Does Vampire Survivors Have Local “Couch” Co-Op Multiplayer on PC?

On August 17th, Couch Co-op is coming to PC as well (unless you are using the new-engine beta branch on Steam to access it earlier). Here are the most important details from the announcement (a FAQ if you will):

  • There won’t be a split screen, everyone will be packed on a single screen
  • You can’t have two people on the same keyboard, so you should be having a separate controller for every subsequent player that joins in
  • Up to 4 players will be able to play
  • The online play is still not in plan, unless it’s Steam Remote Play (more details will follow)
  • You won’t be able to choose the same character twice
  • Local co-op will also arrive on mobile, in landscape mode only, and it also requires Bluetooth-enabled controllers.
