[343iBot]

If you're looking to play Airship Syndicate's new shared-world title Wayfinder, you've likely got some questions regarding its cross-play and cross-save functionality. Whether you're playing with friends or going it alone, you'll want to be sure you know what to expect when logging in, and we've got you covered on all of that information below.

Wayfinder co-op team size

Wayfinder is a shared-world game that is extremely similar to an MMO. As such, it is fully playable with friends and strangers alike in groups of up to three players. You can set out on adventures together, tackle dangerous dungeons to earn loot, or simply hang out and shoot the breeze in Skylight, the game's central hub for socialization, crafting, and much more. Don't worry, though--while you'll be certain to have plenty of opportunities to hook up with other players, cooperative play is not required for most content, so you'll be free to play alone if you prefer.

Does Wayfinder have cross-play?

Wayfinder will support cross-play when the game exits its Early Access period, which is expected to be sometime in 2023. For now, you'll be restricted to playing exclusively with friends who are on the same platform as you.

Does Wayfinder have cross-saves?

As with cross-play, Wayfinder will support cross-saving after exiting its Early Access period. Currently, you'll have to continue your progress on the platform you started your save on.

These features will be fully available when the game enters its official free-to-play release, and as soon as more information is available, we'll be sure to let you know when that's coming your way. In the meantime, keep up to date on Wayfinder by staying tuned to GameSpot.

Wayfinder enters Early Access on August 15 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
