In the fast-paced, team-oriented world of THE FINALS, where competition is intense and teamwork is key, it's only natural that you'd want to play with your friends, no matter what platform any of you are on. Thankfully, THE FINALS offers crossplay between PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S!

The crossplay feature is enabled by default in THE FINALS. While this is generally a beloved feature, there are also a lot of players who prefer to focus on their respective platform. Thankfully, you're able to turn it off in the settings menu.

Unfortunately, there's a bug for PC players that stops you from turning off the crossplay feature. However, Embark Studios already addressed the issue and is working on a solution.
