Abstract
A system and method for facilitating cross-game content access are disclosed. A set of content may be gated by a non-player character in a first online game. Access to the set of content may be granted in the first online game upon user defeating the non-player character or a character corresponding to the non-player character in a second online game. A notification may be generated in the first online game when a user encounters the non-player character in the first online game. The notification may include information indicating that the non-player character may be defeated in the second online game. In some examples, the non-player character in the first online game may share the same entity state with the corresponding character in the second online game such that they may appear as if there were the same character in the first and second online games.
