I have not been able to connect my PC and Xbox through crossplay. I have tried sending friend requests but it does not work. Can anyone help?

Hey @DaPabs789, Are you trying to invite two accounts that are connected to the same EA Account? If so, I'm afraid that wouldn't work. You aren't able to invite accounts that are linked to the same EA Account for cross-play. /Kent

@DaPabs789 I'm having the same issue, also when I'm searching for an xbox user, I still see the gamepad icon and not the custom xbox icon near the name

So if my son is on PS4 and I am on XBox the game works with us being on the same EA account. But if my son wants to play Apex with me he can’t because we have the same EA account ? If I have that right what is the fix, and will progression and Apex accounts be lost there is a lot of money and time spent on each account would hate to loose anything.

@EA_Kent Will this be changed. I have invested money into both accounts and want to be able to play with my son. Is there a reason this is not allowed? I'm left feeling very disappointed.

I know same here have spent tons of money on both consoles on Apex legends. It would be highly jacked up that I can’t play with my son.

@EA_Kent Please address the concerns of parents. All we want to do is game with our children. PLEASE I don’t enjoy Fortnite mind you I appreciate what they have accomplished and what they have brought to gaming, BUT I hate playing that game. Crossplay was something me and my sons were so looking forward too. Again please provide a fix for this that does not erase money spent and achievements.

@EA_Kent what you said did not help. My brother is on xbox. When he looks up my name it shows it. though when i search it it does not show it. when he sends me a friend request it does not go through. We are not connected in any way. I play through pc.
