Cross-platform gaming is increasingly popular, boosting the longevity of many titles by uniting players instead of fragmenting the community. Xbox Game Pass, a remarkably diverse gaming subscription service, offers several cross-platform titles, though not always heavily advertised. So, what are the best cross-play games currently available on Game Pass?
While Game Pass hasn't seen any major new additions recently (as of January 10, 2025), that's expected to change soon. In the interim, consider Genshin Impact, which is technically included in the service, as a noteworthy example of cross-play.
Halo Infinite and The Master Chief Collection, while featuring cross-play multiplayer, faced some initial criticism regarding its implementation. They still warrant consideration.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Cross-play support for both PvP and PvE modes.
