Those hoping for Manor Lords co-op or multiplayer are going to be disappointed as the medieval city-builder won’t have these features anytime soon, if at all. If you were hoping to test out your middle ages construction and management skills with or against a friend, you’ll have to go elsewhere, as developer Hooded Horse has been very clear on this being a single-player game. Here’s everything you need to know about the possibility of co-op play in Manor Lords.
The very short answer is that Manor Lords does not have co-op or multiplayer features. There are also no plans in place to add multiplayer later, at the time of writing. Being an early access game, most of the development currently is likely focused on expanding all core feature sets of simulating medieval life and fleshing out its city-building gameplay.

When asked explicitly about a multiplayer or cooperative gameplay mode in aSteam Q&AHooded Horse stated that “the focus is on a refined single-player experience, with no multiplayer or cooperative modes planned at the moment”. There is a little wiggle room in that ‘at the moment’ phrasing, but considering the early access status of the game and the commitment to single player first, any sort of online mode would be way down the line for a roadmap, if at all. So while it’s not impossible, I wouldn’t get your hopes up.© GamesRadar+. Not to be reproduced without permission.
