Today marks the beginning of the crossplay beta in Apex Legends, a feature that was confirmed to be arriving before the end of the year. PC and console players will be able to play together for the first time ever in the last few weeks of the game’s sixth season. However, first a user will have to complete a few minor tasks to play with friends, but it’s a relatively painless experience.

Step 1 – Add friends from other platforms

Friends from other platforms must be added to your friend list before queuing together for a game. Players must go to the friends menu, select “Find a Friend”, and type in a user name for any platform (PC, PS4, and Xbox One).

Step 2 – Wait for the friend request to be accepted

The friend request has to be accepted before players can jump into a cross-platform game together.

Step 3 – Add active friends to your party

One the friend request has been accepted, the player can initiate a game invite via the friends menu. Notifications will appears

Step 4 – Queue for a game!

How does Apex Legends crossplay matchmaking work?

Now that gamers know how to use Apex Legends crossplay, there’s one other matter to consider: crossplay matchmaking. While any player on any platform can play together with the crossplay beta, not everyone will be getting the same experience.

The Apex Legends crossplay announcement notes that PC players will continue to play with PC users, but console players can join a game with anyone. However, console players using a controller that party up with a PC player will be placed into the PC queue instead. This is to minimize the chances for keyboard and mouse players competing against a controller player.

Is there Apex Legends cross-progression?

Unfortunately, Apex Legends cross-progression is not yet part of the crossplay beta. This feature may debut after the game launches on Steam later in 2020.
