Once outside and past the white truck, the game will pop up with a notification letting you know co-op is now available.
There are a couple of options for playing inco-op, all depending on who you want to play with.
If you’re fine jumping into a random game, you can select Join Game on the main menu and choose Quick Join to be placed in someone’s Public lobby.
To join friends, you will still select Join Game on the main menu. Instead of Quick Join, you can select which friend has a game set to Public/Friends Only to join.
For those who prefer to host, you only need to choose what type of lobby you want when selecting Continue Game on the main menu. Your choices are Single Player, Public, Invite Only, and Friends Only.
To invite friends into your game, open the normal menu (not the Play Menu) and select Session.
This will take you to the lobby screen to see who is currently in your game. From here, just press whatever key/button is labeled Invite Players in the bottom right of the screen.
Now you can just enjoy the experience of surviving a zombie apocalypse with other players.
