Raft supports up to eight players in one multiplayer session, allowing you to get a good party of friends going to play together with. The game also scales slightly in difficulty with more players, meaning you need to scavenge for more food and water to sustain everyone, and deal with more enemies like the pesky sharks.
Playing with friends is also made very simple as long you both own the game via Steam. Just make or load into your world, and check the option called "Friends can join," this will allow your pals to select your server when clicking the "Join world" option on the main menu.
