Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt (also known simply as ‘Bloodhunt’) is a multiplayer game that entered early access in September of last year (2021).
Bloodhunt is set in the fictional World of Darkness universe. More specifically, the game is a battle royale based on the role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade.
The products set in the World of Darkness universes are intended for adults. This is also reflected in Bloodhunt, where violence, blood, tension, and touches of terror are everywhere.
That said, currently, Bloodhunt players are unable to play with friends as they cannot add them or invite them to multiplayer matches. This seems to especially affect the recently released crossplay feature.
Bloodhunt crossplay not working correctly, players can’t add or invite friends
This month, Bloodhunt had its first stable release. The game is currently available as free-to-play for Windows OS devices and PS5 consoles, offering crossplay between both platforms.
But, many Bloodhunt players are facing issues when trying to use crossplay, as they cannot add or invite friends for multiplayer matches.
To invite or find other players, you must use a Sharkmob ID. However, currently many players are unable to find their friends via code.
He keeps getting server error when trying to join me and he cant join matches solo either. he has crossplay enabled and everything. he is able to play every other game multiplayer but this one. whats up with that? PS5 as well.

Can’t even play with my friends!
When they said crossplay I was under the impression I would be able to join my friends on other platforms like every other crossplay game in the world. Guess I was wrong. What a quick way to lose a player base. So pissed because I genuinely was looking forward to playing this with my friends.

In some cases, multiplayer invites are not working on PS5 even though all players are using the same console. This suggests that the issue could be related to the PS5 multiplayer mode, but there is no official confirmation yet.
No official acknowledgment yet
Currently, there is no official acknowledgment of the issue from Bloodhunt developers. There is also no workaround to resolve or mitigate the issue.

It now turns out that you cannot team up with players on other platforms. Hence, players on PS5 can’t add PC players to their group and vice-versa. However, crossplay works once you have entered Prague.
