Since cross-platform gaming became a standard for multiplayer games, more game developers and publishers have updated their games to standards. This includes EA Sports, which implemented the crossplay in 2022, and eFootball, which implemented it in 2021, about a year after eFootball was officially released.
eFootball crossplay allows players to play with and against other players on multiple platforms and across generations. This includes PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox One series X, PC and even Mobile.
Yes, Mobile Players can play against other players with eFootball crossplay.
Konami’s eFootball uses the Unreal Engine 4. While the gameplay and physics are the same across all platforms except mobile, the graphics look significantly better on current hardware and play much smoother. However, this is not a significant advantage for players with the latest hardware. Konami has made it part of its goal to ensure consistency in gameplay across all platforms except for mobile, which may be due to hardware restrictions.
As for the future of eFootball, Konami has made it known that it will continue to support and update the game as a live service. Although, as of now, EA Sport has the majority of the football player base with EAFC and eFootball is still very relevant, and with the game being free to play and having a significant player base, it is safe to say the game is in a good place.
