One of the best aspects of Soulslike games has always been the “jolly cooperation.” Being able to play them with your friends not only makes the adventure that much more exciting, it also helps you tackle challenging bosses with ease. Therefore, Remnant 2 has this multiplayer feature that allows you to invite up to two friends into your game. Let’s take a quick look at how to invite friends to Remnant 2.
Before you start your multiplayer adventure with your friends, keep in mind that Remnant 2 upscales the difficulty during co-op. However, co-op still feels more enjoyable in the game due to various team support skills. Besides, playing with friends is always incentivised due to the random nature of the worlds in Remnant 2. So, without further ado, let’s jump in and see how you can co-op with your friends in Remnant 2.

Finish the tutorial mission
The first step to take in order to invite friends to your game is to ensure you and your friends have completed the tutorial mission. Luckily, this is a walk in the park and takes roughly 10-15 mins. You simply need to unlock the main World Crystal in Ward 13, and you’re good to move on from there. The game will notify you when your world is eligible for co-op gameplay as well.
Change your network settings
Once you’re done with the tutorial, make sure your network settings are correct. In the main menu, you can see your game’s network set to one of the three available settings.
- Public
- Friends Only
- Offline
You need to set your game to either Public or Friends Only in order to invite friends. As the names imply, the Public setting would allow you to invite random people into the game, while Friends Only restricts the access of your lobby to the players in your friend list.
