Stellaris News - "Stellaris erweitert Horizonte: Neue Koop-Features in Open Beta Release!"

Stellaris 3.8 'Gemini' Coop Open Beta preliminary release notes have been announced. The Coop Open Beta is expected to start next week, and the branch will remain up until the release of 3.8. The Coop changes are relatively isolated to get better testing of the feature. The Coop Open Beta will include two Cooperative modes, allowing up to five players per empire. Cooperative PvE can be initiated from the main menu, while Cooperative PvP can be allowed by the host of a standard multiplayer game. The release notes also include improvements and balance and bug fixes. However, players should keep in mind that Coop touches a lot of systems in Stellaris, and it is very likely that they will run into synchronization issues or other weirdness. Certain events, such as diplomacy with enclaves or other special entities, may also behave oddly during the beta, with responses going to the first player in the empire rather than the one that initiated contact. The StellARTis competition winners have also been announced.
