This DLC, initially announced shortly after the game’s launch, promises to connect seamlessly with The Messenger, Sabotage Studio’s Metroidvania successor. As a prequel to the ninja platformer, Sea of Stars sets the stage for some of the characters that fans will recognize from the hack-and-slash game.
Co-Op Mode In the Works
Additionally, the studio has confirmed that they are still actively working on a co-op mode for Sea of Stars. Fans can expect more details on this feature later in the year. Sabotage Studio shared this update in a response to a fan inquiry on Twitter.
We're still working on it. More details will come later this year! 🙂

It’s crucial to mention that this won’t be a full-fledged couch co-op mode. Instead, players can look forward to a drop-in, drop-out experience where the main player retains control over initiating combat and moving between areas. One exciting aspect of the upcoming co-op mode is the introduction of co-op exclusive areas, such as a brand new dungeon designed specifically for two players.
Fans Eagerly Await New Content
With these updates on the horizon, fans of Sea of Stars have much to look forward to. The game’s captivating story and nostalgic charm have already won the hearts of many, and the addition of new content through the DLC and co-op mode promises to enhance the experience further.
For now, enthusiasts should stay tuned to Sabotage Studio’s social media channels for the latest updates as they become available.
As we wait for these thrilling additions, it’s a great time to revisit Sea of Stars and immerse yourself once more in its rich, retro world.
