What each player can do here
P1 · Player 1
- Nova: the boss challenge needs his final blow, and his beam builds focus during the fight.
P2 · Players 2–4
- CBR's pick for the partner is Phyla-Vell; TheGameSlayer says any duo works here.
If your skill levels differ: CBR: solo players should alternate heroes, and co-op is a good way to finish him. How to split the roles
The rooftops

- BothChallenge: toss five enemies into pits; the pit edges are small and only in the early areas.
Boss: Annihilus

Boss
AnnihilusThe final boss
- Rush: Rushes back and forth across the rooftop.
- Beam: Fires a beam in a straight line.
- Energy ball: Charges an energy ball, leaving himself open.
- Meteors: Calls down meteors on marked spots.
- CBR: against the rush, stay by the wall and watch his shadow.
- TheGameSlayer: block the rush while facing him to stun him; blocking fails if he hits you from behind.
Extras and notes
- Each player brings two heroes into a mission and can swap between them at any time; a duo special or a call-in from the partner hero helps when things go wrong.
- There is no difficulty setting for the campaign; the fights adjust to how many people are playing, and anyone can drop in or out.
