How it plays
Hunts of four go fast, with each player picking from fourteen weapon types and someone usually handling support.
Story missions need everyone to have seen the cutscenes, so the group tends to progress in step, while optional hunts and SOS flares let friends join at any point.
Each player needs a copy; PC, PS5 and Xbox players can hunt together.
