Orbitals ‘Friend’s Pass’ Will Provide Easier Co-Op And A Free Demo
Shapefarm and Kepler Interactive have announced the ‘Global Friend’s Pass’ for Orbitals, an upcoming Switch 2 exclusive co-op game. This new feature will allow friends to play together more easily, similar to the approach used in other co-op titles like It Takes Two and Split Fiction. The Global Friend’s Pass app enables friends to join co-op experiences without each player needing to own a copy of the game. This builds on the accessibility already provided by Switch 2’s GameShare feature, which allows digital game sharing within households. A free demo will also be available for players interested in trying the game. The move reflects a growing trend among co-op game developers to lower barriers to entry for multiplayer experiences, ensuring that friends can play together regardless of who owns the full game. Orbitals continues to generate excitement as an exclusive title for Nintendo’s new console, with these accessibility features helping to maximize its potential player base.
