Directive 8020 Adds Five‑Player Online Multiplayer

Overview

• Supermassive Games released a free update on Monday that adds online multiplayer for up to five players to Directive 8020.
• The online mode recreates the game’s turn‑based Movie Night mechanics with Custom Mode and Round Robin control swaps so each player takes turns on their own screen.
• A new Choice Voting feature shows who voted and how they voted for story decisions, letting groups follow a majority or let individuals break ranks.
• The update applies to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC (Steam), allows mixed geographic groups to join, and requires every participant to own a copy of the game.
• The patch also includes retro silver suit customization DLC and 13 new Premonitions collectibles, and it is presented as a social play expansion rather than part of a larger announced roadmap.
