Transfer from PS4 to PC?

[curtis999c]

I haven’t been been playing for months and am tempted to do so again. I had played for about a year and a half (on PS4) and put a lot of effort in my settlement. Is there a way to transfer my Toons, their names, beacons, property, ect to the PC version of Boundless? I do realize that buying the PC version of Boundless on Steam would be required. I’m okay with that. I just don’t want to start over.

I hope that there is a way to transfer from PS4 to PC. Especially when sovereign worlds are out. I’ll be getting a PC soon and would like to keep my planet haha

I would recommend that you give your new toons on pc, all permission to save your work i know this doesn’t solve your issue but it will help until they can figure it out

I’m about to do the same when I get my laptop

[curtis999c]

Yeah I have thought of that and might do it. It would be the easier route.

Until they can figure it out it is the best solution for now

This is the response I got when I asked the same question:

@james

You’re actually asking if a PS4 character can be moved over to a PC character?

This is not something we currently support. If there was enough demand we could investigate what would be required.

I’d recommend sending a pm or something. I saw another thread awhile back asking the same so maybe there’s enough demand now.

That’s one of the reasons why I posted it publicly in case there are others who are interested in the same thing. I’m not in any hurry. But it’s nice to have a plan B in my head in case I can’t switch.

Devs can transfer beacons though (have done it from player to player). So if you can’t have the chars transferred you could possibly have all of your beacons (which would keep everything intact) to your new chars on PC. The caveat would probably be that the new chars would need enough free plots to take them all over.

Would Like to Shift Some Beacon Ownerships to Another Player (Completed)

Recently in an update the following was added to the game: Added a developer-only admin command to transfer ownership of a beacon to another character. Required for players who have lost access to the PSN accounts. Is it possible for a dev to help me shift ownership of all my beacons to another player? While we could do it manually, there’s hundreds of plots, and just changing the ownership would be so much faster. The character the other player intends to use has enough spare plots for it. …

Or I guess that I could just play on PS4 and reopen my portals. I don’t think that I am in the mood to grind for the skills on PC. But right now I’m mostly interested in the potential Creative worlds. I’m mostly only interested in building without all the fuss of the grind for materials.

potential Creative worlds

Yeah, the creative worlds would eliminate the need to grind for plots and skills in your case.
