In order to access multiplayer in Remnant 2, all players must have completed the tutorial mission and unlock the main World Crystal in Ward 13. You’ll know when you have, as the game will notify you when you’re eligible for co-op.

The next step is to check network settings, ensuring you do not have the Offline option selected and instead have your session as Public, meaning it’s open to anyone, or Friends Only, making it only available to friends.

After you complete the above steps, you are ready to invite friends to your session—although the process of doing so depends on what platform you are playing Remnant 2 on.

For the time being, you’ll have to stick with players on the same platform.
