How co-op works
Up to four local players can join or leave throughout the full story. The group shares one screen while combining wrestling attacks, movement abilities, and chicken powers to clear enemy shields, traverse dimension-based platforming, defeat bosses, and uncover routes through the interconnected world.
About this game
Guacamelee! 2 is a hand-drawn Metroidvania that doubles as a side-scrolling beat-em-up, bringing back the dimension-hopping adventures of masked wrestler Juan Aguacate. The sequel expands on the original's colorful Mexiverse with new luchador grapples, tougher bosses, and full four-player local co-op that turns every brawl into a tag-team spectacle.

Players punch, uppercut, and suplex their way through interconnected levels, unlocking new combat moves and traversal abilities that open shortcuts and hidden secrets. The action stays fast and combo-focused, rewarding tight coordination when friends join the fray. Timing special attacks together breaks enemy shields faster and keeps the momentum high during both platforming puzzles and screen-filling boss fights.
Local couch co-op supports up to four players on a single screen, turning exploration and combat into a lively group effort. Remote Play Together extends that session to friends online. The shared-screen format encourages constant callouts and quick recoveries, making every run through the Mexiverse feel like a rowdy lucha libre show.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many players can join locally?

Does co-op work for the entire game, including boss fights?
Yes, co-op is available throughout the whole game. All players can fight through levels, solve platforming puzzles, and take on bosses together as a team.
