How to join friends in Once Human

Whether you are looking for details on how to join friends in Once Human, how to change your World, or the different methods to add friends, I have detailed everything in this guide.

Once Human is a post-apocalyptic free-to-play third-person open-world game that gives you the vibes of Fallout 76, Rust, and such games.

It is an engaging game that will hook you with its world design, activities, enemy variety, challenging bosses, and myriad other features.

While you can enjoy the game solo, the best way to play it with other players, especially with your friends. In this guide, I have laid out everything you need to know to join and play with your friends in Once Human.

How to add friends in Once Human

To add friends in Once Human, you must press the ‘ESC’ button to open the pause menu, head to the ‘Get United’ section and click on ‘Friends.’

Once that is done, click on the field that says ‘Search by name or ID’ and enter your friends UID or IGN (in-game username). After that, you can select their ID and send them a friend request that they can accept from the ‘Request’ tab in the same menu.

Another quick way to add friends in Once Human is by simply clicking on the players’ names from the world chat and using the ‘Add Friend’ option. If you don’t want the quick way, you can also find their UID there, which you can use to add them as friends anytime you deem suitable.

I think you can also add random players as friends while standing next to them and using the given options. However, while writing, I couldn’t find anyone. My friends were also offline, and I was hungry, so I didn’t check it.

How to join your friends or invite them in Once Human

To join your friends in Once Human, all you have to do is follow the below steps:

1. Open Once Human.
2. Enter your server.
3. Press the ‘ESC’ button.
4. Navigate to ‘Friends’ under the ‘Get United’ menu.
5. Right-click on the friend that you want to join.
6. Click on ‘Join Session.’
   • You can also select ‘Invite to team’ if you want them to join you.
7. That’s it!

Why are you not seeing your friend in your game world in Once Human?

So, you join your friend, standing right next to each other; you can also see each other’s icons on the mini-map but can’t find the character. This has happened to so many players that I made sure to talk about it in this guide.

The thing is, to play with your friend, you must both be on the same server and in the same World. If you don’t see each other, it means you are in different Worlds, and to play, you must either join your friend’s world or let them join yours.

How you change your game world in Once Human

Changing the World in a server in Once Human is straightforward. You can do it through any Teleportation Towers available in the main strongholds and all around the game’s map.

While standing next to a Teleportation Tower, press the ‘G’ key to ‘Switch to another World.’ Select the World you want to join and press and hold the ‘F’ key to make the switch.

That sums up everything you need to know about how to join your friends at Once Human. If the guide helped, please consider buying me a Coffee to help me make more content. You can also share the guide with your friends or leave a comment.
