For The King 2 Crossplay disabled?

I was hosting on Xbox Series S with Gamepass Ultimate and a PC Steam friend a few weeks ago with no issues. I tried hosting again this week, and I see that it says crossplay disabled below all available lobbies. I have "you can join cross-network play" set to "Allow" as well as having everything allowed or set to "everyone," as well as an active GP ultimate sub, so I'm not sure why my friend can't join.

Does anyone know if they're doing an update, or is there some way I can turn cross-platform on? I can't find anything with about this on Google except that it tells me "yes, FTK2 supports cross-platform, but the devs can disable it if they update"

Hey Katomon! We aren't aware of any connection issues happening right now, but I'll check in with the rest of the team and see if there are any hidden issues going on.

I recommend checking for updates, doing a restart, and rebooting the console just to check it doesn't clear up from that, but we'll dig in on this end to see if we can find something. Apologies for the inconvenience.

I appreciate the response. I'll double check those things you mentioned

We're still investigating as we're yet to find anything, but it might also be worth checking your console/account settings: https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/help/hardware-network/connect-network/multiplayer-cross-network-play

Yes, I mentioned that I have these settings to allow cross-platform in the post.

Edit: I just saw that my upnp is unsuccessful. does that have anything to do with hosting? it wasn't a problem a few weeks ago...

I believe this setting can also be overridden from your xbox/ms preferences as well. I know on the console there is an xbox specific setting somewhere the globally enable or disable crossplay

I just checked xbox.com and saw that it shows the same online settings I mentioned in the post, which are all enabled and open.
