What Steam lists
The current Steam feature list explicitly includes single-player and online co-op. It does not advertise local or split-screen co-op in the listed features, so this page should not promise couch play without a current in-game confirmation.
What to check in the client
If a local option is added or hidden behind a mode selection, capture the exact menu wording, supported controllers, player limit, and whether saves or loot behave differently from online play.
The safe answer
Until that check is documented, direct players to the online co-op guide and Steam page. This is a better answer than copying an unsupported local co-op claim from a search snippet.
How to verify local play
Check the current client for a local or split-screen option, then record controller support, player count, save behavior, and whether the mode is separate from online hosting. Do not infer support from another roguelite.
If the menu does not expose local play, show the exact Steam feature list and direct readers to the online guide instead of promising a mode that may not exist.
A useful answer page
Keep the first paragraph direct, then show the evidence, the test date, and the alternatives. Players asking this question usually need a buying decision, not a long theory section.
Update this page whenever the developer adds a multiplayer mode or changes the store feature list.
