Although crossplay may contribute to lesser matchmaking time, the primary intention is to play with your friends from other devices.

  • Open any form of game mode like Play as Survivor and click on the friend's tab.
  • In the tab, click on the add a friend icon to open the text box. Type your friend's name along with the proper tag ID. Format:xyz#123
  • Tell your friend to accept your request and start crossplaying!

Remember, you will not be able to crossplay with friends from the mobile platform as the mobile version is a separate standalone game. But, mobile users can crossplay between their iOS and Android counterparts.
