Hello everyone!

We’re excited to share how Stoneguard plays when you’re not facing the night alone. This post breaks down how up to four players share one settlement, one Lifestone, and one desperate fight for survival in co-op.

Four Players, One Last Stand

Stoneguard is built to be survived together. Up to four players share a single settlement, a single Lifestone, and a single desperate fight against the night. Every wall, tower, and workshop is a joint effort, and every mistake is felt by the whole group.

Divide Roles, Share Fate

Co-op in Stoneguard isn’t about separate bases or parallel progress; it’s about dividing responsibilities inside one fortress. One player might focus on resource chains and production, another on wall placement and tower coverage, another on managing survivors and prosthetics, and another on leading the frontline at night.

Build Together, Break Together

When the battle horn sounds, all four players are locked into the same outcome. If the Lifestone falls, the run ends. That shared risk turns every breach into a group problem: who reinforces the wall, who pulls defenders back, and who sacrifices an outer section to save the lifestone.

Turn Mistakes into Legends

Every failed run becomes a story the group tells the next day: the wall that collapsed too early, the desperate fallback that somehow held. Co-op makes those moments sharper, because every decision is argued, planned, and executed together. Across campaigns, your group will develop its own defensive style and its own war stories.

Rally Your Squad

Gather your friends and claim a patch of ruined earth in Stoneguard. Coordinate your builds, divide your roles, and see how long your group can keep the Lifestone burning against ever-stronger waves. In co-op, every victory is shared, and every collapse is a lesson you’ll carry into the next run.
