• Online co-op: Publisher text for the Switch edition says to play online with a friend.
• Most players online: The text says two players can play online or locally. Product data lists a maximum of 2 online. Local play there needs two consoles, so local co-op is left out.
• Platforms: Sold on Switch as The Full Package, which bundles the three mission packs and DLC items. The page marks Switch 2 as supported, with behavior consistent with Switch, so Switch 2 play is backward compatibility, not a separate edition.
• Free base co-op: The Switch edition has a paid price.
