Concord crossplay is a feature for Firewalk's hero shooter, letting those on PS5 and PC scrap in frantic multiplayer matches. This means the game has a much larger pool of players, and you'll be able to play with your friends, even if you're not on the the same platform. The feature is automatically on for all players, but there are some essential details you may need to know about crossplay in Concord, so I've explained it all below.
How to use crossplay in Concord
Concord crossplay will be activated by default when you start the game, so you don't need to do anything further to connect with both PS5 and PC players. However, if you decide you'd prefer not to use this cross-platform connectivity – perhaps you consider keyboard and mouse players to have an advantage over those using controllers – then it's also possible to disable crossplay at any time by visiting the in-game settings through the options menu.
It should be noted that a PlayStation Plus subscription is required to play Concord on PS5. For Steam users, you'll need a PSN account to play Concord on PC, as this is used to synchronise your progress for cross-progression and matchmake players through crossplay, so be prepared to set an account up if you don't already have one, though you won't need a PS+ subscription.
