Co-op craziness Chained Together is about to get a multiplayer gauntlet for friends to climb. Developer Lab42 Games and publisher Secret Mode have shared that a free update is coming to Chained Together this month introducing the community’s most requested mode to the series. Dubbed 2v2 Race, this new mode pits two teams of two against the clock in a race to the top.
