Bring two friends into the Lands Between
You can play with up to two other Tarnished as cooperative teammates. Invite co-op friends directly with a shared password, or summon help from a pool of nearby players when a boss wall stops your run cold.
That structure fits how the fighting works. Combat is simple to learn and hard to master, built around attacking, avoiding damage, timing, and using an opponent's weakness. Having one friend draw attention while another lines up spells or a heavy weapon turns those duels into actual teamwork.
Split roles with weapons, spells, and summons
You customize appearance plus weapons, armor, usable items, and magic, and develop the character around how you play. One of you can take bold physical confrontation, another tactical spellcasting, another stealth.
In co-op, those choices matter. When builds clash, you just respec your approach and try a new mix next summon.
Bait invaders and settle it in the Colosseums
Co-op is not only cooperation. Other players can invade your session, and mastery of terrain lets you lead invading players into traps or turn a tight dungeon corridor into an ambush.
If you want a fairer fight, there are invited duels and player battle options in three Colosseums. Lose a round, summon your friends back, change weapons, and queue the rematch. The social loop stays straightforward: join, fight, argue about who missed the dodge, go again.
Wander a huge world that rewards backup
The Lands Between connects open fields and huge dungeons seamlessly, full of unknown threats and secrets.
Events can unravel in different ways depending on your interventions, in a story built from a myth by George R. R. Martin. Bring co-op friends for one legacy dungeon or for the whole road to becoming Elden Lord. The world is big enough that having company helps.
How does co-op actually work?
How do I team up with specific friends?
You can invite up to two other Tarnished using a shared password, which lets you match with your own co-op friends instead of strangers. You can also summon teammates from a pool of nearby community members when you just need extra swords for a dungeon or boss.
What do we actually do together moment to moment?
You explore open fields and dungeons, fight through enemies, and take on formidable bosses that reward timing and exploiting weaknesses. One player can attack head-on while another casts spells or uses summons, so coordination around attacking and avoiding damage decides most fights.
Is there PvP for co-op groups?
Yes. Your co-op session can be invaded by other players, and you can use terrain and traps against them. For arranged fights, there are invited duels and battle options in three Colosseums, separate from story progress.
Do we need the same character build to cooperate?
No. You customize appearance, weapons, armor, usable items, and magic, and grow toward physical confrontation, spellcasting, or stealth. Different builds work well together, since a melee fighter, a caster, and a stealth-minded archer cover different ranges and risks.
