Hey Hellsweepers!
We're almost at the finish line! Hellsweeper VR will be dropping in about three more weeks. It has been one hell of a long road and we simply cannot wait for everyone to experience everything the game has to offer.
Just last week, we released our co-op trailer, a mode that allows you to band together with a friend to descend into Hell. Today, we'd like to dive deeper into the game's co-op mechanics.

What can you do in co-op mode?[/h2]
Apart from the primary objective - annihilating Hell's twisted souls together - we've compiled an FAQ list from questions posed by our cherished community on Discord. We believe this will help you get a better grasp of the co-op mechanics and the fun features we've integrated:
Q: Can I play Hellsweeper VR with my friends if they’re using another device?A: We are aiming for crossplay across PCVR, Quest 2 and PSVR2.
Q: Will my teammate and I be presented with the same blessings, weapons, and boons?
A: No, each player is assigned distinctive blessings and boons to promote strategy and teamwork.
Q: Can I use or borrow my friend's weapons during gameplay?
A: Absolutely! Friends can borrow each other's weapons, like guns or swords. The weapon's level depends on the wielder's own progression, but the weapon's traits remain consistent. However, if a weapon requires bullets, you can't manually reload it unless you've equipped that specific skill.
Q: Can I combine my magic with my ally during gameplay?
A: Yes! For instance, if you're wielding a Volt ball and your friend has a fireball, you can combine them to produce powerful effects, like lasers. Collaboration can lead to some electrifying results!
Q: Can I infuse my friend’s weapons with magic?
A: Yes! Players can infuse each other's weapons with elemental magic. This means one player can focus on a full magic build, while the other hones in on weapon expertise. You can see this in action on our devlog video.
Q: Is there an option to reload a friend's gun?
A: If both players have equipped the reloading skill, they can indeed reload each other's guns. Though not the most efficient method, it's a fun tactic to try out!
Q: How does "bullet time" work in co-op?
A: It's similar to how it works in our first game Sairento VR. Activating bullet time in co-op only affects the enemies within the bullet time bubble.
Q: Most importantly… can I pet my friend’s Hellhound?
A: Players can definitely pet an ally's hellhound. But be aware, the hellhound stays loyal and only obeys its original owner, the one who equipped it during skill selection.
[h2]Accessibility and Options[/h2]
To ensure everyone can customize all settings to their comfort, Hellsweeper VR offers a wide range of accessibility options ranging from rotation, somersault speed and even tunelling.
All options are saved in your individual settings so all players are able to experience the game within their own comfort levels. Don't forget to set these up on your first startup!
VR will not be limited to the platform your friend plays.
[h2]So are ready to team up and go through Hell together?[/h2]
