It’s possible to earn more money by betting before a stage, which will in turn increase the difficulty. Whomever scores the most points picks the next level and this is repeated several times. Once a player connects to the online mode and finds a partner, they fight groups of enemies or even a boss together. The more story that’s played through, the more co-op content can be enjoyed. However, the co-op content, including levels, weapons, and costumes, must be unlocked by playing through single-player chapters. The online co-op is a streamlined mode which focuses on combat and eschews the exposition of the story mode. This top-notch gameplay is carried on in the game’s cooperative mode, Tag Climax, which is playable only online.
