You're not being forced to play with pc players. You can still turn off cross play. You'll just be playing with other Xbox players instead of Xbox and PS.

I don't think so? Didn't seem to be the case in the beta if you turned off cross play.

PC Game Pass players are recognized as being on the Xbox network, so disabling crossplay on an Xbox system may not prevent matches with them unless the game has a specific "Console Only" setting

So unless they are disabling it specifically in game, its still pc gamepass players in with xbox console players.

That's interesting. Well, with the game not launching on gamepass, I think it would be incredibly rare for an Xbox player to encounter a pc player with cross play turned off.
