Cyberpunk 2077 co-op mod NightCoop opens beta October 24

The open beta of NightCoop, a fan-made co-op mod for Cyberpunk 2077, was announced to begin at 00:00 JST on October 24, 2026, according to gamespark.jp. The mod allows up to 8 players to share the same world and progress through the campaign together.

Quests, cutscenes and combat are shared, while each player controls their own V. Guests join the host's save, so quest progress, NPC life status and the state of the city follow the host's data. Each guest keeps their own appearance, level, equipment and cyberware, and shopping and ripperdoc procedures are handled per player.

Story dialogue choices are settled by a majority vote of the players. Cutscenes play for everyone at once, but each V speaks with the voice of that player's own character. Enemies, gunfire, grenades and character deaths are shared, and damage from any player is reflected.

Players can ride in one vehicle as driver and passengers or drive separate vehicles, and story travel sequences are done together. The host can also enable PvP at any time, and can optionally raise difficulty by adding new enemy skills such as grenade use, guarding and smarter AI rather than increasing enemy health.

NightCoop will be distributed on the mod's official website and requires the retail version of Cyberpunk 2077 with patch 2.31. The article states that installing the mod is at the user's own risk.
