3.8 "Gemini" Coop Open Beta available now

Hello Stellaris fans, We are happy to announce the release of our 3.8 Coop Open Beta! It is now available on a separate branch in Steam. Instructions for opting in to the Open Beta branch: Open the Steam client [olist]

Go to Library

Right click "Stellaris" in the list of games

Select "Properties..."

Go to the "Betas" tab

Select "stellaris_test - 3.8 Coop Open Beta" in the drop down [/olist] This should trigger a new update to Stellaris that lets you enjoy our new Coop mode early! Please note that the feature is still in development and does have a few issues and instabilities. Reporting any issues you encounter would be welcome, and you may do so in our Bug Report forums. Also note that the game now runs in DX11 by default. You can override this by adding a startup argument in steam. Instructions for running the game with DX9:

Finally, as always, the team has done a great deal of improvements to the game that are also available in the 3.8 open beta. Please find the patch notes below. STELLARIS 3.8 COOP OPEN BETA PATCH NOTES ############################################################ #################### VERSION - 3.8 COOP OPEN BETA ###################### ############################################################ Features

Added two Cooperative modes, allowing up to five players per empire. More information can be found in Stellaris Dev Diary #293.
Cooperative PvE can be initiated from the main menu - all players that hotjoin the hosted game will join the primary players empire. This mode is primarily intended for teaching new players or for lower intensity cooperative gameplay.
Cooperative PvP can be allowed by the host of a standard multiplayer game. When enabled, empires can open themselves up to allow other players to help control their empire. We expect this game mode to be useful for competitive team play.
