How to get started with multiplayer?

[Al-Ameen Adewunmi]

If you're on PC, you basically have two solid options since there isn’t a native PC port. I personally find using the PPSSPP emulator the easiest way to get a group together; you just enable the "built-in PRO ad hoc server" in the networking settings, and as long as you're all on the same server IP (like a public one or via ZeroTier/Radmin VPN), it works like a charm. If you want the better graphics of the PS3 version, you can use RPCS3 with their RPCN service, which emulates the online servers. It takes a bit more power to run, but playing the full console version online feels way more authentic than the PSP port. Just make sure you all have the same game version/region, or you'll run into "failed to connect" errors all night!
