Co-Op multiplayer in Mario and Luigi Brothership Explained
Do you want to play Mario & Luigi: Brothership in co-op multiplayer? Read our guide to learn whether it is possible to play with friends.
Mario & Luigi series has a rough past. For 15 years this brand was developed by AlphaDream, but this developer declared bankruptcy in 2019. For the next couple of years we have not heard of this franchise. However, in the end, it was given to Acquire. Now, we can enjoy Brothership, which had its premiere yesterday. This is the first game in the series since 2018, when the remake of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey was released. At the same time, 9 years passed since the last major installment. So, of course, many people were waiting for this game. Some of them even want to play with others. The title Mario and Luigi consists of 2 characters, doesn’t it? Let’s talk about it.
Multiplayer and Coop in Mario and Luigi Brothership Explained
As the title suggests, in Mario & Luigi: Brothership you control two characters – Mario and Luigi. The presence of two protagonists could suggest that some sort of multiplayer or local co-op will be available in the game. Unfortunately, this is not true. This RPG is a single player only and you can’t play with your friends.
Keep in mind that Nintendo can be unpredictable, but when it comes to game development, it’s unlikely to experiment. So, probably a couple of patches to Mario & Luigi: Brothership will be released but not adding co-op. Rather, they will fix issues that occur in the game. So, you can expect that this title will not receive a multiplayer and you must play it alone.
