Is Far Cry 6 Crossplay?

Far Cry 6 is an open-world shooter set on the stunning Caribbean island of Yara. The game immerses players in a contemporary guerrilla uprising against a repressive dictatorship. 

The storyline revolves around Anton Castillo and his son Diego, who are determined to restore their nation to its former splendor by any means necessary.

Is Far Cry 6 Crossplay?

Far Cry 6 offers a multiplayer mode similar to its predecessor, enabling players to team up and explore the vibrant Caribbean island of Yara together.

However, a common question among fans is whether Far Cry 6 supports crossplay.

Far Cry 6 offers cross-play functionality within console ecosystems, allowing players on PlayStation and Xbox (current and last generation) to collaborate in cooperative gameplay. 

However, PC players are currently not included in the cross-play program. This restricts co-op opportunities between PC gamers and their console-based friends.

How To Activate Cross-Platform Play in Far Cry 6?

To utilize cross-platform play in Far Cry 6, follow these steps to connect with your friends:

1. Ensure all players have the same version of the game installed.

2. Each player must have a Ubisoft account.

3. Use your Ubisoft account to add friends and send an invitation to the game host.

4. Accept the invitation to join the host’s session.

5. Once everyone has joined, you can start playing together.

Far Cry 6’s cooperative gameplay becomes available following the successful completion of “Operation Du or Die,” the second story mission.

This unlocks the ability to team up with a friend and experience the expansive world and narrative together.
