Is Need for Speed Unbound Cross-Platform? – Answered

Need for Speed Unbound is cross-platform, meaning you can reach against players on other consoles. This information comes directly from the EA Support section on its website.

“Cross-play lets you play with your friends no matter what platform they’re playing on. That means if you’re playing NFS Unbound on PC, you can race online against a friend playing on PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, and vice-versa.”

Cross-play in NFS Unbound is available on:

If you don’t want to use cross-platform play, you can also disable it. You can do this by going to the “Settings and Accessibility” options in the main menu. Click on “game” and then toggle “Enable Cross-Play” to off. This will then only match you with other racers on the platform you’re on.

There is no cross-progression in need for Speed Unbound, so you will only have progression on the platform you earned it on. So while you can play with people on any console or PC, you only make progress on the one you’re playing on.
