Host a world and invite a guest
- Choose the world and who may join when loading it. Select Friends for friends-only access or Public for a world listed for the wider community.
- For a group using different platforms, enable Crossplay in the world-loading options.
- Once inside, the host opens the pause menu and shares the displayed invite code.
- The guest opens the world browser, enters that invite code, and joins the matching world. A guest can also find an eligible Friends or Public world in its corresponding list.
The join flow is complete when the guest enters the host’s world using the code or its Friends/Public listing.
For dedicated-server hosting configuration, use the separate dedicated-server guide.
Before a long expedition, have the guest join and reconnect once, and agree which world the group will continue using. Use the inventory storage guide to plan shared supplies, or the game modes guide to compare solo and co-op choices.
