One of the unique aspects of The Lords of The Fallen is the game’s robust multiplayer, which you can join or leave practically whenever you want. From helping out your friends against a tough boss in co-op to hunting down another Lampbearer in PvP, you have many options through this mode. However, some ways this Soulsbourne-esque title presents its multiplayer can be confusing.
You do not need to have any special items to initiate multiplayer throughout your adventure, making it very easy to join this mode at any time. Any Umbral Scouring in Lords of The Fallen or any other resources are kept as you go back into your world if you choose to enter another. Only the host of a multiplayer game progresses, meaning that any bosses defeated in co-op must be taken down again in the guest’s world.
How To Play Multiplayer in Lords of The Fallen
To join a multiplayer game, you must access one of the many Vestiges scattered throughout Lords of The Fallen. These Vestiges act like safe zones in different areas, allowing your character to Rest and recover their healing items. The last option in a Vestige menu is “Multiplayer,” which gives you four different options when you select it to determine what flavor of the mode you want before joining.

PlayStation and Xbox players can not join each other’s games in multiplayer for Lords of The Fallen, but either platform can connect to Lampbearer’s from the game’s PC version.
To leave any world, go to the Start Menu Settings and find the multiplayer tab, then press the “Leave Session” prompt to return to your world. You’ll keep any items you found along the way if you were in co-op, in addition to healing consumables that may be reset instantly at the Vestige you were at before. Leaving a multiplayer session you joined in The Lords of The Fallen will let you return to the progress of your journey.
