How to play with Xbox one, Xbox series and PS4/5 friends and no PC players

On Xbox series S, with crossplay on/enabled, I found a way to play with my Xbox One friends. Download Battlefield 2042 Xbox One edition on your Xbox Series. You will be limited to 64 player mode, but at least we can play with our Xbox one, and PS4/5 friends and no PC players.

NOTE: Can someone with PS5 confirm that the PS4 edition of 2042 can be downloaded and installed on PS5? I can't see why not, but just to be sure.

  • Can confirm PS5 users can download the PS4 version of the game on their console

    @VBALL_MVP originally only digital Gold and Ultimate editions came with dual entitlements, but i think they extended that to standard as well. Might only be for when you purchased a next gen copy - not entirely sure

    @fixatelive Yup. I downloaded both versions on my series x because of the same issue. Now I can play with Xbox one friends or my brother who is on pc

    Yes, you are correct. 

    Using PS as an example, there is the PS4 Standard Edition ($59 USD retail) and then the PS5 Standard Edition ($69 USD retail) which comes with cross-gen bundle; PS4 & PS5 games.  ....and the Gold and Ultimate Editions.  Something to note is that we're talking about the digital editions of the game here.  The physical standard PS5 edition does not include the PS4 copy of the game.
