Does Black Ops 6 Have Cross-Play And Cross-Progression? All Details Revealed

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I can confidently say that the evolution of cross-play and cross-progression features in multiplayer games has been nothing short of revolutionary. The announcement that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will support these functionalities is not only refreshing but also a testament to the industry’s growing understanding of player needs.


As a gamer eagerly awaiting Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on October 25, I can confirm that the game will indeed support both cross-play and cross-progression. So, whether you’re playing on PC, console, or mobile, we can all join forces and enjoy seamless progression across platforms!

Here’s a more conversational way to present the information:

How does cross-play and cross-progression work?

To enjoy Black Ops 6’s online multiplayer, every player must create an Activision account and sign in. This process enables cross-platform play and ensures progress syncs seamlessly across various devices. Similar to recent Call of Duty titles, Black Ops 6 offers the exciting opportunity to team up with friends or new players on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC platforms.

As a gamer, I’m all about seamless gameplay! With Activision’s cross-progression feature, my progress in Black Ops 6 stays synced across all platforms. So whether I jump from PC to console or vice versa, my achievements and rankings follow me like a trusted companion. Just remember, it’s essential to keep using the same Activision account; otherwise, my progress won’t transfer over. Different accounts, different gaming journeys!

With your Activision ID, you can enjoy cross-play and cross-progression across different gaming systems. This ID, also known as your Display Name, is a distinct username for your Activision account, enabling you to participate in games using various platforms. Your Display Name is essentially your PlayStation Network ID, Gamertag, BattleTag, or Steam ID, with an additional hashmark and numbers added to create a unique identity for you.

How to turn off cross-play

In Black Ops 6, players have the freedom to decide if they want to compete against people from other gaming platforms or stick to their own. This choice can be made through the system settings. If cross-play is enabled, it opens up matchmaking opportunities with various platforms, whereas turning it off limits the search to the current platform only. Although restricting your search to a single platform may reduce the player pool size, locating a game in a vast game like Black Ops 6 should not be an issue for anyone, regardless of their cross-play preference.

How to change your Activision ID/Display Name

As a devoted fan, I’m always eager to personalize my gaming experience with Activision, and they make it easy! Every now and then, you can update your Activison ID or Display name using a “username change token.” Unlike other items, these tokens aren’t sold for cash but are restocked every six months, limited to two tokens at a time.
