How to Play Co-Op in Code Vein
Playing Code Vein in co-op allows friends or strangers to enter your world and help you out. Alternatively, you can join someone else’s game to offer assistance. This is a great way to experience Code Vein, especially considering the difficulty of some of the bosses. Plus, it’s just plain fun to play co-op.
Setting up a co-op match is fairly easy, but there are a few settings you can tinker if you want to fine-tune your experience. To start a co-op session, you must perform the following steps:
- Start the game and select the Online mode at the title screen. Note: if you’re playing offline, this can only be changed at the title screen, not in-game.
- Load up your game
- Enter an area where you want to play co-op (there are restrictions here)
- Press Esc or Start to bring up the menu
- Go to the Multiplayer tab (third icon, two heads facing one another)
- Select Send a Distress Signal to ask for help or Search for Distress Signal to find someone to help
- Wait for a connection to be found and then enjoy playing Code Vein co-op!
If the multiplayer tab is unavailable, try quitting and reloading the game. You may need to exit the game entirely and relaunch it. Code Vein may even require an update.
How to Limit Co-Op Session
There is one small setting you can change in Code Vein to ensure you only play with friends. This is an option that many players will likely want to do to ensure no randoms get in the way of a friend joining. This method sets up a password that your friend must enter before entering your game. To set this up, complete the following steps:
- Ensure you are Online
- Load into a co-op compatible area
- Press Esc or Start to bring up the menu
- Navigate to Settings and then to Network Settings
- Turn on Matchmaking Password
- Enter a password
- Have your friend enter the same password to join your game to play co-op
After setting up the Matchmaking Password, only those who have the password will be able to join your session. This locks out strangers from being able to play with you. Remember to turn off this setting if you want to play with randoms.
