How co-op works
After the solo prologue, two to four online players can finish the campaign in the host’s version of the City. The group parkours, loots, crafts, and fights together; guests retain character rewards, but only the host saves quest, world, and choice progression.
About this game
Humanity teeters on the edge of extinction in this open-world action RPG. The City sprawls across rooftops, streets, and dark interiors, all overrun by infected hordes that grow deadlier after sunset. You play as Aiden Caldwell, using parkour to vault between buildings and brutal melee combat to fend off threats. The Reloaded Edition bundles the base game with all major story expansions and gameplay updates, letting up to four players tackle the campaign together in online co-op.

Traversing rooftops by day feels fast and fluid, but nighttime forces tougher choices: venture out for rare loot or hunker down until dawn. Combat leans on improvised weapons, stamina management, and environmental traps. Co-op partners share quest progress, split up to cover more ground, or coordinate ambushes on human factions and infected nests. Looting, crafting, and faction decisions carry weight across every session.
Online co-op supports drop-in matchmaking, so friends can join mid-mission and leave without breaking the host's campaign. Sessions blend exploration, tense rooftop chases, and large-scale encounters that benefit from divided attention. Communication matters when the sun sets and visibility drops.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many players can team up in co-op?
Dying Light 2 supports online co-op for up to four players. You can use drop-in matchmaking so friends can join mid-mission and leave whenever they want without disrupting the host's campaign progress.
Does co-op progress count for everyone, or just the host?
Co-op partners share quest progress together, so objectives you complete will count for everyone in the session. You can split up to cover more ground or stick together for coordinated attacks on infected nests and human factions.
Is the entire campaign playable in co-op?
Yes, you can tackle the full campaign together in online co-op. The Reloaded Edition includes the base game plus all major story expansions and gameplay updates, all of which support four-player co-op.
Do we need good coordination to play together effectively?
Communication definitely helps, especially at night when visibility drops and infected become deadlier. You can split up during the day to loot and explore, but coordinating ambushes, managing stamina in combat, and deciding when to venture out after dark works much better when you talk things through.
