Unable to invite friend to co op lobbies

I’m on pc and my friend on console we both have cross play on and yet I can’t invite him to lobbies but he can invite me. Yet I can invite a different console friend, any tips for this? When I invite him it says unable to send invite please try again in the bottom corner.

  • Sorry to hear you're running into this.

    There are a few workarounds you can try:

    1. If your friend is on PS5, please ask them to double-check that they are using the PS5 version of the game and not the PS4 version.

    2. Try adding your friend using their EA ID.

    3. Try this connection reset workaround:

    • Close the game.
    • Go to your network settings and disconnect from the internet.
    • Open the game and load in.
    • Once in-game, go to the online settings and make sure it shows that you are disconnected and in single-player.
    • Go back to your network settings and reconnect to the internet.
    • Give the game around 30 seconds to reconnect to the servers.
    • Change the game type to public, then try inviting your friend again or accepting their invite.

    Sometimes this can also resolve itself after a little while, so it may be worth trying again later.

    Please let us know how it goes. Thanks.

    Hi, it’s been a while since I last heard back from you. Just wanted to check whether the issue has been resolved on your side.

    As I haven’t heard back from you in some time, I’m hoping that means this issue is no longer troubling you. If you have any other questions or would like to share anything, I’d be glad to see you around again.
