Battlefield 6 Players Banned for Disabling Crossplay
Players on PC can disable crossplay in Battlefield 6, but sharing this tweak might get you banned from Steam forums.
The Dagger 1-3 squad—Carter, Gecko, Lopez, and Murphy—takes cover against a mossy wall in Battlefield 6.
A Reddit thread brought attention to a player banned from the Battlefield 6 Steam community for sharing how to disable crossplay. The ban notice looks legitimate, and the method works.
Unlike console versions, Battlefield 6 on PC doesn’t have a built-in crossplay toggle. This might be due to expected lower PC player numbers, but it’s odd that PC players can’t limit themselves to their own pool.
PC gamers often tweak config files to improve their experience. In Battlefield 6, disabling crossplay is straightforward—just editing a config file to mimic a feature console players already have.
The ban seems like a moderator’s mistake, as another post with the same instructions remains untouched. Here’s how to disable crossplay: Edit the PROFSAVE_profile file in the Battlefield 6 settings folder, add “Gstgameplay.CrossPlayEnable 0”, and save. That’s it!
