Black Ops 3 will not support cross-platform play between PC Windows 10

4.6
PCDev has confirmed on Twitter that they do not have plans to support cross-platform play between Windows 10 on PC and the Xbox One platform for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3. Windows 10 is set to launch on July 29th and one of the features it includes is the ability to have cross platform play with Xbox One if developers support; one of the first titles to announce support is Fable Legends, but it seems that Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will not be supporting this new feature.

Treyarch has already confirmed beforehand that Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will be compatible with Windows 10 OS, but it seems all of it’s functionality will be limited to Steam, rather than the Xbox app on Windows 10. Another big feature of Windows 10 is cross buy between PC and Xbox One titles, but as of now, there’s no indication from Activision or Treyarch if that will be supported for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3.

234jazzy2 They are probably too lazy to patch BO3 on PC, which requires a lot more work.


The game is developed on PC, then ported to the XBone, It's how development now works with the W10 ecosystem and desktop-comparable hardware.


Somewhat true, the games are built on PC but the foundation of the coding is built for XBone. It can't be complied for PC, a very large variation of hardware. As for the "W10 ecosystem," the W10 will come with xbox marketplace for, essentially a Xbox one emulator but the patch/updates will be really different because there are alot more "ground" to cover for PC, games are easier to hack on PC.

GT-R Not to bash console players, but they'd just be absolutely stomped versus PC players. Analog sticks are just too slow for fps games. I heard that xbox might get keyboard and mouse support soon though, so that might help.



Your not really bashing anyone i'm a console player and i know that the controls would be terrible compared to the Pc's.

This. I play console and PC and FPS games handle 100x better on PC all ways have and all ways will


Played fps games at my friends house on his pic and I sucked. But I definitely can see why mouse and keyboard would be better
