Did you know that Unicorn Overlord has a multiplayer mode? It’s unavailable to the player immediately, meaning you need to unlock it through main story progression.
In this guide, you will discover how to unlock online battles in Unicorn Overlord and how multiplayer works.
Unicorn Overlord: How to unlock online battles
To unlock online battles in Unicorn Overlord, players need to progress through the story until they reach Baumratte and unlock the Coliseum. This becomes available after completing the “Another Prince” main quest.
After completing the Another Prince quest, the game will inform you that a new “Coliseum” area is now available at Baumratte. Head to Baumratte and select the Coliseum option from the menu. This will bring you to the Unicorn Overlord multiplayer.
How the Coliseum works in Unicorn Overlord
The Coliseum offers the player three different choices. You can choose between Online Battle, Offline Battle, or Prize Exchange. I’ve detailed each below.
- Online Battle: Fight online against other players’ units.
- Offline Battle: Fight offline against computer-controlled units, which gets more challenging the longer you stay in the fight.
- Prize Exchange: Exchange Coliseum Coins for a variety of rewards and items. Coliseum Coins are earned from online and offline battles.
If you choose online battles, you’ll have the opportunity to change your Defensive Unit. Depending on who you pick as the Defensive Unit will determine who your friends or strangers will fight against in online battles. You can fight strangers by selecting “Ranked Match,” or you can battle your friends by selecting “Friend Match.”
Note: Each player can participate in 10 online battles a day, and if you reach the maximum, you earn 200 Coliseum Coins.
Fighting in the Coliseum at Baumratte is a great way to practice your skills and prepare your unit formations for the more challenging stages later in the game. It’s also a great way to earn bragging rights with your friends if your unit outshines theirs on the battlefield.
Multiplayer is a pretty well-hidden feature in Unicorn Overlord, but it’s not the only one. Did you know that you can romance a bunch of different characters? Check out our guide on all romance options in Unicorn Overlord so you can start a relationship with a chosen character!
