How to use cross-play in Madden NFL 25

Madden NFL 25 has a cross-play feature that lets you compete with friends and other players from other platforms in specific online multiplayer modes.

For example, if you’re playing Madden NFL 25 on a PlayStation®5, turning on cross-play lets you compete with friends playing Madden NFL 25 on Xbox Series X|S.

Cross-play should be turned on by default when you launch the game for the first time.

To double-check your cross-play settings, follow these steps.

1. Go to the main menu and select the Settings tab.
2. Scroll through the tabs and choose Cross-Play.
3. If you want to use cross-play, make sure it’s toggled to On. You can also turn cross-play off from here.

1. Open the EA Connect menu.
2. Search for your friend using their EA ID, Xbox Live gamertag, or PlayStation™Network Online ID (PSN ID).

You can compete with other players using cross-play in these online modes.
