Outriders was released on consoles at midnight, and has only just started working on PC. The game already supports cross-platform gameplay, but according to recent reports, there was a connection issue between PC and consoles at launch. Players can connect and play on different consoles without any problems, as well as on PC between Steam and EGS, but the PC-console connection will work a little later, when the developers solve the technical issues.
Despite this, many may still have questions about how cross-platform play works. In fact, in Outriders it is done very simply and will take no more than 20 seconds.
How to enable cross-platform in Outriders?
- Open settings
- Open the Gameplay section
- At the bottom of the list, make sure the “Enable Crossplay” option is enabled.
- After that, matchmaking will recruit people into the team regardless of the platform.
How do I join a friend or invite a friend from another platform in Outriders?
- In the lobby where your character is located, on the right side, click on the “Play with friends” button
- Here you can invite those who are on your friends list on your platform
- In the lower left part of the window there is a section “cross-play game codes”
- The first option generates your code so that you can send it to your friends and they can connect to you
- The second option allows you to connect to a friend using his code
As you can see, everything is more than simple.
