Morta Gets Online Co-op in Latest Update

- Easily jump into multiplayer by sharing a code with a friend in Children of Morta.
- Receive helpful assistance in both Story Mode and Family Trials mode.
Among recent releases, Children of Morta definitely caught our attention here at the office. This roguelike hack and slash RPG stands out with its unique premise, focusing on a Belmont-style family of monster hunters fighting against evil. It's rare to find a game that emphasizes family unity in this way, yet Children of Morta executes the theme impressively well.
However, if you're like me, you might have found it ironic that a game so centered on family didn't include any multiplayer features. That changes now! The latest post-launch update for Children of Morta introduces online co-op play.
Available in both Story Mode and Family Trials mode, you can now join forces with a friend to battle the Corruption together. Simply share a code for them to enter in-game, and you'll soon be hacking, slashing, and conquering challenges as a team!
Children behaveI believe Children of Morta is one of those rare games that excels at selling its core concept. While monster-hunting families like the Belmonts are common in gaming, the theme of ancestral combat usually revolves around cursed bloodlines rather than familial bonds.
Given this context, adding co-op feels like a natural fit. The straightforward process of inviting friends via an in-game code will likely encourage more players to try it out.
