Is Overcooked crossplay? Multiplayer across platforms in 1, 2 and All You Can Eat
radiotimes.comThe frantic, friendship-ending multiplayer of the Overcooked series has endured, and new players remain eager to pick up one of its entries and introduce friends and family to the madness.
Playing across platforms would be one great way of getting people together for intense cooking sessions. Is Overcooked crossplay?
Whether you’re playing the 2016 original, Overcooked 2, or the All You Can Eat compilation of the two, being able to play online multiplayer across different consoles would be a godsend. No more of that “oh, I have it on Xbox, not Switch” nonsense.
Read on to find out if any of the Overcooked games have cross-platform multiplayer or not.
Overcooked All You Can Eat is crossplay enabled. Great news for those new to the series looking to jump in for the first time as All You Can Eat is a combo package of the first and second games with remastered graphics and extra content.
You can play Overcooked All You Can Eat online multiplayer with anyone, regardless of platform in any team setup. Switch players, for example, can play with those on PlayStation, who can team up with PC players, who can add a fourth player on Xbox. No matter what console you play on, online multiplayer is fully crossplay.
Save files, though, are strictly locked to your platform. This means, for example, you can’t buy the game on PS5 and purchase a PC version and keep your progress from the PS5.
As far as the two original games go, Overcooked 2 doesn’t have cross-platform multiplayer. PC players (across Epic Games Store and Steam) can play together, but that’s it. You can’t play the original standalone Overcooked 2 with one on PS5 and another on Xbox, for example.
The original Overcooked, meanwhile, doesn’t feature online multiplayer at all.
