PC (Battle.net or Steam):
•Note: Crossplay is enabled by default on PC. There's no option to disable it within the game settings, which means PC players will always play in crossplay lobbies.
Adding Friends Across Platforms
•Activision Account: You'll need an Activision account. If you don't have one, create one in-game or via the Call of Duty website.
Add Friends:
•In Game: Go to the Social tab in the Warzone menu. Click on Add Friends. Here, you can search for friends by their Activision ID, PSN ID, Xbox Gamertag, or BattleTag (for Battle.net).
•Activision ID Format: It looks like "PlayerName#1234567". Use this to add friends from any platform.
Inviting Friends:
•Once added, you can invite them to your party from the Friends list or join their game if they're in a lobby.
Cross-Progression
•Shared Progress: Your progress, including weapons, skins, Battle Pass progression, and other items, is synchronized across all platforms where you use the same Activision account.
Pros and Cons of Crossplay
Pros:
•Larger Player Base: Faster matchmaking due to a broader pool of players.
•Play with Friends: Regardless of their platform, you can team up with friends.
•Cross-Progression: Your game progress is saved across platforms.
Cons:
•Input Disparity: Some argue there's an imbalance between console and PC players due to different control schemes (controller vs. mouse/keyboard).
•Cheating Concerns: PC players have occasionally been associated with more cheating instances, though anti-cheat systems like RICOCHET are in place.
Disabling Crossplay (If Desired)
•Note: PC players cannot disable crossplay.
•Console Players: If you want to play with only console players, you can disable crossplay from the settings as described above. However, this can lead to longer matchmaking times due to a smaller player pool.
Tips for Crossplay
•Communication: Use in-game chat or external communication tools like Discord for seamless interaction across platforms.
•Custom Matches: For a more controlled environment with friends, consider using custom matches which also support crossplay.
Additional Information
•Warzone Mobile: Currently, Warzone Mobile does not support crossplay with console or PC versions, only between Android and iOS devices. However, it does support cross-progression with other platforms through your Activision account.
•Updates: Always keep your game updated to ensure you have the latest features and security measures for cross-platform play.
