How co-op works
Up to four online agents share story missions and open-world activities, combining cover positions, weapon builds, deployable skills, focused fire, and revives while retaining individual loot and progression. The Dark Zone is separate PvPvE territory where squads extract contaminated gear and may betray one another.
