Playing with friends is one of the best things about modern gaming, but things have changed a lot over the years, with couch co-op now becoming less common and a growing rise of crossplay opening the doors to a larger community.

If you’re wondering where Space Marine 2 lands in this regard, we’ve outlined everything you need to know about couch co-op, crossplay, and cross-progression.

Does Space Marine 2 support couch co-op?

No, Space Marine 2 does not support couch co-op. That means you and a buddy cannot play together from the same console. Instead, you need Space Marine 2 on two separate platforms if you want to play together in the same household.

Though this may disappoint some players, the brilliance of Space Marine 2 likely wouldn’t shine through if the screen was split in half for couch co-op and the lack of the feature is becoming increasingly common in modern gaming.

The good news, however, is there are other options to play with friends.

Does Space Marine 2 support crossplay?

Yes, Space Marine 2 supports crossplay across all platforms. But the availability of crossplay depends on the mode you want to play.

For the main campaign and the three-player co-op Operations mode, crossplay is available across Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam and Epic Games. Regardless of your platform, you can join up with your friends.

But full crossplay is not supported in the PvP modes. While Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 players can play together in this mode, they’re separated from PC players. On PC, you can play PvP with friends regardless of whether they have the game on Steam or Epic Games.

Does Space Marine 2 provide cross-platform support?

Cross-platform support is available in Space Marine 2—but you need to sign up for a Prism Ray Online Services (PROS) account and connect to your game. Save progress is tied to your account, so you need to go through this method if you want to transfer your progress to another platform.

Otherwise, progress is saved directly onto your console or system. You can connect to PROS at any point, though, and won’t need to restart when you do so.
