New year, new Call of Duty game. Modern Warfare 3 has a fun campaign, but you’ll likely spend most of your time on Zombies and multiplayer, and you may be wondering whether Modern Warfare 3 supports cross-platform play. Here’s what you need to know.
Is There Crossplay in Modern Warfare 3?
The short answer is yes; Modern Warfare 3 is cross-platform, which means that you can matchmake with players across PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. If you have friends on different platforms, you can still play together as long as you’ve added each other through your Activision IDs.
To add your friends, navigate to your Account Settings once you boot up the game and select the Activision Account option. From here, click on Show Details to reveal your Activision ID.
You can then share your ID with your friends so they can add you. Or, you can add them by going to the social menu and selecting Activision Friends. From here, you can then enter their ID and send them a friend request. Once you’re friends, you can invite them to your lobby or join theirs when you start a multiplayer game.
How to Turn Off Crossplay
It’s also possible to turn off crossplay if you want to avoid playing with others on different platforms. For instance, it’s possible to avoid the PC crowd if you’re playing on console. On Xbox, go to your Console Settings and set your crossplay settings to Block.
If you’re on PS5, you can turn off crossplay by booting up Modern Warfare 3 and turning it off under the Account and Network settings tab.
Unfortunately, if you’re playing on PC, you won’t be able to turn off this functionality.
That’s all you need to know about Modern Warfare 3’s cross-platform functionality. Be sure to search for Twinfinite for more tips and information on the game, including how to get into easy lobbies and the best gear perks to go for.
