Yes! Monster Hunter Wilds has full crossplay across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. That means you can finally team up with friends, no matter what platform they’re on—unless they’re still clinging to their PS4, in which case, that’s a them problem.

How to Enable Crossplay in Monster Hunter Wilds

Good news: crossplay is on by default. But if you want to double-check (or turn it off because you’re feeling antisocial), here’s how:

  1. Open the Options menu.

  2. Navigate to Game Settings.

  3. Toggle Crossplay On/Off.

With crossplay on, you’ll be able to hunt with players on all platforms. Turn it off, and you’ll only match with players using the same platform as you.

Crossplay Troubleshooting

If you’re having trouble connecting to other players:

  • Check your internet – No Wi-Fi, no hunts.

  • Make sure crossplay is on – It’s easy to forget.

  • Check the Monster Hunter Wilds server status – Capcom loves a surprise maintenance.

Should You Use Crossplay?

If you like playing with friends (or just need some help taking down a tough monster), keep crossplay on. If you prefer to suffer alone, turn it off—just don’t be surprised when a monster steamrolls you.
