The horror genre has seen a bit of a revival over the past few years, with several horror titles garnering lots of attention and praise. Phasmophobia is one such title that blew into the mainstream due to its unique emphasis on investigation instead of combat. The game sees you and a group of friends investigating haunted locations in search of ghost-related evidence to sell. The co-op nature of the game adds to the haunted theme park ride element of the game, keeping players hooked.

You may be looking to jump in on the game on PS5 to see what the hype is all about, maybe wanting to play the game with your friend who has it on PC. Since co-op is a big part of the game, Phasmophobia features crossplay across platforms such as PC and PS5. This means you can seamlessly hop into a co-op session with a friend regardless of their platform of choice. The crossplay element is well-made and integrated despite the fact that the game is still in Early Access. The game is currently available on PC, PlayStation 5, PSVR 2, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X.

How To Play Phasmophobia Crossplay?

Playing crossplay in Phasmophobia works just like any other session in the game. First, head up to the board in the lobby and click on ‘Multiplayer.’ This will bring up the Room Browser. Click on Create Room, select the settings you wish, and then confirm to set up the room. Next, at the top of your screen, you will see the Invite Code. Click on the Invite Code and share it with your friends. Your friends, regardless of their platform, can then enter the code and join your lobby as long as they are on the same regional server as you.

Does Phasmophoia Have Cross-Progression 

Even though Phasmophobia features seamless crossplay across several platforms, you may be saddened to learn that the game does not feature cross-progression. This means that if you buy the game on PC and PS5, you will not be able to share your levels, stats, upgrades, and more. Your two copies of the game across those platforms will be treated as unique copies and will hold unique data as a result. So, if you wish to switch platforms, keep in mind that you will be starting from scratch and will have to level up all over again.
