How co-op works
Two local players share story missions and hub areas, switching among DC heroes and villains to combine powers, suits, gadgets, and vehicles for combat, traversal, and puzzles. Steam Remote Play Together carries the shared or split-screen session online.

Players switch between dozens of characters, each with unique abilities needed to unlock doors, assemble gadgets, and crack environmental puzzles across Lantern worlds and iconic DC locations. The shared-screen setup keeps both heroes in frame, so one player might hack a console while the other clears LEGO studs and battles minions.
With single-screen and split-screen modes both available, sessions stay casual and drop-in friendly. The constant character-switching and light puzzle solving reward teamwork without demanding tight coordination, making it a solid pick for parents, younger players, or anyone after a relaxed superhero romp on the couch.
