The Official Astroneer Discord Server
Please replace the old information with current information. - This may include rewriting sections to ensure they are concise and clear and wikifying. Reason: Missing dedicated server information Multiplayer co-op is available in Astroneer for up to 4 players using clients on different platforms: PS4 with PS4, Steam and Steam, Switch with Switch. Crossplay is only accessible using the Xbox and Windows Store versions.
Take note of the following:
- Playing in multiplayer mode requires that all players connected to be using the exact identical version of the game. The game's host could experience performance issues because their computer processes more data. Unlocked progress achievements and rewards cannot be shared with any player who joins the game after it is completed. - People joining your game will have to be friends with your platform. A single player is allowed to start the game. Contents
