Call of Duty Modern Warfare II is available on PC, PlayStation and Xbox consoles, with fans ready to battle it out online through several available modes. Among the features featured in Infinity Ward's new game is crossplay between the different versions available, but there is no shortage of drawbacks.

As revealed by Eurogamer, on PC, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One, it is not possible to disable crossplay, whereas instead the PS5 and PS4 versions offer such an option and players are not happy about it.

@CallofDuty On MWII please add the option to turn off crossplay on Xbox. The pc players ruin the experience as they can download cheats with ease via a quick google search. #xbox #callofduty

Is it impossible to disable the crossplay?

This could be a problem for those players who prefer to play only with other users who own their version, and it is unclear why Activision removed this option from non-Playstation versions.

In any case, Xbox owners still have an alternative method of removing crossplay: with the option missing from the actual game, these users have only to manually disable it through the console itself via the privacy and security settings regarding multiplayer communication that allows them to block or enable online play with users from platforms outside of Xbox. No alternative, however, on PC, barring intervention via patch by Infinity Ward.

Among other glitches that emerged, several COD Modern Warfare II players experienced crashes once they joined a party, with developers already working to fix the problem.
