Warzone Not Showing Friends Online: How To Fix The Issues?
Click to enlargeCurrently, there are some workarounds to correct your Warzone friends list not working, but it differs depending on the platform you play on.
If you are on consoles, either Xbox or PlayStation, the easiest way to bypass this issue is by inviting your friends through the console friends list. Even though they won't show up within Warzone, if they are on the same platform as you, you will be able to see and invite them to your lobby through the friends list. Similarly, you should be able to join friends who are already in a lobby through the console menus.
However, this solution only works for those playing on the same platform. If you are playing with friends on another system you should check for updates, turn off crossplay, restart the application, turn crossplay back on, reboot the game again and then check if the friends list is back. If you aren't sure on how to turn crossplay on and off check out our guide on Warzone crossplay. This isn't a fully reliable technique, but it has been reported to help.
Lastly, you can also invite friends to a Regiment within Warzone. While they might not appear online , you should be able to invite a player through their Activision account to your Regiment, which acts as a favourites list. Once a player has accepted the invite, your Regiment players will supposedly appear online enabling you to invite them online.
