Multiplayer games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 offer a lot of content to unlock, and while some players prefer to tackle it solo, others take advantage of features like Crossplay to team up with friends on different platforms and share the fun.
Since the release of Modern Warfare (2019), the Call of Duty franchise has implemented a Crossplay system. However, with the launch of Black Ops 6, many players still have questions about how this feature functions, so here’s everything you need to know about Crossplay in BO6.
Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Release Date & Time
The launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is on the horizon, with Activision confirming its exact release date and time.
Is Black Ops 6 Crossplay and Cross-Platform?
Yes, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 supports Crossplay and Cross-Platform features, enabling you to team up with friends on any platform, including PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. You can play with friends regardless of their platform, whether they’re added through your console, via Battle.net on PC, or the simplest method – using their Activision ID through the in-game system.
To add friends with the latter option, simply go to the Social Tab in-game, select “Add Friends,” and enter their Activision ID. Once they accept your friend request, they’ll appear in your Black Ops 6 Friends List, allowing you to communicate and play together in-game.
How to Turn Off Crossplay in Black Ops 6
While some players may prefer to play with friends, there is an option to turn off Crossplay in Black Ops 6 if you're looking for a solo experience. However, this option is only available for console players (Xbox and PlayStation) and can't be used on PC. Check out the process to turn off Crossplay in Black Ops 6 on each platform below:
PlayStation
- Launch Black Ops 6.
- Head to the in-game Settings.
- Open the 'Account & Network' section.
- Disable the Crossplay option by switching to 'Off.'
Xbox
- Head to the console's Settings menu.
- Open the 'Online Safety & Family' section.
- Select 'Privacy & Online Safety,' then 'Xbox Privacy.'
- Scroll to 'View Details and Customize.'
- Select 'Block' within the 'You Can Join Cross-Network Play' section.
Keep in mind that turning Crossplay off in Black Ops 6 may result in longer matchmaking times and higher ping, as it limits the number of platforms the game can connect you with.
Does Black Ops 6 Have Cross-Progression?
Yes, Black Ops 6 features Cross-Progression, enabling players to progress on their accounts across their preferred platforms. To achieve this, players simply need to link their console and PC accounts to the same Activision account, allowing their progress to be synchronized.
