Crossplay

When I downloaded the disc version of battlefield 2042 it asked if I wanted to install the ps5 or the ps4 version. Since I have a ps5 I download the ps5 version after it finished it asked again and I ignored it. I now understand that I need the ps4 verson to play with my ps4 friends and it wont let me go back and download it. So the question is can I download the ps4 version or do I have to buy the game again. 

I did uninstall the game but it didnt give the opinion to download ps4 or ps5 it just gave the ps5 version. I also went to the 3 dots next to the play game button and there was not a switch versions button.

  • If you bought the game digitally you will have both version of the game and both should be available to be downloaded. @captincharbossa

  • @EA_Atic I guess what I'm trying to say is do I really have to spend another $60 to buy the digital version of the game so I can play with my PS4 friends. When I installed the disc version it gave me the option to install the PS4 or the PS5 version. I didn't know at the time I needed the PS4 version to play with my friends and now I cant go back to the screen to install either version.
