How does multiplayer work?

Is it the same content as solo but with other players?

Yes it's the same content as solo but with a Max of 8 other players in the map.
You can also do challenges against other players. It's pretty cool.

I like it that games have the same content for single and multi, its unfair is multiplayer has content that cant be accessed by single players, GTA V did this and it sucked I couldn't do it.

So 100% same content? I mean, everything the same?

Also, is there a tether between each of the players, or can each play go as far away from each other as possible?

its a huge open world so I highly doubt its tethered that wouldn't make sense

Some devs do some wacky things, you never know.

Each player can go their separate ways. You don't have to be close to each other as my buddy and I play this every night. Your stats from single player and multiplayer are shared. So guns you unlock and buy transfer over to multiplayer and vise versa. Your stats and top kills also transfer between the two.

Is this a recent change? I remember when I first got it the multiplayer was really tacked on and whoever joined the host couldnt unlock anything and hunting together was pointless as only one person could get xp/progression from a kill. Has this changed? Thanks!

Don't know if it has changed but I got the game in December and it's been working like that for me. So it's at least a few month in the game.

Afaik everyone who landed a shot gets xp and money depending on the damage you did but only one person can harvest it. Don't know if that's the case if 4 or more people shoot at one animal since I've played only duo so far.

Yes there are no tethering and everyone can gain cahs, xp, and unlock things. The multiplayer and singleplayer share the same data so your unlocks and stats are shared between them. you can be as far away from eachother as you want. Correct that only one person can harvest the killed animal. Because multiple people can not harvest the same animal in real life. But that doesnt mean that only one animal is harvestable at a time. You can kill an animal and garvest it while someone else is.
