~~As of (14 December 2011) the multiplayer~~ was briefly explained on Mojang's blog<ref name="blog1">http://mojang.com/2011/12/12/cobalt-pre-orders-around-the-next-bend/</ref>, and also on the Oxeye Game Studio blog.<ref name="blog2">http://www.oxeyegames.com/no-networking-shenanigans/</ref>

[[Multiplayer]] mode was briefly explained on Mojang's blog<ref name="blog1">http://mojang.com/2011/12/12/cobalt-pre-orders-around-the-next-bend/</ref>, and also on the Oxeye Game Studio blog.<ref name="blog2">http://www.oxeyegames.com/no-networking-shenanigans/</ref>

==How It Will Work==

~~As of now, only hot seat multiplayer (local)~~ is in the game ~~for sure~~ but [[Developers|Jacob William Jervey]] ~~posted a~~ blog on Oxeye's site~~<ref name="blog2">http://www.oxeyegames.com/no-networking-shenanigans/</ref> that basically says~~ that he would really like ~~Network multiplayer (connect to a server from anywhere)~~ to be in the game's final version, ~~but~~ as of right now, it's ~~no-where~~ near done and may not end up being implemented at all.

Only '''[[Local Multiplayer]]''' is currently in the game, but in [[Developers|Jacob William Jervey]]'s blog post on Oxeye's site it is indicated that he would really like '''[[Online Multiplayer]]''' to be in the game's final version. However, as of right now, it's nowhere near done and may not end up being implemented at all.<ref name="blog2">http://www.oxeyegames.com/no-networking-shenanigans/</ref>

Note: Only one keyboard can be used at one time in multiplayer.
