Yes. I got to try it out with my friend playing on Windows this weekend, and we had a blast. I can only imagine the chaos that would come from actually having eight people playing at once!

Some highlights included:

• Grabbing the other person and throwing them off the map (which just respawns you at the last checkpoint, so no big deal, but still hilarious). It seems a bit like Gang Beast (which I haven't actually played, only watched), where you can control each hand and its ability to grasp independently.


• My friend trying to swing across a gaping chasm on a rope, Tarzan-style…and missing the other end by inches and falling in. :D


• Learning how to climb ledges—there's a really awesome system where you raise your hands above your head, jump to catch the ledge, then look down to pull yourself up. It actually feels like you're the one doing the climbing, not just pushing a button to tell your character to do it. Jumping off a ledge hundreds of feet high and desperately catching another one to pull yourself up on to makes you feel like Indiana Jones.


• Both of us walking together up a pivoting see-saw to jump to a ledge, simultaneously realizing it was pivoting under our weight, and leaping in sync to catch the ledge and pull ourselves up. Just needed some epic music and an explosion in the background to come out of an action movie. :D

I recorded the entire session, so I hope to have a video of the funnier bits up at some point soon-ish.
