How To Turn Crossplay Off

By the way, the game’s anti-cheat system will be updated; more details are in the article Ricochet Anti-Cheat in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Will Be Improved.
PlayStation
- Start Black Ops 6.
- Go to the game settings.
- Open the Account and Network section.
- Turn off the Crossplay option by toggling it to the “Off” position.
Xbox
- Go to the console’s settings menu.
- Open the “Internet Security and Family” section.
- Select “Online Privacy and Security,” then “Xbox Privacy.”
- Scroll to “View details and customize”.
- Select “Lock” under “You can join cross-network play”.
Remember that disabling cross-play in Black Ops 6 may result in longer player pick-up times and higher ping, as it limits the number of platforms the game can connect you to.
Is There Cross-Progression In Black Ops 6?
Yes, Black Ops 6 has cross-progression, which allows players to progress on their accounts on their preferred platforms. To achieve this, players simply need to link their console and PC accounts to the same Activision account, which will synchronize their progress.
