How co-op works
Local two-player co-op lets both Dan and Monika fight through levels together, sharing the screen or splitting it as needed. Partners combine ninja abilities and transformations to overcome platforming puzzles and boss encounters.

Ninja powers and warrior transformations drive the moment-to-moment action. Players dash, attack, and use special abilities to clear platforming puzzles and defeat waves of foes. Six full bosses and six mini-bosses punctuate the campaign, each demanding precise movement and well-timed strikes.
Adjustable difficulty and full controller support make the experience accessible for different skill levels and couch co-op setups. The 43-level structure offers steady progression and replay opportunities as players refine their runs and test new strategies together.
