How co-op works

Up to four local players can drop into or out of the full campaign. Each luchador fights, grapples, and uses unlocked traversal moves on one shared screen, while independent dimension switching lets partners manipulate living- and dead-world enemies and platforms without forcing everyone to swap.

About this game

Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is a Metroidvania action-platformer that sends players through a colorful, folklore-inspired Mexico as a luchador fighting to save the world. The game supports drop-in local co-op, letting a second player join as a masked ally to tackle the entire adventure together.

You'll chain lucha moves into combat combos, wall-jump across intricate platforming gauntlets, and swap between living and dead dimensions to solve environmental puzzles. Co-op turns tight platforming sequences into coordinated efforts and boss fights into tag-team brawls, though both players share the same screen and need to stay in sync during tricky jumps and puzzle rooms.

Local couch co-op supports two players on one screen, with no split-screen or online matchmaking. The shared-screen setup creates a rhythm of constant communication, especially when dimension-switching mechanics demand both players move in tandem to progress through puzzle-heavy zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I play Guacamelee! STCE online with a friend?

No, Guacamelee! STCE only supports local co-op. You'll need to play together on the same screen using controllers on one device, though Steam Remote Play Together is an option if you want to stream local co-op over the internet.

How does co-op work with the dimension-swapping puzzles?

Both players share the same screen and need to coordinate their dimension shifts together. When puzzle rooms require switching between the living and dead worlds, you'll need to stay in sync with your partner to progress, which means lots of communication during tricky platforming sequences.

Can the second player drop in and out anytime?

Yes, the game supports drop-in local co-op, so a second player can join as a masked luchador ally at any point during the adventure and play through the entire game together.

Does co-op make the platforming sections easier or harder?

It depends on your coordination. Co-op turns tight platforming sequences into coordinated efforts where both players need to execute jumps and moves together on a shared screen. If you're in sync, boss fights become fun tag-team brawls, but tricky sections can get chaotic if you're not communicating well.
