Genshin Impact allows playing with the friend via the Co-Op mode. With this, friends can send you a joining request, or vice versa — you can simply send them.
But a message like Unable to join world might pop up while joining their world. So, what does that mean & how to pass through it?
To know the reasons and how to resolve it, keep reading.
Why Can’t You Join Friends in Genshin Impact?
When your friend’s world level is higher than yours, you’ll see a notification that says, Unable to join world. Or maybe that friend is already on an ongoing quest that doesn’t allow Co-Op mode. Furthermore, if the host player enables the Reject Join Requests mode, you won’t be able to join.
As an open-world RPG game, Genshin Impact allows playing with your friends in the Co-Op mode. You can search for friends using their UID from the game menu and send them requests. But even after adding friends, you might be unable to enter the friend’s world.
It’s because there are some rules and restrictions to play in the Co-Op mode. So, when your game ID fails to match the minimum requirements for playing in that mode, you can’t join your friend and play side by side in his/her world.
However, these are the reasons why you can’t join your friends in Genshin Impact:
- The world level is lower than your friends.
- The host player selected the Reject Join requests for World Permissions.
- The friend is on a quest mission that doesn’t support Co-Op mode.
- Any of your quests is pending.
- Bad internet connection.
- Bug or glitch in the game.
- Server problem.
How to Fix Unable to Join World in Genshin Impact
To fix this inability to join the world problem when you want to play with your friends in Co-Op mode, ensure no quest is pending. Plus, you must rank up your world level equal to your friends or more than that. Also, ensure the host player turns off the Reject Join requests option.
Here are the methods you must follow to fix the Unable to enter the World issue:
1. Level Up & Increase World Level
You must level up your Adventure Rank (AR) to increase your Word Level (WL). The fact is you can’t join in Co-Op mode because WL is higher than yours. You only can join with the lower ones, not the higher ones.
Some might think that having a 16 AR allows him to play with any friends. But that’s not true because when you achieve 16 Adventure Rank, you will only unlock the Co-Op mode. Then you can only play with similar World Level holders or no World Level.
So ensure your World Level is equal or higher when trying to Co-Op with your friend.
2. Turn Off the Reject all Requests Option for World Permissions
If the host selects the Reject all Requests option for the World Permissions, none can join in the Co-Op mode. Because when that mode is on, all the join requests will get rejected automatically.
To fix this problem, ask your friend or the host to deselect that option from the World Permissions section. If you’re the host, follow the below instructions.
- Go to the Co-Op mode.
- Tap on the World Permissions options from the bottom left.
- Choose other options, such as the “Allow Direct Join” or “Join After Approval” option.
3. Ensure No Quest is Pending
If any quests are pending in the Genshin Impact, you won’t be able to join others’ worlds via the Co-Op mode. An incomplete story mission quest won’t let you join another’s world unless you complete the mission.
To check it, open the Quests in the Paimon menu and check for the quests to finish. After completing the Quest, go to the Co-Op mode again.
4. Resolve Bad Internet Connection
Sometimes poor internet connection might not let you join with other players in the Co-Op mode. So, if you are the host, ensure you have a strong internet connection.
If it’s faulty, resolve the connection or contact the ISP. Besides, check Genshin Impact’s official Twitter account to know whether there is any problem with their server.
5. Wait for the Bugs to be Fixed
Apparently, bugs or glitches in Genshin Impact can cause various unique problems, and players can’t join in the Co-Op mode is one of them. If your World Level is higher, your net connection and game server are okay, and you still can’t join another’s world, there might be a bug or glitch in the game.
So, there is not much you can do but wait for the next update to fix the bug.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why am I unable to enter a world in Genshin Impact?
If you have left any pending Quest, you will be unable to enter a world. For that, check the Co-Op option; there will be a red mark on the upper side of the icon. That means there is a pending Quest mission. Besides, the lower World Level is also responsible for this issue.
Why is the Co-Op option unavailable in Genshin Impact?
You won’t see the Co-Op option in the Paimon menu because your Adventure Rank is below 16. Genshin Impact requires at least 16 AR to play with friends in the Co-Op mode. But to achieve World Level 1, you must level up the Adventure Rank between 20-25.
What are the Co-Op limitations?
Among many Co-Op limitations, the major ones are — both the players must be in the same server region, a lower level player can’t join with a higher World Level player, players can’t use in-game shops at all, players can’t take the same characters, etc.
