In announcing that Sea of Stars has been played by over five million people, the developers at Sabotage Studio are teasing a new three-player couch co-op mode. Currently called “Single Player+,” it allows three players to play together, with each controlling one of the characters. While it’s neat that players can independently traverse the world, the highlight of the couch co-op mode is the combat, enhanced by the game’s timed hits mechanic. Sabotage mentioned that the new mode is currently in development, with more details to be released soon.
Sea of Stars launched last summer and is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC. In my review, I described Sea of Stars as “a contemporary twist on a classic formula, potentially convincing gamers to explore the games that inspired it.”
