Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 Crossplay — Cross-Platform Co-Op Guide

Which platforms are covered?

AFE2 is available on Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Cross-platform co-op means a fireteam can mix players across these platforms — the official site confirms the feature; per-platform pairing details are being verified.

How do you set up crossplay?

1. Check crossplay settings. Open the game’s settings and make sure cross-platform play is enabled (some games default it on).
2. Find your cross-platform ID. Crossplay titles typically use an in-game friend system or account ID rather than platform friends lists.
3. Add your friends via that system — see How to Invite Friends.
4. Invite to your fireteam from the lobby, then launch the mission.
5. Voice chat is officially confirmed — check audio settings for voice channel options.

What about Xbox online multiplayer?

On Xbox, the store page notes that console online multiplayer requires an Xbox Game Pass subscription tier. That is a platform requirement for online play — it is separate from whether the game itself is in the Game Pass catalog (it is not confirmed to be). Full explanation: Is AFE2 on Game Pass?
