How co-op works
Two to four agents play the campaign online, combining third-person gunfire, character-specific magical powers, environmental traps, puzzles, and treasure hunting. Teammates can divide enemy control and clue solving, trigger traps around one another, and then continue into separate score-attack or horde modes.
About this game
Strange Brigade throws players into a campy 1930s serial adventure where a quartet of colonial-era agents face off against mythical monsters and undead legions across sun-baked ruins and forgotten temples. The game plays as true co-op for up to four players online, mixing third-person gunplay with environmental puzzles and explosive traps that reward coordination.

Combat revolves around crowd control, weapon variety, and clever use of stage hazards like spike walls or electrified floors to thin the swarms. Treasure chests, amulet powers, and unlockable gear give every mission a loot-hunt feel, while a chatty narrator keeps the tone lighthearted even when the undead pile up.
Online co-op supports four players, and the difficulty scales to match your group size. Voice chat becomes essential during bigger set-pieces when one player needs to flank while another activates a deadly trap. Sessions blend combat arenas with light exploration, making it a natural fit for friends who enjoy pulp action and a bit of banter between shootouts.

Can I play Strange Brigade solo, or is it co-op only?
You can play solo or with up to four players online. The difficulty scales based on your group size, so it works either way, though coordinating traps and flanking maneuvers is more fun with friends.
Is voice chat important for playing co-op?
Yes, especially during larger battles. You'll often need to coordinate who activates environmental traps like spike walls or electrified floors while others flank or control the crowd, so communication helps a lot.
What's the focus of co-op gameplay-just shooting or something else?
It blends third-person shooting with environmental puzzles and trap mechanics. You'll fight waves of undead, trigger hazards to thin the hordes, hunt for treasure, and work through light exploration between combat arenas.
