I’m trying to play dying light 1 with a buddy but I can play every other multiplayer game just fine just for dying light I can’t play but my friend can do multiplayer just fine. Is older games multiple limited on essential or something?

So I go in the game and turn on multiplayer so I can play with a friend but everyone time I try to get out of the menu so it can confirm it says I need Xbox live gold to play multiplayer but games like phas work just fine

what do you mean you turn on multiplayer?
you should not have to turn anything on
unless you mean privacy settings?

For dying light 1 you have to turn on multiplayer for you to play with friends then once you get off the menu it should create a lobby and now I can invite friends but currently I can’t even get off the menu without keeping it on single player
