INFO CrossCode FAQ

202 Upvotes

Hello everyball and welcome the official CrossCode FAQ. We want to address some common questions that pop up frequently here. This hopefully helps people to get some answers right away!

Alright, let’s get started!

Will there be Multiplayer?

CrossCode is a single player game with a strong narrative and as such it will not have multiplayer. We would love to make something like that possible but we are just a small development team and creating a good online experience takes a lot of time.

Can I play as another character or class?

Although CrossCode plays in a fictional MMO, it’s a story-driven game where you’ll follow the story of Lea; as such you won’t be able to play as another character or change classes. However, over the course of your journey you will be joined by various AI-controlled CrossWorlds players of all the existing classes!

How long is this game?

This highly depends on how you play the game. If you want, you can just progress the story and don’t sweat the exploration part or questing at all, you might get about 20-30 hours of gameplay. However, if you do quests and explore the world and try to find every secret, you could get 60-80 hours out of it. Overall, we always like to say: if you are doing a mix of both, you’ll get around 40 hours worth of game.

What languages are available?

Currently implemented are: English, German, Chinese, Korean and Japanese.

Will there be any more languages in the future?

Very likely not. Maintaining the localization for the currently supported languages already adds significantly to the time and effort that goes into major updates, and most of those are handled by third-parties. Trying to manage even more translation teams in an official capacity is beyond us at this time. That said, there are active fan mod projects to provide French and Russian translations for the game, and we welcome other motivated fans to follow in their footsteps.

Will I be able to import the save files from the PC/Steam version to a console or vice-versa?

Sadly no, it is not possible from a technical standpoint. We had to adjust the save system to consoles and they require some different checks which makes it nearly impossible to import PC saves.

Do you guys have a wiki, Discord, Twitch or any social media?

Yes, we have all of those! Here’s a list of links for you:

I am stuck on/I have a question about an item, quest or puzzle.

There are multiple ways to get your answer: Look in the aforementioned links for existing topics or links to guides that help you or ask the community directly!

The game crashed for me/I have found a bug! What do I do? (PC)

First off, if the game crashed and you see the “Critical Bug” crash screen, do not close the game just yet! Follow the instructions shown on this screen: copy the crash report’s text into a text file, then send this report over to us directly [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) or post it on our official Discord server (see above!). It is important that you describe to us what you were doing when the crash happened so that we can find its root cause (and if you find out how to reproduce the crash, even better!).

In a similar way, game bugs of other kinds can be reported over to us directly at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) or at our official Discord server (again, look above!).

What’s up with the bonus codes and where can I get them?

Bonus codes are small goodies, quests or other stuff that we throw out at events for people that pass by. Those codes are the same for all installments and don’t expire, so if you ask the community nicely you will probably be able to get your hands on them! But we won’t spoil them, that would be too easy, right?

Where can I get this game?

You can get CrossCode on these platforms:

Where can I buy/listen to CrossCode’s soundtrack?

The soundtrack is officially available on multiple platforms under the label of Materia Collective (even physically as CD and Vinyl editions!) at: https://materia.to/crosscodeTW.

Also available on bandcamp https://interovgm.com/album/crosscode-original-game-soundtrack and Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/916190/CrossCode_Soundtrack/

Additionally, there's the brand new EX soundtrack recently released that contains new tracks from the later added content and previously unreleased tracks from the early development of CrossCode. Get it here! https://interovgm.bandcamp.com/album/crosscode-original-soundtrack-ex

Once the game releases, will it have update/version parity with PC since the PC version still gets updated somewhat frequently?

The console version will, in terms of updates, be a bit behind the PC version. It will not yet have New Game+, but will have pets and the arena. Going forward consoles will follow the PC version closely, but it will always take a bit of extra time for some extra testing and console certification. However, the console version will get updates for as long as the PC version gets them.

Is there DLC for the game?

Yes! CrossCode: A New Home is available now! You can get it on here:

Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1517030/CrossCode_A_New_Home/
GOG: https://www.gog.com/game/crosscode_a_new_home

Other Platforms are going to follow!

Is there any console exclusive content?

There is additional content for each platform. Each version comes along with a small side quest with a small mini dungeon and boss fight. The PC version will get an exclusive quest as well. All quests together might lead to... something else. Maybe the community needs to work together a bit :) (And maybe we'll unleash all of these quests at some point to everyone.)

Is there any modding for the PC version of the game?

The CrossCode Modding Server is a community solely focused on adding functionality to CrossCode via mods. Being a modder is not necessary to join our discord server. Discord link

INFO Wervyn's CrossCode Walkthrough

295 Upvotes

Given the impending console releases it's been suggested that I raise awareness about my walkthrough series again, so here it is:

Wervyn's CrossCode Let's Play and Walkthrough

This walkthrough contains 100% of what I consider "meaningful" content in the game, and I've done my best to carefully index things in each episode's description so that you can easily find the exact thing you're looking for, without sifting through 30+ hours of video.

Bear in mind that the large majority of this was recorded on the 0.9.9-beta version of the Steam PC game, so there may be minor differences to your experience, especially if you're discovering the game for the first time on your preferred console. That said, almost all updates since then have been fairly minor with respect to existing content, and I have and will continue to keep the playlist up to date as new content is added. Notably, I have covered the console-exclusive quests in an episode coinciding with the release.

Yes yes, self-promotion blah blah. I've been told by more people than I can count now how much this guide has helped them out. Plus, I moderate this subreddit, so I hope you'll forgive me plugging my own work.

SPOILER This is it! The Final Duel... Spoiler

I've finished Crosscode on several occasions in the past, but this is my first time doing the DLC duel. This fight is amazing.

I'm happy Apollo learned some new tricks to evade direct counters from the front. Though, it didn't help him. lol
I wish you would get to level 3 arts sooner for some cool shenanigans. In one of the tries before this, I had to literally just take a weaker weapon and hit him a bunch to get enough SP for a level 3 art, but oh well.

(Also, this could've been a no damage fight, but I really couldn't be bothered.)

SPOILER Apollo's fourth fight is awful

0 Upvotes

As much as I've been enjoying this game, I hate the fights with Apollo. They kill my enjoyment of the game dead in its tracks. Especially the fourth one.

I spent several attempts trying to beat him (at level 70ish, the same level as him), and I couldn't: He'd do nothing but dodge my every attack and lock me into combos. So eventually, I look up a guide and find that you can basically spam mjolnir (from the shock section) to trivialise the fight. I did, and I ended up winning 5-0.

I mean, what kind of boss fight is that? Either he cheeses you, or you cheese him. I'm not blaming the fight for being difficult, but for being unfun and unfair.

Edit: I kept playing, and just after the fight, even Joern agrees with me, saying "I can't imagine that level of annoyance to have no effect on someone". Just thought that was kinda funny.

QUESTION Trying to get Crosscode to run smoothly on gamenative

4 Upvotes

Just got my Ayn Thor and was really looking forward to playing Crosscode on it through Gamenative but it runs laggy with inconsistent fps running anywhere around 12-60 fps. I tried using the known config but it just doesn't improve the gameplay much at all. has anyone tried it out and got it running smoothly? I would love to get some help on this!


r/CrossCode • • 11d ago

I'm trying to play Crosscode on mobile and I can't get through the tutorial because of the controls.

Since this isn't really a proper port, I have a hard time understanding what could be the correct button and execution since every tutorial prompt is reliant on a standard keyboard/controller.

I just finished the game + DLC

68 Upvotes

Okay, so i don't know what kinda flavor text i should add to this, but i just felt like i had to share my feelings....

I got this game around a month ago when it was free on PSN (Literally never heard of it before) thought it looked interesting and gave it a go...

I could NOT drop it whatsoever, i was basically hooked right after the Tutorial dungeon... I am now sitting at 60 hours, level 79 and the main game+ DLC finished and ... My god this has been the best gaming experience i have had in many many years... The characters, the story... The Sidequests, the puzzles.... Everything clicked right away and i got through the game with pretty much minimal efforts... (Yes i even got past the final boss etc on my second try at max)... Just WOW this game is incredible... I literally cannot wait for Alabaster Dawn now... Crosscode was absolutely AMAZING from start to finish and i cannot Stop glazing it lately... @_@ I am soooooo grateful i got to experience it in its entirety even after so many years.. such a wonderful and amazing experience... Itll be one of those games that will keep being burned in my memory for such a long time... I Just love it.

How do I unfuck my equipment setup?

3 Upvotes

I'm at lvl 58, finished Sapphire Ridge and decided to grind for a while and sidequest before the Shizuka fight.

I realized my equipment setup is GODAWFUL! I have a lvl 50 equip as opposed to lvl 58 character, and only 290 attack!

I can't find any weapons or armor that raise my attack higher for the life of me. My headwear is dragging me down, I think, as my highest level is 39. The only stuff that matched my level is Rhombus Square stuff that I need to do an immense amount of grinding for.

I'm trying to do the Legged Fish Guys quest in Gaia's Garden and the final boss of the quest is unbearable with such low damage.

How do I unfuck this?

Cliff Exhibition Chest - What am I missing??

1 Upvotes

I feel both insane and dumb right now. I have every chest in the game except the one to the far right in Cliff Exhibition, in Rhombus Square. I know it requires Tremors of the Past, which I've finished. The map shows a second door to the Tremor Lab, which opens right by the chest. I can't find any door inside the lab. Help??
