Want to know everything about multiplayer in Minecraft Legends and how to invite and play with friends? While Minecraft Legends provides players with new gameplay, an exciting story, and three game modes, it all gets even better if you play with friends. All you need is a copy of the game for each friend, a Microsoft account, and a few minutes to add the player as a friend. Fortunately, Minecraft Legends multiplayer is available in cross-platform and for all three game modes, but each has some exceptions. So we are here today to help you and tell you all about multiplayer in Minecraft Legends and how to invite and play with friends in all modes.
Minecraft Legends Multiplayer Explained
As we said earlier, Multiplayer is available in all three Minecraft Legends modes: Campaign, Versus, and Lost Legends & Myths. It doesn’t matter what platform you play on, as Minecraft Legends is cross-platform. If you know about all the multiplayer game features in each game mode, you can skip to the next heading of this guide. But if you’re new to the game, here’s a list of features.
Campaign Multiplayer
Campaign mode allows you to play in a group of up to 4 people. However, only the player-host of this world is the owner of this save. Other players can help the player-host, perform any action, or even play while the creator of the world is not online, but progress will be increased only to the player-host.
It will be a good idea to divide the responsibilities among the players. Someone can be a collector, someone a builder, and someone an explorer. Also, each player has their own set of Allays, but all the materials are shared.
Versus Multiplayer
When playing Versus mode, you will play against other players in 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, and 4v4 modes. The Versus Multiplayer map is significantly smaller than in Campaign mode, and your goal is to destroy the Well Of Fate of the opponents, which is a bit like Bed Wars gameplay.
You can create a public or private gaming channel. In the first case, you will play with random players, and in the second, you will have to invite 1, 3, 5, or 7 friends, depending on the chosen battle option.
Lost Legends & Myths Multiplayer
Unlike the Campaign mode, progress in Lost Legends & Myths is shared by all players. You can invite up to 3 players for a multiplayer game. This game mode added new challenges every month, and you will receive free cosmetic items by completing each.

Depending on the mode, the invite friends in Minecraft Legends process is slightly different. But in any case, first, you must add the player as a friend to your Microsoft account. Once you’ve done that, here’s what to do to invite and play with friends in Minecraft Legends:
- Launch Minecraft Legends and select your preferred game mode.

- Select a friend(s) and press Select.

- Also, it is worth adding that in the Campaign mode, the joined players can play in this world at any time, even without a player host.
