Hyper Light Breaker Multiplayer Guide: Conquer the Breach with Friends or Random Players
Hyper Light Breaker, the 3D rogue-lite successor to Hyper Light Drifter, introduces a compelling multiplayer mode. This guide details how to play cooperatively with friends and engage in random online matchmaking.
Playing Hyper Light Breaker with Friends
To play co-op with friends, you'll need to create a private multiplayer room. In the Cursed Outpost hub, approach the counter to the left of Pherus Bit.
Interact with the counter (typically R1 or RB) to access the Multiplayer menu. Select "Create Breaker Team."
Enable "Password Required" and set a password. Invite up to two friends via your platform's social features (PSN, Xbox, Steam supported). The game supports teams of up to three players.
Invited friends will receive an in-game notification (if online) or can join using the provided link. Alternatively, your team might appear in the "Join Breaker Team" list. Have your friends check this list and use the password to join.
Random Online Matchmaking
For multiplayer without friends, public groups are available. You can create your own (without a password) or join a random one.
In the Multiplayer menu, choose "Join Breaker Team," then scroll down and select "Join Random Public Breaker Team."
The game will find an available public team and place you in it. A short load screen will follow.
To leave a multiplayer session, return to the counter in the Cursed Outpost, open the Multiplayer menu, and select the "Disconnect" option (this appears only when in a session). Alternatively, simply quitting the game will also end the session.
