Is World of Light (Adventure Mode) Multiplayer?

World of Light

Single Player Experience

Unfortunately, the Adventure mode of Smash Ultimate remains single player. You cannot ask for help by bringing in a firend, so if ever you're stuck, simply level up your spirit or change spirits to beat your current level. Alternatively, you can try lowering the difficulty level.

What is Co Op Multiplayer Mode?

World of Light is the only mode that's single player exclusive. Most of the other modes can be enjoyed with a friend. The closest to a co-op experience would be Classic Mode. Otherwise you could play the Mob Smash and Spirit Board with friends. If you are connected to the internet, you can play Online Matches as well.

How to Play Classic Mode Multiplayer

Classic Mode
To play classic mode multiplayer, simply press the left and right shoulder buttons on the second controller once you're in the character select screen. You'll know it worked if you can see two character portraits next to the scroll at the bottom.

How to Play Mob Smash Multiplayer

Mob Smash
You can play Mob Smash by pressing the left and right shoulder buttons on the second controller once you're in the character select screen, just like in Classic mode. You can take out hordes of enemies together!
