Two players, one frontier. This update adds co-op multiplayer to the game.

Host and Join

Start a co-op session from the title screen. Your friend's game finds yours on the network by itself, no configuration required. Two players join the same solar system.

Your Ship and Theirs

A guest arrives in their own hull, with their own upgrades, prestige and academy crew. Everything else is shared: the same pirates, the same colonies, one resource pool, and when the host jumps to another star system, the guest is pulled along for the ride. A guest's save is never updated, so a night on someone else's frontier costs them nothing.

Hold the Deck Together

Boarders only ever come for the host's ship, and when they do you both fight them. Your friend is pulled straight into the same encounter and their crew walks in as reinforcements, so the deck is held by two rosters instead of one. On the surface of planets, you will see each other constructing builds and walking along the same colony.

Your demo save carries straight over to the full game.
