Re: Is PS5 version of FC24 compatible on crossplay with PS4?

Hey @J7AISDAGOAT,

The PS5 and PS4 versions of the game would not be able to play together, however both the Ultimate Edition and Standard Edition of the game come with dual entitlement, as seen here.

If you're playing on PS5, you'll just need to use this to download the PS4 version of the game to play with friends on PS4.

  • Few questions:

    1. Do you have to pre-order to get dual entitlement?

    2. If playing on a PS4, are you able to play against/with new generation consoles xbox/ps or are you restricted to ps4/xbox1?

    Hey @5e4ef8d0d8ad9ced,

    For your first question, I've not seen anything to suggest that's the case, and it's worth noting pre-ordering was not a requirement for dual entitlement previously either.

    As far as crossplay, this is divided by each generation which is why a PS5 player would need to install and play on the PS4 version of the game. A PS4 would not be able to play with/against the Gen 5 version of the game.

  • Is the dual entitlement available on CDs and if so, how do i know which EA FC Ps5 are eligible? 

  • @EA_Mako I have a ps5 and ps4. I pre ordered and am playing on PS5 no issues. But i have no option to download to the ps4.

    I think i may have bought the wrong version and not the dual entitlement version. If thats the case, is there any way to ugrade to dual entitlement to avoid having to buy another copy for the ps4 (same account) ?
  • Perso je veux l'acheter sur PS4 en version standard et par la suite m'acheter la ps5 . Sur PS5 je serais obligé de le racheter ou pas ?

  • I am in same situation as I bought disk version and unable to download ps4 version to play clubs with friends

    Does that mean I can cross-play with my friends who play on Xbox one, if I download and play the ps4 version of FC24 on my ps5?

  • @EA_Mako I purchased the ps5 and fc24 bundle, however it only gives me the ps5 version and not an option for ps4, it is suggesting I buy the game again for £70, when I have already bought it, please help as I want to play my friends on old gen.

    I have the same problem, just got the physical version on ps5 but no option to download ps4 version at all

  • Hi, my friends have the ps5 version of fc 24 and my other friends play on ps4. They have tried to download the ps4 version on ps5 but they say it won’t let them. 

  • Hi, I have the same problem... I just got the physical version on ps5 but I cannot play with my friends that they have the ps4 !
    I cannot find any ps4 version to download...
    What we have to do ? Buy  the same game again ?
    IS THAT LOGICAL ???

  • I've bought the disc for PS4. I want to buy ps5, so is the disc compatible with PS5(New gen edition), or do i have to buy another copy. I want to buy the disc compatible version of PS5

  • Everytime I try to log into the ps4 version, it says I can't play ultimate team because I play on the PS5 version.

    any updates here?

    I have the same problem. I bought FC25 PS5 disc (standard edition), I installed it.
    When I choose 'Select version', The PS4 version has a lock icon, and it prompts me to buy it in the PS Store....
