Is Killer Bean multiplayer or co-op?

No — both Killer Bean games are single-player right now. The 2026 Steam game launched solo-only, and Unleashed never had multiplayer. The good news: online co-op is a planned Early Access feature for the new game. The catch: there’s no date, and the dev has flagged co-op story mode as a tough one to build.
