If you’re wondering whether you can play Wuthering Waves—one most-anticipated RPGs this year—with friends, you aren’t the only one.
With a beautiful open world, engaging combat mechanics, and lots of magic, Wuthering Waves has plenty to keep the huge community of RPG fans hooked. We’ve been looking forward to it, but is it possible to play co-op multiplayer? We have the answer.
Can you play Wuthering Waves multiplayer?
Yes, you can play Wuthering Waves in multiplayer mode. You can create parties of up to three players and complete missions or defeat bosses together, making the experience much more social. Alternatively, you can also play the game solo if you wish to.
Interestingly, you can also play in a party of two, but the host of the party gets to pick two characters from the roster.
How to play Wuthering Waves with friends
Before you can play co-op multiplayer with your friends in Wuthering Waves, you must first unlock a few things. You need to reach Union Level 22, which is a sizeable grind. Once you reach the Union Level 22, a prompt appears saying you can start co-op in certain instances.
To play Wuthering Waves with friends after meeting the criteria, here’s what you need to do:
- Select the World icon at the top-left of the minimap from the lobby. Here, you can see nearby parties available for you to join. Tap Apply to Join to join a party of your choice.
- To join a friend’s party, you have to add them to your list first. Go to the Terminal menu (the last button on the top-right tab) and select Friends. Select Add Friends and enter their ID to add them. Once they add you back, you can send a co-op request to them.
- All players need to be over Union Level 22 to play together, so if you have a friend below that level, you won’t be able to join them. You’ll see “co-op unavailable” next to their name if you’re unable to play with them.
Wuthering Waves is available for Android and iOS, as well as PC via the Epic Games Store. A PS5 launch was reportedly confirmed by Kuro Games, but has apparently been delayed.
