How to crossplay in Diablo 4

A staple feature of modern gaming has made its way into Diablo 4, with players now able to take part in crossplay regardless of what system they’re playing the Blizzard ARPG on.

Over the last few years, I preferred gaming on my PlayStation 5 over playing on PC. Since I happen to be the only person in my friend group who does this, I often end up being the odd one out, so I appreciate any cross-platform titles.

Does Diablo 4 support crossplay and cross-platform? 

Yes, Diablo 4 supports crossplay and cross-platform, meaning players from all platforms can join parties together. It doesn’t matter whether you’re on PlayStation, Xbox, or PC, you’ll be able to enjoy Diablo 4 with everyone. This feature makes it easier to play with friends who game on different platforms while merging player pools.

Enabling and using crossplay in Diablo 4

Fortunately for Diablo 4 players, there is virtually no difference in inviting or joining a friend on the same platform or a completely different one. You will follow the same process regardless, which can be seen below.

• Open the main menu in Diablo 4 and click the Social tab at the top of the screen. You can also press O for faster navigation.
• Choose the Add a Friend option and then type in their Battle.Tag (a # sign followed by numbers).
• Wait for the friend to accept your request, and then you will be able to invite them or join them from your friends list.

It’s that simple to invite a friend in Diablo 4, regardless of their platform. All your friends need to have is their Battle.Tag information. If you or they don’t know where to find their Battle.Tag, you can click Add a Friend and your Battle.Tag info will be displayed. Having a Battle.Tag is a requirement to play Diablo 4, so nobody should be without one.

The only requirement to inviting any friend in Diablo 4 is you have to make it through the prologue of the game. Basically, you need to make it to the major city of Kyovashad before you can invite anyone to your party. This city is the first place where you will start seeing random online players in your world. Once you make it to Kyovashad, the world is your oyster, and you can explore it with up to three other friends.

Is there cross-progression in Diablo 4?

Yes, Diablo 4 has cross-progression. This feature allows players to start playing Diablo 4 on one platform and keep their progression when they switch to another. For this feature to work, you’ll need to link your Battle.net account with your other platform accounts. Once those two are linked, you’ll have your progression with you wherever you go.
