Little Nightmares 3 How to Use Friend Pass

The **Friends Pass** enables one player to invite another to experience *Little Nightmares 3* at no additional cost. This feature simplifies co-op gameplay, allowing two players to join forces online without requiring both to purchase the game. Setup takes mere minutes.

How the Friends Pass Works

The Friends Pass unlocks the full co-op campaign for two players on the same platform. Key details:

  • **Host Requirements**: One player must own the full game.
  • **Guest Access**: The second player downloads the free Friends Pass from their platform’s store.
  • **Shared Experience**: Both players connect online to explore *The Nowhere* together.

A stable internet connection and separate platform accounts are required. Progress saves individually, and the invited player can resume sessions anytime if the host initiates a new game.

How to Use the Friends Pass

Starting a co-op session involves these steps:

  • The host launches *Little Nightmares 3* and selects **Multiplayer** from the main menu.
  • Wait for the *”Attempting to create session”* message to complete.
  • Open the friend list via the invite button on the multiplayer screen.
  • Select the friend using the Friends Pass version.
  • After they accept the invite, both players enter the lobby.
  • Choose **Start Game** to begin the shared adventure.

If the friend lacks the Friends Pass, they can search for it directly on their platform’s store.

Platform Details

**Important limitations**:

  • No cross-platform support (e.g., Steam players can’t join PlayStation sessions).
  • Local or split-screen co-op isn’t available—both players need separate devices online.

Troubleshooting

For *“No License Found”* errors or connection issues:

  • Reboot both devices and relaunch the game.
  • Create a new session via the multiplayer menu.
  • Confirm both players are on the *same platform version*.
  • Verify internet stability before resending invites.
