Host or join a network gaming session with Netplay. Rediscover the joy of multiplayer games using RetroArch's builtin Netplay lobby. You can also use the spectator mode to watch others play.

#RetroArch enables you to play games online. You can challenge players around the world and compete on classic games like Mario Kart, Bomberman, Street Fighter, or team up on games like Streets of Rage or Sonic 3.

RetroArch relies on peer-to-peer networking to reduce network latency and ensure the best possible experience.

The most convenient way to try #Netplay is to use the lobby inside the menu.

You need an active internet connection and a router that supports UPnP port forwarding.

You will also need to own the same ROM as your partner and have it scanned and in your playlists. We recommend ROMs from the No-Intro sets.

To join a netplay room in the lobby, just refresh the room list and press A on a room entry.

To host your own netplay session, press A on Start netplay host and a room will be created and announced publicly.

This lobby will also work for local rooms (on your home local network).

You can find more information and lobby browser at: https://www.retroarch.com/?page=netplay
