Is Far Cry 5 cross-platform?
Far Cry 5 crossplay
No Far Cry 5 doesn't have crossplay: each platform family has its own players. PS5 and PS4 players can play together; Xbox Series and Xbox One players can play together.
Online co-op only works within one platform family. PS5 and Xbox Series X|S players run the PS4 and Xbox One version (updated for 60fps in 2023), so PS5 plays with PS4 and Xbox Series X|S plays with Xbox One.
On PC, every copy runs through Ubisoft Connect, so Steam, Epic and Ubisoft Connect players can co-op once they're friends on their Ubisoft accounts. There's no split-screen.
On PC, crossplay covers Epic, Steam and Ubisoft Connect.
