Can you disable crossplay in CoD BO6? Latest news
Disabling crossplay can improve the Call of Duty experience.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available to play right now.
As with most triple-A releases with an online focus, cross-platform play is a key component that connects all platforms together.
Call of Duty was one of the first franchises to feature crossplay capabilities in 2019's Modern Warfare. Now, those loading into Black Ops 6 want to know if the feature is still there.
So, does Black Ops 6 have crossplay? Keep on reading for all the latest intel.
Is CoD BO6 crossplay?
Yes, Black Ops 6 does feature crossplay.
This means Xbox, PlayStation and PC players can all join the same matches in Multiplayer and Zombies modes.
This is great news if you know players on other platforms and want to party up together.
How do you disable crossplay in CoD BO6?
The exact process on how to disable crossplay in Black Ops 6 hasn't appeared yet.
However, we expect the process to be similar to how players can switch off crossplay in Call of Duty: Warzone - through the in-game settings.
Here's a closer look at the expected process:
- Open Black Ops 6 and open the Options tab
- Scroll over to the Settings menu
- Find the Account & Network section and select it
- Search for the crossplay slider and switch it off.
PC players don't have the ability to switch off crossplay, meaning they're forced to play alongside console users whether they like it or not.
How do you disable crossplay in CoD BO6 on Xbox?
Turning off crossplay on Xbox consoles is likely a different process altogether, as there's been no way of players disabling the feature from within the game in the past.
Instead, Xbox players should follow these steps:
- Head to the Xbox homepage
- Open General Settings then select the Online Safety and Family section
- Open Privacy and Online Safety
- Select Xbox Privacy then View Details and Customise
- Open the Communication and Multiplayer option
- Select Cross-network Play
- Then click the Block button to stop crossplay
This setting disables crossplay for all games, not just Black Ops 6. Remember to switch it back on before dropping into some Fortnite.
