Co-op was the central strength overall, with reviewers praising teamwork, shared problem-solving, Friend Pass access, and two-player bonding.

Co-op experience is mostly positive through Horizon Arcade and Tours, though one reviewer found longer co-op events can become a slog.

Cons: tutorial quality, animation quality
Co-op was enjoyable overall, but reviewers noted story restrictions, unclear early setup, and uneven friction around playing together.
Pros: art direction, cross-play support
