Sure, you can wander anywhere you want, but the regions outside of where you’re supposed to be in Act 1 are at a significantly higher level – enough to crush you like a bug for roaming into lands you’re not yet welcome in. If you want to complete story quests and make progress together, make sure you have the same quest step before joining up.As you’ve heard by now, Diablo 4 is more open-world than ever, and Blizzard’s implementation works well. If you’ve already completed story quests on your own character but join a player who is farther behind or farther ahead, you’ll be able to complete those quests, but progress on your own character won’t be impacted either way. While playing with friends, all your progress will be saved – all loot, quest progression, XP – everything. This will load you up to their exact location regardless of where they are in the world. If you ever become separated during the course of play, you can easily teleport to anyone in your party by teleporting back to the region’s hub city by pressing down on the d-pad on the controller, then you can search for the player’s portal in the town square that you’d like to rejoin. They’ll get a notification that they’ve been invited and can join your game.Īnd there you have it! Now you can play alongside your friends. To invite them to your game, just click on their profile from the menu and select Invite to Party from the actions menu.

Once they’ve accepted your request, you’ll see their BattleTag show up in your friends list on the social menu.
