ANANTA Multiplayer & Crossplay

Solo-friendly open world with layered online play. Here is exactly how co-op, crossplay, and shared progression work across PC, PS5, and mobile.

// QUICK ANSWER

ANANTA is an online open-world RPG that is fully playable solo — the entire story, exploration, and character progression can be done alone. Multiplayer is optional and layered on top: 4-player co-op missions, shared world bosses, street races, and social spaces, with cross-platform play across all launch devices.

Multiplayer FAQ

Is ANANTA multiplayer or single-player? ▼
Both. The full main story, side quests, and city exploration are playable entirely solo. On top of that, ANANTA offers online co-op missions, shared world bosses, and social urban spaces.
Does ANANTA have co-op? ▼
Yes. Cooperative instances let squad members tackle dungeons, boss fights, and street races together. Story-critical missions remain solo so narrative pacing is preserved.
Is ANANTA crossplay / cross-platform? ▼
Cross-platform play between PC (Steam + official launcher), PS5, iOS, and Android has been a stated design goal since reveal, letting one friend list span every device. Final retail implementation details are tracked on this page as they are confirmed.
Is there cross-progression? ▼
ANANTA uses a linked-account model — progression and purchases are expected to follow your NetEase/platform account across devices. Cloud save sync requires account linking at first login.
Do I need PlayStation Plus to play online on PS5? ▼
Console platform subscription requirements have not been officially detailed yet. This answer updates as soon as NetEase confirms PS5 online requirements.
Can I play ANANTA offline? ▼
A persistent online connection is expected for the shared-world elements, though solo instancing may relax this. Official offline policy is pending final confirmation.
