Does Fallout 76 have crossplay and cross-progression?

Fallout 76 has added a lot of new features since the game‘s original controversial launch, but you may still be wondering if crossplay is among those additions. Here’s everything we know.

After getting off to a rocky start, Fallout 76 has a dedicated player base and has turned into a successful MMO experience on multiple platforms.

However, many Fallout 76 players are still wondering if the game has crossplay features. So, here’s everything you need to know about whether or not Fallout 76 supports crossplay.

Is Fallout 76 cross-platform?

As of writing, Fallout 76 still does not support cross-platform play. This means that those playing on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles will only be able to play with others on the same platforms.

The Elder Scrolls Online, Bethesda’s older and more successful MMO, also doesn’t have crossplay features in the years it has been active.

Does Fallout 76 have cross-progression?

No, Fallout 76 does not have cross-progression either which means your progress in the game will be tied to the platform you’re playing on.

Will Fallout 76 ever get crossplay and cross-progression?

On April 29, 2024, Bethesda’s executive producer Todd Howard discussed Fallout 76 crossplay and cross-progression in an episode of Kinda Funny’s Gamecast.

Howard says they understand the technological difficulties caused by the original Fallout 76 design which wasn’t made with crossplay and cross-progression in mind. These features would need a significant “technical lift,” and Bethesda is looking into potential solutions to implement these features.

Howard also highlighted the distinction between the two, defining cross-progression as being more important than cross-play while also stating that all future Bethesda games will have cross-progression.
