How to Invite Friends in Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2

The official site confirms Cross-Platform Co-Op and Voice Chat, so inviting friends works across Steam, Epic, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Exact in-game menu names are being verified — the flow below is the standard crossplay invite process and will be updated with verified steps.

How do you invite friends?

1. Enable crossplay in the game’s settings if it is not on by default.
2. Find your cross-platform ID — crossplay games typically show an in-game friend code or account ID in the social/friends menu, separate from your Steam/PSN/Xbox name.
3. Add your friend using that ID in the in-game friends menu (platform friends lists alone usually do not bridge platforms).
4. Open your fireteam lobby and invite them from your in-game friends list.
5. Set up voice chat — officially supported; check the audio settings for voice channel and push-to-talk options.

What if invites do not work?

• Make sure both players have crossplay enabled.
• Confirm both are on the same game version — launch-window patches can split lobbies until everyone updates.
• On Xbox, remember console online multiplayer requires a Game Pass subscription tier — see Game Pass explained.
• Restart the game after adding a new cross-platform friend if they do not appear in the list.
