

    :)

    Steam Friends cross play

    cross-platform play questions


    I do not own an Xbox one or an Xbox 360, but my friend has an Xbox 360 and I have a windows 10 gaming PC. I was able to add him as a friend and send messages, but I see that a number of games do not show up in the windows 10 or Xbox one section of the store through the Xbox app or the windows store. So I have a couple of questions that I could not find any answers to through google.

    First off, would a windows 10 PC be able to play games online with an Xbox 360 user?

    Second, is it possible to do the cross-platform play if I do not own any Xbox consoles?

    Third, will the steam versions of the game work for cross-platform play? Or must it be purchased through the Xbox app or windows store? (If through the Xbox app, then would I look in the Xbox one section or the windows 10 section?) [If through the windows 10 section in the Xbox app, would the Xbox one section games be playable if bought without the console?]

    Fourth, If I am understanding correctly, older games (most on Xbox 360) will not work for the cross-platform play, and newer games (most, if not all on Xbox one) would work for cross-platform play?

    fifth, regardless of my specific situation, would GTA: V work for cross-platform play with windows 10 to Xbox live players?

    Thank you to anyone who takes their time to read and answer all my questions!
