EA Reverses Course on Battlefield 6 Crossplay: No Console-Only Pool After All

EA now says turning crossplay off on console limits matchmaking to your own platform only.

Overview

  • Following earlier reports that PS5 and Xbox players would be grouped together with crossplay disabled, EA told Dexerto that this will not be the case.
  • With crossplay enabled, matchmaking prioritizes console players first but may still include PC users to fill lobbies.
  • Disabling crossplay on PS5 or Xbox restricts matchmaking to players on the same platform and blocks cross-platform parties.
  • PC players will not have an option to disable crossplay, according to the clarification.
  • Developers continue to stress aggressive anti-cheat efforts and reworked aim assist, with Battlefield 6 scheduled to launch on October 10 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
