Is Cross-Play Supported in Dead Island 2?
Because Dead Island 2 lacks cross-play support, you are unable to invite or play with players on other platforms.
The game does, however, allow cross-generation play, so you can matchmake or invite people who are using the same console generation as you. You can team up with a friend who is playing on his Xbox One, for instance, if you are both playing on the Xbox Series X.
Go to the main menu, pick Continue Game, then select Public or Invite Only for your game type to let others join you in the game. When you play in Invite Only mode, only anyone you invite can join your game; when you play in Public mode, other players can connect with you through matchmaking.

How to Play Dead Island 2 Cooperatively
Up to two players can play together in Dead Island 2. When playing with other people, the game is more exciting and enjoyable than when played alone.
Dead Island 2’s cooperative mode is initially inaccessible. It becomes accessible once you complete the main mission, “Call the Cavalry,” and depart Emma Jaunt’s residence.
Go to the menu bar, choose the Social tab, and start playing cooperatively. You can then invite your friends to play with you. Nevertheless, you have to go back to the main menu and select Join Game if you want to play with other people. To match people at random, just choose Quick Join.
