In this guide, we shall go over how to turn off crossplay matchmaking in Wildgate so you can have fairer matches.

Wildgate is a PvP shooter that throws you right into space with one goal: extract the Artifact. You’re pitted against teams of Prospectors, and each Prospector brings in their own skills to the table. The Prospectors, for the most part, are balanced, and so is the PvP experience. However, if you’re a console player playing against PC players, that’s definitely not the case. If you have crossplay enabled on console, the game will queue you up against players on different platforms. If you end up against someone on PC, they have the keyboard and mouse advantage, which could be difficult to beat.
The matches start feeling unfair, and crossplay as a whole becomes a bane. If you’re someone frustrated with the crossplay experience, there is thankfully a way to turn it off. Turning off crossplay will lock you into lobbies with players on your platform, making the matchmaking a lot fairer. Our guide will go over how to turn off crossplay in Wildgate.

You can turn off crossplay in Wildgate by following the steps:
- Launch Wildgate and get into the main menu.
- Click on the settings icon on the top right to go to the settings.
- Here, navigate to the Matchmaking section.
- You will find the Crossplay setting here. You can toggle it on or off as you see fit.
- Save your settings and head back to the main menu.
Now, when you queue up, you’ll be against players based on the setting you chose. If it were off, you would only be against players from your own platform. If it were on, you’d be pitted against players from different platforms.
There are banes and boons to toggling crossplay off in Wildgate. As a console player, you won’t have to play against PC players, which results in balanced matches. However, the queue times are much longer with crossplay off. Keep this in mind when you toggle the setting.
