Adventure games span co-op puzzle boxes, online sandboxes and cinematic solo journeys, so crossplay support depends entirely on whether the game has multiplayer at all. Co-op adventures designed to be played with a friend are the ones where crossplay is a genuine dealbreaker. Here is where each adventure title in our database stands on cross-platform play.
Editorial guide
A co-op game can support crossplay and still fail a group at the invitation screen. The exact edition, Friend’s Pass entitlement, platform subscription and account privacy settings decide whether two people can start together. Sort those details before one person buys a copy or opens a long session.
A Friend’s Pass may let one owner invite one partner, but it is not a general licence for the whole group. Check whether the game is designed for two players, supports a demo, or needs every person to own a copy.
One player owning the full game can be enough for a pass-based session. Online console play can still require the relevant platform subscription for both people.
Cross-platform co-op can require linked publisher accounts, an in-game friend list and an enabled crossplay privacy setting. “We are friends on the console” may not be enough.
Each case was checked against current developer or publisher support. They are not a ranking; together they show the purchase, account and platform details behind a successful co-op session.
Friend’s Pass lets one owner continue the full adventure with a partner after the free first chapter. It supports cross-platform co-op on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Switch 2, while original Switch has its own upgrade and GameShare conditions.
Friend’s Pass and crossplay work across PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Switch 2. A linked EA Account and the EA Friends List are needed for cross-platform invitations, and console privacy settings can block them.
Total Mayhem states that every We Were Here game supports cross-platform and cross-generation play. The practical check is the exact title your partner owns, not an assumption based on another game in the series.
Reviewed against developer and publisher support material in October 2026. Friend’s Pass terms, supported platforms and account requirements can change, so use each linked game page as the current status check.
Many co-op adventures built around two players add crossplay so friends on different platforms can team up, but it is not guaranteed. Each game page confirms the status.
No. Crossplay is only relevant when a game has online or local-online multiplayer. Solo adventures do not use it.
