FAQ

The things people ask first.

Is Crossfade official?: No. It's an unofficial fan project, made by the people behind Beat Fusion. Friday Night Funkin' is made by The Funkin' Crew, and Crossfade isn't affiliated with or endorsed by them.
Why does it need my copy of the game?: Crossfade doesn't include any of Friday Night Funkin's art, music or charts. It builds them from your own copy, or from The Funkin' Crew's official files, which it can download for your own use. If you enjoy it, support the original game: it's on itch.io.
Does it cost anything?: No. Crossfade is free, with no ads and nothing to buy.
Do I need an account?: Only to play online. Story mode and Freeplay work without one. Online, you sign in with your Beat Fusion account: the game shows a short code, you approve it in your browser, and your password never goes into the game.
Is it safe for my kid?: Accounts are for people 13 and older. Chat has a swear filter (on by default), and anyone can be blocked or reported from their profile. Reports go to real moderators, who can mute, suspend or remove anyone breaking the rules.
Does it run my mods?: Not yet. Crossfade plays Friday Night Funkin' itself, plus its own online mode.
What's Beat Fusion?: The rhythm game engine Crossfade runs on. See Beat Fusion.
What do I need?: Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), a few GB free, and your copy of Friday Night Funkin' or an internet connection to fetch the official files.
