Halo Infinite’s surprise launch earlier this week has seen a torrent of new players scrambling to experience 343 Industries’ latest shooter. And carrying on from the franchise’s debut on the platform since the launch of the PC MCC last year, players from across Xbox and PC can play together. But do they have to? Well, here’s what you need to know about how to turn off crossplay in Halo Infinite.
How to Turn Off Crossplay in Halo infinite
Put simply, you can’t turn off crossplay for Halo Infinite. There will always be a mix of PC and Xbox players in your Halo Infinite lobbies. However, if the purpose of eliminating crossplay is to remove keyboard/mouse players from your lobby, then there’s good news. There is an option to only play against people using controllers for Ranked.
Again, this won’t actually disable cross-platform multiplayer, but it does ensure that those in your lobby will be using the same control input. You may feel that this creates a more balanced play experience given that PC players on mouse and keyboard have an advantage in raw precision.
To set this up, you can change your preferred controller input in the same section of the menu as you choose solo/duo play. Note that you cannot set up Halo Infinite to only play with keyboard/mouse; the option exists only for console players to eliminate keyboard/mouse.
That’s everything there is to know about how to turn off crossplay in Halo Infinite. For more useful tips and guides on the game, be sure to check out our guide wiki. You should also see some related content below that may prove helpful.
