First and foremost, you and the other players must complete the prologue of The Outlast Trials. Afterward, head inside the Murkoff Facility, there where you’ll be able to add friends.

Go into the Terminal Menu, from the Pods you enter to go into the trails area. and look up the names after you’ve added other players to your friend list.

The third entry in the series plays a lot different than the other two. The first two games are linear experiences, where all you have is a camera with night vision. The only way to survive would be to run, hide, and wait for the threat to pass. For The Outlast Trials, a lot of the core gameplay stays the same, but with multiplayer.
