How co-op works
Up to four online Defenders survive roguelite runs by combining hero abilities, instantly summoned towers, and direct action-RPG combat. Weapons, runes, towers, and talents reshape each build, so the party coordinates crowd control, damage, and boss survival as waves escalate.
About this game
Dungeon Defenders: Going Rogue mixes roguelite progression, action RPG combat, and tower defense into a cooperative gauntlet for up to four players. Each hero brings unique abilities to the battlefield as you work together to survive escalating waves of enemies and tackle menacing bosses. It's cooperative chaos built on constant communication and smart positioning.

Runs unfold through a steady cycle of combat, looting, and tower placement. You'll unlock new weapons and runes between waves, adapting your loadout on the fly while defending key points. The real thrill comes from coordinating tower layouts with your teammates while simultaneously fighting on the front lines, creating a dynamic back-and-forth that rewards both planning and reflexes.
Online co-op supports teams of up to four players, making every session a test of how well your group can juggle offense, defense, and resource management under pressure. Expect rounds that demand clear callouts and quick pivots as enemy compositions shift and bosses arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many players can team up in co-op?
You can play with up to three friends for a total of four players in online co-op. The game is designed around coordinating with your team to handle both tower defense and direct combat simultaneously.
Is this a full tower defense game or more action-focused?
It's a hybrid. You'll place and manage towers to defend key points, but you also control a hero directly in action RPG combat. The co-op challenge comes from balancing both-building defenses while fighting on the front lines at the same time.
How does the roguelite progression work?
Each run involves surviving waves of enemies while unlocking new weapons and runes as you progress. You'll adapt your loadout on the fly between waves, making each attempt feel different based on what you find and how you build your hero.
Do we need voice chat or strong coordination?
Yes, communication is heavily recommended. The game throws shifting enemy compositions and bosses at you, requiring clear callouts about tower placement, resource management, and positioning. Teams that coordinate well will have a much easier time surviving the escalating waves.
