Best Crossplay Co-Op Games

Our 2026 picks for best crossplay co-op games

One friend has a PC, another has a PlayStation, someone's on Xbox. Crossplay means nobody gets left out. These are strong co-op picks for mixed-platform groups; the crossplay status shown on each card comes from our catalog, and is marked unknown when we don't have evidence for it.

Tips for Your Group

  • Check each game's own crossplay details before buying — general crossplay support does not guarantee every platform pair works.
  • Use Co-Op Now's crossplay filter on the games page to find titles with a positive crossplay record.
  • Voice chat through Discord or the game's built-in system — platform party chat won't work across ecosystems.
  • Account linking (Epic, Microsoft) is often required. Have everyone set this up before game night.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does crossplay mean cross-progression too?

Not always. Crossplay means you can play together across platforms. Cross-progression (shared saves) is separate and game-specific.

Which platform pairs actually work?

Support is per-game rather than per-platform, and pairwise combinations are frequently different from a game's general "crossplay" marketing. We only claim a specific pair when the catalog records a positive crossplay status and names both platforms — every pair with enough recorded inventory has its own page: PC and Xbox, PC and PlayStation, PlayStation and Xbox, PC and Nintendo Switch, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch, and Xbox and Nintendo Switch.

How do I find friends on other platforms?

Most crossplay games use invite codes or Epic/Microsoft accounts. Check the game's friend system — it's usually platform-agnostic.
