How it works
From installation to your first trophy.
Seven steps, and the first three you only ever do once.


02 / 07
Link your account
Scan the code your Recalbox shows to link your account: from then on it knows you are a patron.

03 / 07
Move to Recalbox 11 Patron 1
Your Recalbox offers the update by itself. You can also download it from your patron downloads.

04 / 07
Pick a room, press ready
Pick a game, walk into its room, press ready: the service finds your opponent, launches the game on both Recalbox and connects you.

05 / 07
Start a quick game with a friend
Friends are added with a code you hand out yourself: nobody can search for you. Then, from your game list, invite a friend on the game under the cursor: you see first which of them own it, and the match starts as soon as one accepts. No room to open, no queue.

06 / 07
Enter a cup
Single elimination, drawn at random, from two players to sixty-four. Your Recalbox calls you when your match is ready.

07 / 07
Go for the challenge
For two weeks, everybody plays the same game, on a single credit. Every run also pushes the community missions forward!
