I don't know, but based on the past history of GOG games:

1. Probably it will have its online multiplayer totally removed, or else Galaxy-only online multiplayer.

2. No chance it will have Crossplay with consoles, and almost non-existent chance it will have Crossplay with Steam.

I'd love to be wrong about all of that, but I don't think I will be.

Thats bad :=
These online parts should really be cross stores.
I get why some console players dont want multiplatform online as keyboard+mouse is superior in most games.
I'd give it a 50/50 shot at crossplay, provided online multiplayer is a thing that gets implemented into the game at all. I'd make a joke about Code Mystics needing to implement and/or fix it after the release, but I will try to remain positive toward this new Streets release.

If the above all lines up perfectly, then I say 50/50 on crossplay, with a less than favorable chance to consoles, because out of the games here on GOG that do have crossplay - not all of them work pristinely. Shadow Warrior 2 comes to mind just as much as Aliens vs. Predator, unfortunately.

No idea how solid it is but Dusk has crossplay too. It's all about if the dev wants to go that extra mile and make it work.

I couldn't care less about multiplayer in general, but more options for others are never a bad thing. At least local co-op ("Gang up with a pal or clean up the city solo.") and a versus 1on1 mode (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzeW6kuh6XA) should be a thing in the DRM-free version as well.

Yes, sorry I didn't mean for the two games I listed to seem like that was where the crossplay started and stopped as far as GOG offerings were concerned. I just used two that were relatively fresh in my mind based off of recent threads I'd read in their respective subforums.

There's definitely good examples of crossplay (AvP, etc.) where the developers and anyone relevant to making it happen put the effort into making the experience go as smoothly as possible but it should be treated more like an exception and not the standard (as frustrating as that is to write).
