Multiplayer
Starting Cooperative Gameplay
When online, you can select “Multiplayer” from the field menu to engage in cooperative gameplay with other players. You can use the following options to either be a host or travel to another player’s world as a guest.
Send a Distress Signal
Send a distress signal and act as a host for other players. When another player receives your signal, they will come to your world to aid you.
Search for Distress Signals
Go to another player’s world to help them as a guest. Once your destination is chosen, you will set out for their world.
Ending Cooperative Gameplay
Cooperative gameplay will end if you choose “Quit Multiplayer” from the field menu, if the host dies, if a boss is defeated, or if the journey is completed. Guests will return to their own world when cooperative gameplay ends.
