So, I wanted to get into this F1 game, you know, the racing one. I looked it up, and found that there’s F1 22, F1 23, and the latest F1 24. I thought, “Okay, let’s see if I can play with my buddies who are on different consoles.”
First, I dug around a bit to figure out if these games are cross-platform. Turns out, they are! I found some info saying that cross-play is available in F1 22, and it’s the same deal with F1 23 and F1 24. Phew, that’s a relief. No matter if you’re on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox, or PC, you can race with your friends.
Next, I checked how to actually enable this cross-play feature. In F1 22, you had to turn it on manually, and it looked like it’s the same with F1 23 and F1 24. It’s off by default, so you gotta go into the Game Options from the main menu to switch it on. I did that, and it was pretty straightforward. It was really easy to follow these steps.

Then, I got curious about which modes support cross-play. It seems like all the competitive online modes in F1 24 let you play with folks on different platforms. I tried out a few modes, like trying to get a top spot on the Challenge Career global leaderboard and racing against a friend in Racenet Leagues. It worked like a charm!
Also, I stumbled upon this thing called F1 Fantasy. It’s like, you can compete in leagues with your friends and family throughout the season. You can join or create public or private leagues. I created a private league and invited my buddies, and it was a blast. Even though we’re on different consoles, we could all play together without any issues.
