FC 28 Co-Op Mode Guide — Play FUT with Friends
FUT is better with friends. Co-Op lets you team up and control one squad together online. Here's how to set it up, which modes support it, and how to dominate as a duo.
How to Set Up Co-Op
- Go to the FUT main menu and invite your friend from the social tab
- Once they join, select a game mode that supports co-op
- The host's squad is used — make sure it's your best team
- Assign player control areas (attacker/defender or left/right)
- Start the match and communicate via voice chat
Available Co-Op Modes
| Mode | Co-Op? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Division Rivals | Yes | Full rank/rewards progression |
| Squad Battles | Yes | Against AI, shared rewards |
| Friendlies | Yes | Objectives count for host |
| FUT Champions | No | Solo only |
| FUT Draft | No | Solo only |
Best Co-Op Tactics
Player Control Split
- Option 1 — Attack/Defense: One player controls attackers, one controls defenders. Clearest split.
- Option 2 — Left/Right: Each player controls their side of the pitch. More equal involvement.
- Option 3 — Free Control: Both players switch to any player. Requires excellent communication.
Formation Tips
- 4-2-3-1: Clear defensive/attacking zones — easy to split control
- 4-3-3: One player takes CDM + CBs, other takes CAM + wingers + ST
- 3-5-2: Wide play from wing-backs — each player takes a side

Communication Tips
- Use voice chat: Essential for co-op success. Discord or party chat works best.
- Call your passes: "I'm sending it left" or "through ball coming"
- Coordinate pressing: Both pressing at once leaves gaps — designate one presser
- Set piece roles: Decide who takes corners, free kicks, and penalties before the match
Co-Op Rewards
- Division Rivals: Both players earn full Rivals points toward weekly rewards
- Squad Battles: Both earn Squad Battles points (based on host's performance)
- Objectives: Some objectives specifically require co-op wins — check the objectives tab
- No penalty: Co-op rewards are the same as solo — there's no downside to playing co-op
