Sometimes you'll want to join your friends on different platforms when playing Black Ops 4, so here's everything you need to know about the game's crossplay status.
One of the most fun things about playing a Call of Duty game is jumping into online multiplayer with your friends. You and your friends can then cause as much mayhem as you want.
Sometimes your friends will be playing on different platforms or systems than you are, and that's where cross-play comes in. This guide will cover everything you need to know about Black Ops 4's cross-platform capabilities.
Call Of Duty:Black Ops 4 is available to play on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, but the game does not have cross-platform multiplayer . This means that you will only be able to play with other friends on the same platform.
So, if you are an Xbox user, you can only join and invite other Xbox users. The same rule applies to PlayStation and PC. Currently, it doesn't appear that the developers have any intention of introducing crossplay in Black Ops 4.
However, there are other Call of Duty games that support cross-platform multiplayer, such as Modern Warfare, Warzone, and Black Ops Cold War. So you and your friends on different platforms have alternative options.
Cross-platform multiplayer has its fair share of criticism, as PC gamers tend to have greater aim accuracy when using a mouse and keyboard than console gamers with a controller.
This is why the option to disable crossplay is in both Black Ops Cold War and Warzone. That said, it's still a lot of fun to play with your friends on other systems, and I hope Black Ops 4 implements this system someday.
