Can Mobile Players Cross-Play in Dead by Daylight?

There is another version of Dead by Daylight for mobile users, besides consoles and PC. The particular mobile version is available for both Android and iOS and could be purchased from the markets accordingly.

However, the cross-play feature is not available on the mobile version or other non-mobile variants. But, you can wait and join with various other players from both platforms as long as you are playing via mobile.

Connect with Friends in Dead by Daylight

The cross-progression feature made it easier for most of the players to enjoy this game. As you level up in the game, there are more chances to get in touch with loads of other cooperative players to play with.

Moreover, you can be friends with them and play the game whenever you want to do so. You can thus add them by simply going to the friend’s section in the main menu. Also, you just need a player ID to find them.

Similarly, you must have a Player ID that is also a Player’s IGN – For this, you may go to the ‘Friends+’ tab; there you will enter your ‘Friend’s ID’; so once their name shows up, now you can add them. Therefore, they will be shown in your friend’s list, and you can also see their status as well.

Also, there is a way to create a lobby where you can invite your online friends and start matching who is the best match for you by just enabling the ‘Survive with Friends’ game mode. You must make sure to choose the ‘Ready’ button to check whether they are also ready or not.

Communicating with Friends via DBD Cross-Progression

Cross-progression is indeed a welcoming asset to the game; however, it needs some improvement as well. Communication is an essential part of the gameplay if you are playing with more than one player.

Unluckily, there is no communication facility for in-game console users. However, PC users can use third-party software, like Discord which is mainly present in gaming zones these days.

So, this is something that the developers may work out for. There must be a crossplay in-game communication method so that users may not interact via other platforms.
