Joining friends only takes a few quick button presses.

They’re part of multiplayer, but they aren’t essential.

Clans exist just for groups of players who want to experience the game in a similar way to join together. You don’t have to join a clan to play multiplayer, either. You can play everything with friends, including dungeons, strongholds, campaign missions, cellars, and side quests, and you even get a nice little 10 percent EXP bonus for playing in a group – perfect when you’re trying to push through the level 90 grind and hit level 100. While Diablo 4 starts off as a single-player experience, you can join up to three friends online as soon as you finish the prologue and have access to the full menu. This guide explains how to play Diablo 4 in multiplayer and which features you have access to on different platforms. Couch co-op is also possible and only requires one copy of the game - but it only works on console. One thing that works regardless of platform is Diablo 4 crossplay, which lets you team up with three other people and tackle pretty much everything in the game.

Diablo 4 multiplayer lets you team up with friends near and far, though how it works and which features are available depends on which platform you use.
