How To Play Coop in the Outriders Demo

Will Outriders crossplay be a thing?

Being a fast-paced shooter set in a ruined Earth is a ton of fun. Harkening back to the Gears of War feel that we all remember fondly, this game is taking all the lessons learned about how to make a shooter quite well. To get fans into the idea of taking on this nightmarish world, a new Outriders Demo has dropped this month. The game features multiple class choices and a full character customizer, making it very easy to insert yourself into the world.

The game is out now on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X and PC. And the best part is, it has full cross-play support among all six of those platforms. Although for now, cross-play is not fully enabled, so there might be issues for some users. So that means you can game with your friends and get through this hellish world together. And don’t worry, any progress you make in the Outriders Demo will be carried over to the full game.

Here’s how to play co-op in the Outriders demo.
