Chivalry 2 thrives on coordinated teamwork, especially when navigating chaotic 64-player battles. While random teammates can be fun, strategizing and mastering different classes becomes much smoother with friends by your side.
The game launched with the promise of cross-platform play, allowing you to clash blades with friends on different devices, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. Initially, the feature only put you in lobbies with random players to keep wait times low. While this was a good start, you couldn’t directly party up with your friends across platforms.
The wait is finally over! A recent update introduced a beta version of cross-platform parties. This guide will detail how to utilize this long-awaited feature and cover the basics of Chivalry 2‘s crossplay functionality.
How to Invite Friends In Crossplay?
If you and your friends are playing on the same platform, playing together will be easy. But if you’re on different platforms, head to the Social Menu by pressing the Triangle button on PlayStation, Y on Xbox controller, and Options menu on PC to invite your friends.
This pops up a window containing the code to invite your friends. Reveal the code and give it to your friend, or get the code from your friend. Then, add them as Friends in the game to set up a party.
How to Switch off Crossplay in Chivalry 2?
Before you head to disabling the crossplay mode, remember that it will increase your chances of matchmaking times in the game. Now to disable the mode, head to the options menu.
Is there cross-progression?
As of 2024, there is no cross-progression. Your progress is saved locally on the chosen system and you can’t transfer progression across different systems.
Can you play Chivalry 2 in split-screen?
Unfortunately, you cannot play the game in split-screen mode. You can play with friends across different platforms, but you cannot play on the same system in split-screen mode.
Adding Crossplay Friend Failure Glitch
A lot of players face issues while adding friends across different platforms, as the game doesn’t register the change right away. You will think that the process failed, and you will be unable to add your friends for crossplay. This is normal, and the game is actually registering the change on the servers.
Simply wait for 2-3 minutes after adding a friend and let the game register the befriending process. Do NOT refresh the code while this is happening because it can interrupt the process and make matters worse. Let the game do its thing and you will see your friend appear in the friend list within 5 minutes.
