How does crossplay work in Battlefield REDSEC?
Turning on crossplay in Battlefield REDSEC opens up matchmaking between PS5, Xbox, and PC players. Turning it off means you’ll only be matched with the platform you’re playing on, so PS5 with PS5, and Xbox with Xbox. There is currently no option for PC players to turn off crossplay. According to DICE producer Alexia Christofi on X, crossplay works as console-first when turned on, but will still match you with other platforms if needed:
Eyy not quite, it’s crossplay on or off – but if crossplay is on we treat it as console preferred crossplay, so we’ll try and matchmake you with others playing on console before falling back to full crossplay if we can’t find you a match with only/mostly console players.August 2, 2025
