Hey Dudes!
The wait is over, the Deux or Die update is here in all its 2-player glory, so it’s time to head back to the lands of Upel with your trusty squire to dish out some justice. Since we're assuming you're playing the game on Steam if you're here, good news; Even though the update is couch co-op, it supports remote play through Steam specifically. If you missed the previous posts and want to know all about the way your new companion and second playable character adds to the game go check out: [url=https://steamcommunity.com/games/374190/announcements/detail/3665405726559540677]Introducing Cervul pt.1[/url] and [url=https://steamcommunity.com/games/374190/announcements/detail/3692428039455111394]Introducing Cervul pt. 2[/url].

If you already own the game, congrats, you own the update. What are you still doing here reading when you could already be playing? If you don’t own the game, now might be a good time to buy it, we even put it on sale to celebrate the update. We love paying rent, and you get to play a sweet game at a discount, that seems win-win.
Thanks a ton for waiting while we worked on this update, it’s taken a lot of effort and time from everyone on the team to add a second player mode. The game was obviously always originally intended as a single-player game, but after launch we knew that adding co-op felt cool and good, so we’ve been toiling away at it since quickly after launch and we hope you have a good time with it.
