11Overview22Neverness to Everness features full online multiplayer co-op, allowing players to team up and tackle the game's toughest content together. Cross-platform play and cross-save are supported across all platforms: PC, Mac, PS5, iOS, and Android. Whether you are on a phone or a console, you can party up with friends on any device and jump into cooperative dungeons, social activities, and open-world exploration without restrictions.44Co-op in NTE goes beyond just combat. While Anomaly Dungeons form the core of cooperative gameplay, the multiplayer experience extends into Hethereau's city life with racing, fishing, housing visits, and more. Hotta Studio has positioned NTE as a social experience where players share a living city, not just instanced battles.66Co-Op Dungeons88During the Co-Ex Test (CBT3) in February 2026, two cooperative anomaly dungeons were introduced alongside the Pink Paws Bank Heist. These dungeons are designed for teams and require coordinated play to complete. Online multiplayer is confirmed for all co-op dungeons at launch, and cross-platform play is fully supported in co-op sessions.1010Pink Paws Bank Heist1212The Pink Paws Bank Heist (also known as Pink Paws Bank or simply The Bank Heist) is a team-based co-op dungeon where players plan and execute a heist together. The gameplay loop involves three distinct phases: infiltration, resource theft, and extraction. Players enter the bank facility, navigate around patrolling anomalies, steal valuable resources scattered throughout the building, and then must extract safely before being caught.1414The heist uses equalized stats, meaning every player's gear and character level are normalized to a fixed baseline regardless of their actual progression. A brand-new player performs at the same power level as a fully geared veteran inside the heist. This stat equalization removes gear and level advantages entirely, making the Pink Paws Heist a pure test of player skill, coordination, and game knowledge. It also makes the heist one of the most accessible co-op activities in the game, since even newer players can contribute meaningfully alongside experienced teammates.1616Success depends on teamwork and timing rather than raw combat power. Players take on different roles during the heist, coordinate infiltration routes, divide tasks, and cover each other during extraction. The stealth and extraction focus makes this dungeon appeal to players who enjoy tactical gameplay over brute-force combat.1818The Bank2020The Bank is a team-based Anomaly Dungeon where players must cooperate to clear waves of anomalies within a financial district setting. Team coordination is essential, as specific mechanics require players to split roles and cover different zones simultaneously. Elemental reactions between teammates' characters become critical for clearing tougher enemy waves. Players use their combined Esper abilities and combat system mastery to break through encounter phases together.2222The Bank features equalized stats, meaning every player's gear and character level are normalized to a standard baseline. This ensures fair difficulty regardless of individual progression and prevents overgeared players from trivializing the experience for their teammates.2424The Hospital2626The Hospital is a psychological horror-themed co-op dungeon set in an abandoned medical facility. It supports online multiplayer and stands out as one of the most atmospheric experiences in the game. The dungeon's design leans heavily into horror elements, with atmospheric lighting, unsettling sound design, and encounters designed to create genuine tension. Environmental hazards and anomaly-specific gimmicks demand on-the-fly communication and awareness from the team.2828During beta testing, The Hospital gained attention for being genuinely frightening. Some beta testers and reviewers reported being unable to finish it due to the intensity of the horror atmosphere. The experience has been compared to dedicated horror games rather than typical dungeon content in an action RPG. Having teammates helps mitigate the horror somewhat through safety in numbers, though the dungeon's design ensures that even groups of players face tense, unsettling moments.3030Like The Bank, The Hospital applies stat equalization. Both dungeons reward players with upgrade materials, currencies, and equipment components upon successful completion.3232Cross-Platform Play and Cross-Save3434NTE supports full cross-platform multiplayer. PC, Mac, PS5, iOS, and Android players all share the same servers and can join each other's co-op sessions without any platform barriers. Party invitations work across devices, and matchmaking pools include all platforms. Cross-platform play is fully functional in all co-op dungeons, open-world exploration, and social activities.3636Cross-save allows players to maintain their progress across multiple devices. A player can start on PS5, continue on their phone during a commute, and then switch to PC at home without losing any progress. Account linking is handled through the NTE website or in-game settings, and switching between devices is seamless.3939Social and Open-World Co-Op4141Beyond instanced dungeons, co-op extends to many of NTE's open-world and city-life features. The following activities support multiplayer at launch:4343ActivityDescriptionVehicle RacingRace vehicles against other players through Hethereau's streets. Competitive racing supports multiple participants in real-time.FishingFishing together at various spots around the city. Fishing locations are shared, and players can compare catches.Housing VisitsVisit friends' housing spaces. Players can tour each other's customized apartments and interact with placed furniture.Open-World ExplorationRoam Hethereau together, triggering anomaly encounters and discovering hidden secrets as a group.City ActivitiesMany of the side activities and mini-games in the city, including rhythm games, arcade machines, and mahjong, have multiplayer components.4545Future Multiplayer Content4646Vehicle and housing online multiplayer features beyond the current visit system are planned for future updates after launch. Hotta Studio has indicated that expanded vehicle-based multiplayer (such as cooperative vehicle missions) and deeper housing interaction features will be added in post-launch patches.4848UGC (User Generated Content)5050Hotta Studio has confirmed that User Generated Content (UGC) features are in the planning stages. The UGC system will eventually allow players to create and share custom content with the community. Specifics about the UGC toolset have not been fully revealed, but the concept has been discussed in developer livestreams and press interviews. Details are expected to emerge after launch. UGC could significantly expand the co-op experience by giving players tools to design their own challenges, custom maps, or game modes and share them with friends.5252Tips for Co-Op Play5454Coordinate elemental coverage with your team before entering dungeons. Having characters from at least two different elements allows you to trigger elemental reactions together.Equalized stats in the Pink Paws Heist, The Bank, and The Hospital mean your team composition and skill matter more than your gear level. Focus on mastering your character's kit.Use voice chat or text communication for The Hospital and The Bank, as their mechanics require real-time coordination.The Pink Paws Bank Heist is excellent for casual co-op since it focuses on stealth and extraction rather than demanding high-end builds or deep combat knowledge.Cross-save makes it easy to play with friends across platforms. Link your account early to avoid complications later.Even if you are a new player, equalized stat dungeons let you contribute on equal footing with experienced players.
