  2. How do i get the crossplatform to show on my fortnite settings?

    Hey there, to access cross-platform you'll need to link your Epic account to Xbox Live. You will also have to have a friend who's not on Xbox to enable the cross-platform servers! Epic Friends - Cross Platform :)

    Fortnite cross platform

    cross platform will automatically happen as soon as a PC player joins you.

    In the EPIC game launcher on PC you van add friends. Those friends will appear as online in your game on Xbox.

    From there you can create a cross platform party.

  5. Cross platform will work on the platform not the account.

    On a Windows system you need to make sure all accounts are added to the PC and added into the FAMILY on the PC.

    On the Xbox, the account that has purchased the game will need to be signed in OR have the account that purchased the game set as HOME.

    Hello fellow gamers,

    We are aware of the issue. It was put in intentionally due to Microsoft wanting the parent account to be allowed to manage the option for cross play or not. Unfortunately, it taking longer than expected
    to add it to the settings for parents to manage. We expect an update on this situation soon.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    cross platform

    Hey thanks for bringing this question to us. I found out that people that play Fortnite cross platform are listed in Epic friends check to see if they are Epic friends. And that the cross platform play is selected before sending invites. I hope this helps
    you out.

    Cross platform will work on the platform not the account.

    On a Windows system you need to make sure all accounts are added to the PC and added into the FAMILY on the PC.

    On the Xbox, the account that has purchased the game will need to be signed in OR have the account that purchased the game set as HOME.
