For years, it’s been nearly a given that the Xbox, Sony, and PC versions of a game all use separate servers, with their own playerbases. While there have been a handful of exceptions, most games segment each console and PCs into their own sandboxes. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare takes things one step further, locking Steam players and Windows 10 players into separate servers as well — and Microsoft isn’t going out of its way to tell people.

Right now, Call of Duty: Infinite Remake Warfare is significantly discounted on the Windows Store compared with the Steam version. Even the Digital Deluxe version, which comes with a copy of the remade Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, is cheaper than on Steam. Activision’s FAQ, however, confirms that neither of the titles is an Xbox Play Anywhere title — and the servers for Windows Store are completely separate from the Steam version.
