Games are fun, but they are arguably better with friends, and RUNE II is a game that both supports and benefits from co-op play. That said, here is how to play co-op with friends In RUNE II.

To host a RUNE II game, click the Host Co-Op Game option. You will then see a menu that looks similar to that of the single-player, letting you create a new game.
