Troubleshooting: Demo Co-op Not Starting

How to fix 'Can't Start Co-op' in the REANIMAL Demo.

Why won't my friend join the Demo?

  • Version Mismatch: Demo versions update frequently. Ensure both are exactly same build (right-click Steam > Properties > Build ID).
  • Region Lock: Some demos restrict regions.
  • Server Maintenance: Demo backend is temporary and can go down.

Fixes

  1. Verify Integrity: Steam > Properties > Installed Files > Verify.
  2. Restart Steam: Close fully.
  3. Try Online -> Local: If Online fails, try Local Co-op via Remote Play Together (PC Only).
