Hyper Light Breaker Multiplayer Guide: Conquer the Darkness with Friends!
Hyper Light Breaker, the 3D rogue-lite successor to Hyper Light Drifter, introduces a compelling multiplayer component. This guide details how to team up with friends or join random online matches.
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 three-player teams.
Friends can join via the invitation or, if they're already in-game, through the "Invitations" tab. Alternatively, your team might appear in the "Join Breaker Team" list. Ensure your friends know the password.
Random Online Matchmaking
For solo players, public matchmaking is available. In the Multiplayer menu, choose "Join Breaker Team," then scroll to "Join Random Public Breaker Team."
The game will find an available public team (no password required) and place you in their session. Leaving a session is done via the Multiplayer menu's "Disconnect" option (appearing only when in a multiplayer session) or by quitting the game.
