How co-op works
Players control wobbly characters with independent arm controls, grabbing onto surfaces and each other to navigate cooperative platforming gauntlets. Success depends on coordinated grips, well-timed swings, and constant communication to avoid plummeting into hazards together.
About this game
Grab your friends and swing through obstacle courses together in a cooperative platformer for up to four players.

Every handhold matters: link characters into a chain, build momentum and release at the right moment to reach the next safe surface. A teammate can become an anchor or a lifeline when a jump goes wrong. Talk through the route and move as a group to bring everyone to the finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I play Heave Ho 2 online with friends, or is it couch co-op only?
Heave Ho 2 supports both online co-op and local couch co-op for 2-4 players. This is the first time the series has offered online play, so you can now swing through the chaos with friends remotely or gather around the same screen like the original.
How important is communication and coordination in Heave Ho 2?
Communication is crucial. The game revolves around grabbing teammates and swinging them to safety through physics-based obstacle courses. Miscommunication leads to hilarious disasters-players tumbling into pits or saws-while synchronized timing and quick callouts turn impossible jumps into successful rescues.
How do teammates help each other through a course?
Grab another player to form a chain, hold a safe ledge while they swing, and coordinate when to release. Reaching the next platform depends on how the group moves together.
