Yes, The Mound fully supports crossplay.
Yes, The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu supports full crossplay across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S. This means you can play with friends regardless of their platform. Cross-progression is limited — your progress only carries between some platforms, not all of them.
The Mound is available on the following platforms:
| PC (Steam) | PC (MS Store) | PS5 | Xbox Series | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PC (Steam) | No | No | No | |
| PC (Microsoft Store) | No | No | Yes | |
| PlayStation 5 | No | No | No | |

| Crossplay | Yes | All listed platforms can play together. |

| Split Screen / Couch Co-op | No | Online multiplayer only — no shared-screen play. |
Partially — The Mound has limited cross-progression. Your progress carries between some platforms but not others, so check the matrix above before you buy on a second platform.
Only partially, and only inside Microsoft's ecosystem. The Mound is an Xbox Play Anywhere title, which means a single purchase covers Xbox Series X|S and the PC (Microsoft Store) version, and your save carries between them. No cross-save has been announced between Steam, the Epic Games Store and PlayStation 5 — buy it there and your progress stays on that platform.
No — The Mound does not offer split screen or couch co-op. To play together, each player needs their own system running the game.
No — The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu has no split screen or local couch co-op on any platform. All two-to-four-player co-op happens online, with each explorer on their own PC, PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. To play together you invite friends into the online lobby; there is no shared-screen option.
Yes — The Mound is crossplay. The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu supports full cross-platform co-op between PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, so every pair plays together: PS5 and PC, PS5 and Xbox, and Xbox and PC. Its Xbox store listing formally declares 'Xbox cross-platform co-op', and ACE Team confirmed on Steam that the game was built with crossplay in mind. In practice a group of up to four explorers can be split across all three platforms without anyone switching hardware. One launch caveat: direct cross-platform invitations have a known bug — Nacon's workaround is to find the host's session in the online server list while a fix is developed.
The Mound is a purely cooperative first-person horror adventure for 2-4 players, set during the Conquistador era. You form a group of explorers, take on a contract, and push into a cursed jungle where monstrous creatures alter reality and staying clear-headed matters as much as staying alive. Co-op is online only — you invite friends or join a group from the lobby.
Yes. A single-player mode is listed alongside the 2-4 player online co-op, so you can take on contracts alone — although the jungle, and the game's design, clearly favour a full group.
The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu is developed by ACE Team (Zeno Clash, Rock of Ages) and published by Nacon. It launches July 15, 2026 on PC — via Steam, the Epic Games Store and the Microsoft Store — plus PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Yes. Cross-platform co-op is supported between PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S from launch day, so your group of four can mix platforms.
July 15, 2026, on PC (Steam, Epic Games Store and Microsoft Store), PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Two to four players in online co-op. The game is built around a group of explorers taking on a contract together.
Only through Xbox Play Anywhere, which shares your save between Xbox Series X|S and the PC (Microsoft Store) version. No cross-save has been announced for Steam or PlayStation 5.
Yes, a single-player mode is available, but the game is designed as a co-op experience for a group of up to four explorers.
No. Co-op is online only — there is no local or split-screen option.
Yes. The Mound — full name The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu — has full crossplay, so PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S players share the same co-op sessions. A group of up to four explorers can mix all three platforms freely.
Yes — crossplay was confirmed ahead of the July 15, 2026 launch and is available now. There is nothing to wait for: cross-platform co-op between PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S is on from day one, with no toggle to enable.
Yes. PlayStation 5 and PC (Steam, Epic or Microsoft Store) are fully crossplay in The Mound, so a PS5 player and a PC player can join the same co-op group. Xbox Series X|S connects to both as well.
Crossplay itself works, but direct cross-platform invitations have a known launch bug that Nacon has acknowledged. Until it is patched, join your friend by finding their session in the online server list instead.
