Crossplay
- What modes can use cross-play?
- Cross-play is available in Lakeshore Online, the online multiplayer experience in Need for Speed™ Unbound.
- How do you use cross-play?
- When you first start up Lakeshore Online, you’ll receive a notification that Cross-Play is enabled. When enabled, you’ll be racing with players on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. On Xbox, you may need to enable cross-play in your account settings. Details on how to do this can be found here. When joining Lakeshore Online, invite and join other sessions across all platforms. Disabling cross-play will only match you with those in your console family (e.g. PlayStation®5 or PC).
Console players can also expect the game to run at a smooth 60 (frames-per-second) with resolution depending on what particular console you’re using.
