If you like Deep Rock Galactic but wish there was more horror, you should try Ripout. Ripout has co-op options just like Deep Rock Galactic and here is how to use them.

Sadly, Ripout doesn’t have local co-op, but it does have up to three-player online co-op. The game is still in early access, so anything can happen. But for now, here is how to play online co-op in Ripout.

Ripout: How to play co-op

The first thing you do in Ripout is play a mandatory tutorial. But this isn’t such a bad thing — the tutorial does a good job of teaching you how to play. You don’t want to get into your friend’s game and look like a noob, so learn everything you can in the tutorial. It took me about 10 minutes to clear the tutorial.

You’ll end the tutorial when you take the small ship back to base. Once you arrive at the central base hub area, you can exit back to the main menu.

Now that you’ve completed the mandatory tutorial, you can now play Ripout co-op. Once you’re at the main menu, you can either press “Join Game” to join a friend’s existing game or you can switch the arrows under play to “Public” for a server that anyone can join or “Private” for a server that only invited players can play in.

If you’ve created a Public or Private server, you’ll launch into Ripout and chill in the central hub area. From here, you can invite your friends to play with you through Steam or through Ripout. When everybody’s there, hop into the ship and start a mission.

Ripout is a great time with co-op. The missions, while linear, often feature fairly open spaces that you and your friends can explore. Whether you’re with complete strangers or with your friends, we hope you enjoy Ripout co-op.
