How does co-op work?

[The Almighty Taco]

Me and a friend are looking to get this game, but in past DW games have been hit or miss with the co-op. So my question is will the progression be saved for both people playing? Also, do we have to clear the maps first before we can play them together?

It is just me thinking from what other games do.

1: You or you friend can make a lobby (private) and then join from there.
2: Then you enter the game and doing some changes to gear or so, from what you could do in the older destiny warrior games you could join your friend or vice verse.

Mind you that it is just that we really dont know how it will work so far, but that is what i have been thinking of what could happen.

Let me hear what you think.

This is a major selling point for me as well. Co-op in WO3 (never played Ultimate, don't know if they improved anything) was flat out worthless as both players pretty much needed to finish the game on their own first. Which defeated the entire point of it. I'm interested in buying for a friend and I on launch if we can play through the campaign together and keep progress, other I'll just wait for a deep discount to play it myself.

Yea, I am really hoping that you can play co-op from the very beginning, A friend and I have been looking forward to playing a game together and we have been long time fans of the warriors series. Otherwise I am in the same boat with LBG where I might just wait till its on sale and play it by myself.

Subbing for respone on this later.

My fear is that it will be like the rest of the warriors pc releases and there will be limited to no online co-op, Samurai Warriors 4-II was the last one where you could play with a friend in any mission

this is how the ps4 co-op works

[Furafura]

For 2p online co-op on ps4, basically you create a lobby, and your friend join. Here is how this work:

1) Your friend can join and play with you even though he not yet unlock that stage.

2) If you finished the game, Your friend still not yet. And you both are playing the map that can unlock the ultimate weapon, you can get the weapon but he cant.

3) If both of you finished the game. When you get the ultimate weapon for that specific character, your friend will get it too even he is not using the specific character.

4) Either you or your friend die in the game, is consider game over have to restart everything again. No checkpoint restart like single mode did.

5) Challenge mission on each map is stackable from both player. So co-op is easier to achieve S-rank abd challenge mission.

Please don't advertise channels, especially not such an attrocious one as that, I find others relayed the point well and the video is just a senseless promo of other ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ who are just out for more views for senseless content. Cheers.

So far i know this, the game does support local co-op If SW4-II is anything to go by then the answer will be yes to doing the game together in CO-OP
