The Finals is a game that allows you to play with other friends on many different consoles and platforms. However, the game doesn’t start out optimized to do so. Luckily, you can find all of the options on how you can play with friends below.
We’ll go over how to add and invite friends in The Finals, along with what to do if that doesn’t work. Make sure to check out our guide on how to change your username if you’re having trouble there.
