Battlefield 2042 Disable Crossplay: How to turn off cross-platform play

EA’s Battlefield 2042 enables crossplay as a standard. While activating cross-platform play helps to reduce matchmaking times, it can also put console players at a disadvantage. PlayStation and Xbox players utilizing a controller don’t stand much of a chance against PC users wielding a keyboard and mouse. But, is there an in-game Battlefield 2042 disable crossplay option? Here’s a step-by-step guide on turning off cross-platform multiplayer in BF 2042.

Here’s how to deactivate crossplay and opt-out of cross-platform multiplayer in Battlefield 2042:

  1. Launch Battlefield 2042 and reach the main menu.
  2. Follow the “Options” prompt in the bottom-left corner of the screen.
  3. In the “General” tab, navigate to the “Other” heading.
  4. Toggle the “Cross-Play” setting to “Off.”

Fortunately, it’s quick and easy to disable crossplay in Battlefield 2042 across all formats. While disabling cross-platform support can level the playing field for console users, there are also a couple of negative side effects to consider. Firstly, matchmaking times can take longer due to pulling from a smaller pool of potential players. Secondly, users won’t be able to play BF 2042 online with friends on other platforms.

When leaving crossplay on, it’s possible for friends on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC to play together. This is in the final release, keep in mind, as the open beta doesn’t feature cross-platform parties. Due to the lower player count on last-gen console hardware, PS4 and Xbox One players can play together only.

Speaking of the beta, anyone struggling to get past the main menu would do well to click here. There are also solutions to the EA server bugearly access issues, and the constant shooting glitch.
