Team up for separate co-op missions
The single-player story is solo, so co-op lives in its own modes built for two. You and a friend work through fights against bandit gangs and mutant hordes, with the same toolkit that makes the shooting fun: exotic weapons, Wingsticks, personal turrets, sentry bots, and remote-controlled bomb cars. Expect short, straightforward missions about clearing rooms and keeping each other alive, not long campaigns. Good for an evening where you want to join up, shoot a lot, and log off.
Race and wreck buggies online
The other shared part is vehicular. You drive your own buggy across the wasteland, upgrade it with parts, paint and weapons, then battle bandit clans or enter deadly races. Online car combat is its own playlist apart from the story, fast and scrappy rather than careful. The wasteland setting does the rest: a ravaged world of settlements, side quests, and an oppressive Authority, rendered in sharp id Tech 5 detail at 60 frames per second.
Good to know before you team up?
Can you play the main story in co-op?
No. The story about emerging from an Ark into a ravaged Earth is single-player only. Co-op happens in exclusive separate modes, so think of it as a side dish of missions rather than the whole campaign played together.
What do you actually do in co-op?
Fight through compact combat missions built for two. You face bandits and mutants with guns, Wingsticks, turrets, sentry bots, and bomb cars, which keeps the teamwork simple: pick targets, use gadgets, revive when needed.
What about the cars?
Cars are the second multiplayer draw. You customize a buggy, then race or fight other drivers online. It is third-person, speedy, and separate from the on-foot shooting, so co-op friends who like driving get their own thing to do.
How long is a session?
Suited to short sessions. Missions and races are built around jumping in, shooting or driving, and finishing, rather than open-world wandering together. The expansive world with characters and side quests stays in solo play.
