How to play against friends in Madden 24
Playing Madden 24 online against your friends can be done through H2H. Select H2H (head-to-head) and then select Play a Friend. Then, a list of your online friends will appear, and you can send them an invitation. Playing with a friend is available in MUT, Quick Play, and Superstar Showdown.
Another way of playing Madden 24 with your friends is via couch co-op or local play. Just connect another controller to your platform and select Quick Play. After that, go to Play Now and select Custom Game. Four players can play via coach co-op, meaning you can enjoy Madden 24 in two versus two. Just make sure all four controllers are in sync.
Is Madden 24 cross-play?
Finally, cross-play came to Madden 24, so you can now play Head-to-Head, Madden Ultimate Team, Superstar KO, and Superstar Showdown between different platforms. That means an Xbox Series S/X user can invite PS5 players and vice versa. PC users can also enjoy Madden 24 cross-play, but this doesn’t count for PS4 and Xbox One users.
