So you can play with a friend on a second controller if they are in the same room as you, but online co-op is not included and if you game alone at home, the game will very much be a (Han) solo experience.<\/p>\n<p>To activate LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga co-op, just connect a second controller and press any button on that second controller \u2014 that should add your second player into the game to help you out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more on LEGO Star Wars:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul><li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/lego-star-wars-skywalker-saga-review\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga review<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 how it fixes the films<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/lego-star-wars-skywalker-saga-characters\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga characters<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 all 300 playable figures<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/best-lego-games\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Best LEGO games<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 all the classics, ranked<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/movies\/best-star-wars-gifts\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Best Star Wars merchandise<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 great galactic gifts<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>So that means there is no crossplay either (little point in that without online multiplayer) and this is certainly a game on the light side when it comes to multiplayer.<\/p>\n<p>As disappointing as it is, it should not come as too much of a surprise as the LEGO series has rarely delved too deeply into it \u2013 maybe we\u2019ll get it properly in whatever the next game from the studio turns out to be.<\/p>\n<p>If any further multiplayer modes or methods are added to LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, we\u2019ll be sure to update this page!
