Is Resident Evil 4 co-op?

Can you fight fear and evil together?

Resident Evil 4 is one of the best entries in Capcom's Resident Evil series. So popular that it is receiving a remake, allowing fans to experience it in beautifully updated graphics. With remakes, fans can expect the game to uphold the original features such as characters and weapons, but sometimes new ones are added. This may leave you wondering if there is co-op in Resident Evil 4.

Does Resident Evil 4 Remake have co-op multiplayer?

The answer is no—Resident Evil 4 will not be co-op or have multiplayer. The original title was not co-op, so this one is also not co-op. Despite Leon and Ashley working and traveling together, Resident Evil 4 is a single-player experience.

While this disappoints fans looking to play with a friend or rely on a buddy for the intense horror moments, Capcom has proven that Resident Evil 4 works as a single-player experience and does not need multiplayer. The original Resident Evil 4 is one of the series' most popular and iconic games, so the remake is smart to follow in its footsteps.

Throughout the game, Leon will have companions, including Ashley and Luis, but a second player cannot control these. You will be able to play as Ashley, but this just transfers control from Leon to her, keeping the game single-player.
