How it plays
On PC up to four friends can share a campaign, build bases and vehicles side by side, and help each other through missions, or just build freely in creative mode.
The console versions also play the campaign and creative mode together online, with a lower limit on blocks per world, and four can fight in deathmatch.
It suits groups who enjoy tinkering more than a fast pace.
