Want to know if FIFA 22 crossplay is being implemented into the latest version of the sports game? FIFA 22 is now in the hands of players and everyone is getting stuck into the different modes the game offers, including Division Rivals and the Career Mode. But, can you take on or team up with friends if they are on a different platform?
Playing against your friends will require a team of the best players, including the best centre backs, best strikers, and best wingers if you want to stand a chance at thrashing them, regardless of what platform you’re playing on.
However, if you’re looking to play friends on a different platform to the one you’re on, things get pretty tricky. Here’s everything you need to know about FIFA 22 crossplay, including the limitations between platforms.
FIFA 22 CrossPlay
FIFA 22 does not have complete cross-play but will be full getting crossplay soon. You are only able to play with your friends who are on the same platform as you. So, PS5 players can only play with other PS5 players. The same is true for Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PC, and Stadia players.
There is cross-gen cross-play for those who are on last-generation consoles: PS4 and Xbox One. This allows PS4 players to play with PS5 players and Xbox One players to play with Xbox Series X|S players. However, those players have to be playing the PS4 or Xbox One version of the game on their next-gen console. If you are on the next-gen version of the game, you can only play with other next-gen players in the same console family.
This is beginning to change, however, as a recent update has laid the groundwork for full crossplay via a server update. Right now, the feature is enabled in online seasons and friendlies, but will be expanded later on.
We're looking to start a FIFA 22 Cross-play test in the near future.
