Cross-play lets you and your friends play together on different platforms.

For EAS FC, cross-play is available on:

• PC
• PlayStation®
• Xbox.

You’re grouped by platform generation, which means you can only play against others in the same generation:

• current-generation consoles (PlayStation® 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC)
• old-generation consoles (PlayStation® 4 and Xbox One).

That means if you’re playing on a new-generation console, like PlayStation® 5, you can’t play against someone on an older-generation console, like PlayStation 4®, or vice versa.

Check out our video to learn more about how cross-play works in EA SPORTS FC™.

What about Nintendo Switch™?

Nintendo Switch™ doesn’t support cross-play for EAS FC, but you can check out our article on how you can play with other Nintendo Switch™ players.

Cross-play is available in the following modes within each game:

When you play EAS FC for the first time, cross-play is enabled by default.

Here’s how to turn it off or back on:

1. From the Main Menu, open EA connect. Find this option on the bottom-right side of your screen.
2. Open Social settings.
3. Select Cross-Play, then Cross-play settings.
4. Under Cross-play Enabled, toggle to No to turn cross-play off. To turn it back on, toggle to Yes.

You can also access this screen by going to Main Menu > Customise > Online Settings > Matchmaking Options.

To access it from Ultimate Team™, go to Main Menu > Ultimate Team > Settings > Matchmaking Settings.

You can’t enable or disable cross-play while in a match.

Cross-progression is available if you’re playing on the same platform.

For example, you can carry over all of your progress from PlayStation® 4 to PlayStation® 5 or Xbox One to Xbox Series X|S, but not from PlayStation® to Xbox.
