Re: Why can't PS5/Series X/S join in PS4/Xbox servers?

@1Hairy-Gorilla According to the description on Amazon, for next gen Xbox to play with old gen Xbox, they need the crossplay bundle.

If you are on old gen but playing with new gen, the new gen have the crossplay bundle.

Exactly the same as how BF2042 is going to work.

@Trokey66 Not sure if its me. CoD next gen or last game is the SAME game other than pretty graphics there is nothing stopping either player from playing against each other.
Anyways Bf2042 is not the same in this regard, and would like to know why next gen needs two keys instead of being able to hop onto 64 player modes with last gen?
You mind linking where it says that on Amazon?
"The game’s debut follows the recent release of Microsoft’s next-gen consoles which have several new upgrades.
They come with an enhanced frame rate, ray-tracing and quicker loading speeds." Thats all the next gen coldwar gets you not splitting the playerbase :P
Just to be crystal clear Not sure why PS5 isn't list but its the same for that platform aswell.
"Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will also support cross-play with PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and Xbox Series X users"

@1Hairy-Gorilla Do old gen consoles support 'enhanced frame rate, ray-tracing and quicker loading speeds'?

@Trokey66 probably means you can play the xbox one version on the series x/s. not really cross gen.

@TheGM86 yes and no. It is in the sense that old and new can play old together but old can't play new.
