Modern Warfare Beta setting lets you opt in for Cross Play

Keshav Bhat

The settings of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Beta will let users pick if they want to be part of the Cross Play testing when the Cross Play beta goes live for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

The first weekend of the Modern Warfare Beta is exclusive to PlayStation 4, starting now through September 16 at 10AM PT.

But the second weekend, which kicks off September 19 at 10AM PT, will be available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. And the second weekend will have Cross Play between all the platforms available.

Infinity Ward will be sharing more information on how Cross Play will work in Modern Warfare and the beta ahead of the Sept. 19 start date, but the settings in the PS4 version of Modern Warfare gives us just a brief first info on how the Cross Play beta testing will work.

Players will be allowed two options: enable or disable Cross Play functionality.

  • Disabled: Matchmaking only uses your current gaming platform.
  • Enabled: Allow matchmaking with other gaming platforms.

As noted during the Alpha, Infinity Ward will be using Activision and Call of Duty Profile to match friends across all three platforms. You can add friends using Activision user names, so if you want to participate in the Cross Play testing, ensure that you have linked your PSN, XBL, or Battle.net account to your Call of Duty profile.
