When you play a co-op game, having an opportunity to connect to users from other platforms is really convenient. And with a new game from Arkane Studios on the horizon, you might be wondering: "Is Redfall crossplay?" The outlook is good.

Beyond answering that burning questions, we'll go over the Redfall platforms, whether there's scope for more, and why you should care about crossplay in the first place.

What is crossplay?

Crossplay is a special feature that helps you to connect with players on different platforms. If the game has this function, you'll be able to play with your friends whether they're on PC or Xbox.

Redfall is a multiplayer game, so crossplay is an important modern measure. This mechanic will help Redfall to live longer, and it would be much worse if the developers decided to separate players from different platforms.
