Civilization 6 is one of the most popular strategy games on the market, which has expanded over the past few years thanks to various updates and its dedicated community. But is this award-winning game worth it for players looking to play with friends on different platforms? Here’s everything you need to know about Civilization 6’s cross-platform support.
Is Civilization 6 Cross-Platform Multiplayer with PC and Console?
Unfortunately, the answer to this question is no. Civilization 6 does not support cross-platform multiplayer with PC and console. So, those hoping to play with their friends on other platforms will be disappointed.
However, there is some good news. Players who own the game on Steam or Epic Games on PC can play together thanks to Unified PC play. This feature allows players to play together regardless of which game store they purchased their copy from, which is an excellent addition.
While the game is not cross-platform, players who play the game on every console, except for PS4, can also transfer their progress to PC, allowing them to pick up the game where they left off regardless of the platform. To do this, players will need to use the “Multi-Platform Cloud Save” feature, which is available for both the PC and console versions of the game.
All they need to do is create a 2k Account and enable Multi-Platform Cloud Save in the in-game settings. With this setting enabled, your progress will be carried over to different platforms as long as you’re using the same account on all platforms.
Overall, Civilization 6 does not support cross-platform multiplayer. However, it does have a few useful features. The Unified PC Play feature allows PC players to play together, and the progress transfer feature enables console players, except for PS4, to transfer their game saves to their PC. For those looking for a cross-platform experience, Civilization 6 falls short, but these features provide some level of comfort.
