Like with all LEGO videogames, there's 2-player split-screen co-op for the whole story and free roam exploration outside of the main story.

CHARACTER CREATOR[]
Like previous Lego games since "Lego Marvel Superheroes 2", you can create up to 10 custom playable characters using character pieces you unlocked from completing a level in the main story, or through side missions. You can also give your custom character abilities another character has. The character creator can be accessed in Gru's underground laboratory.
DIFFERENCES FROM THE FILMS[]
- In levels where Gru (or another character) works alone, some levels alter things up by having an additional character join in to support the game's 2-player co-op functionality.
