Does Mortal Shell 2 Have Co-op or Multiplayer?
Short answer: no. Mortal Shell 2 is a single-player souls-like — the official Steam listing carries no co-op, PvP or online-multiplayer category tags, and the developers have announced no multiplayer plans.
What the game offers instead is replay structure: 8 Shells with a three-per-run upgrade cap, route variety across six regions, difficulty levers like night mode, and New Game+. If co-op souls-likes are what you're after, this isn't that — read the review roundup before buying.
