Dying Light 2 crossplay isn’t available yet, though Techland promised to add it in a future update. Until then, you can still join up with friends and randos on the same platform as yourself and decide the fate of Villedor.
How does Dying Light 2 co-op work?
Co-op in Dying Light 2 lets you complete story missions, side quests, encounters, and everything you normally can do in single-player mode. Team members vote on important choices, though the game host is the one with the final say on what happens. Game progress and all items you find are saved separately, so you won’t lose out on anything once you go back to your own version of Villedor.
How do you start Dying Light 2 co-op?
You’ll need to complete the game’s prologue mission, which is rather lengthy. It takes Aiden through the wilds, into a tunnel system, and finally into Old Villedor, and after about two hours or so, the city finally opens up to you. There’s essentially nothing you could do with other players up until that point anyway, so you’re not missing anything. After you reach that point, you can access the online options menu in two ways. The first is in the game’s pause menu, or you can choose “Options” from the main menu and navigate to the “Online Options tab. From here, pick what kind of session you want:
Public Friends Only Private
Public means anyone can see your availability for online play and request to join your game. Friends Only is what it says on the label, allowing any of your friends on your platform to join you. Meanwhile, Private is a closed party where you can invite who you want to play with, and nobody can randomly join.
How do you join a co-op game in Dying Light 2?
After you set your game type to anything other than single player, exiting the menu takes you to another online menu with three empty slots next to your Aiden. If you just want to join a game, ignore those. On your left is another set of options.
Join Game – This brings up a list of active games and lets you pick which one you’d like to join Quick Join – You’re slotted into someone else’s game without choosing who it is.
