If you are one of the many thousands currently enjoying the latest sensation that is Lethal Company, you may feel the desire for a more chaotic experience.

Luckily, the modding community has worked swiftly as they do and already have a mod that enables exceeding the party limit in Lethal Company. In this guide, we'll explore the steps to unlock 8 to 40-player lobbies in Lethal Company using the BiggerLobby mod.

How to Have More Than Four Players in Your Lethal Company Lobby

While the game doesn't officially support more than four players, a dedicated modder named bizzlemip has created the Bigger Lobby Mod, enabling up to 40 players to join a single lobby. Here are the steps to download and install the BetterLobby mod for Lethal Company:

1. Download BepInEx:

   • Head to the BepInExPack page and choose the manual download method.

   • After downloading, extract the contents from the .zip file into the Lethal Company game folder (typically located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Lethal Company).

2. Install LC_API:

   • Within the BepInEx folder, create a new folder named "Plugins."

   • Download the LC_API.dll file from the LC-API page, placing it in the newly created "Plugins" folder.

3. Download BiggerLobby Mod:

   • Visit the BiggerLobby mod page and click "Download Now."

   • Extract the contents of the rar file into the Lethal Company folder, agreeing to replace files if prompted.

4. Host Your Lobby:

   • Run the game from Steam and initiate a new lobby.

   • Set the maximum number of players you want to join your lobby.

   • Invite friends from Steam, ensuring they have the Bigger Lobby Mod installed on their computers.

Ensure all players have the mod installed; otherwise, they won't be able to join your lobby.

Bigger Lobby Mod Bugs

While the Bigger Lobby Mod offers a game-changing experience, there are occasional bugs to be aware of:

• Stability and Performance: Modder bizzlemip is actively updating the mod to improve stability and performance, but expect performance drops when exceeding eight players, occasionally leading to crashes.

• Prior Issues: Some issues, such as game time discrepancies, enemy spawning problems, and match-ending troubles, were reported before the 2.2.6 update. However, ongoing patches are gradually ironing out these concerns.

With the BiggerLobby mod, the game's chaotic nature turns up to eleven and while there are the occasional bugs and crashes, the experience is very much worth any hassle you may have.
