miHoYo has confirmed that the main content of the co-op action game "Primordial Knots" can be played solo, with teaming up being optional. On September 23, the developers answered ten frequently asked questions raised by players after the game's initial reveal, providing further details on co-op gameplay, launch platforms, and the world setting.
The game's co-op gameplay revolves around teammate roles and joint "Divine Essence Seizure." During the gamescom 2026 preview event, the demo featured four-player teams; the maximum party size and related rules for the full release are still being adjusted and will be announced separately by the developers.
Regarding platforms, the developers confirmed that a PC version will be available at launch, with information on other platforms to be announced later. In addition to challenging bosses, players can explore the mythological world, experience the story, and meet companions; during breaks from combat, they can also play instruments or soak in hot springs with friends.
Players take on the role of the "Weaver," a messenger who once traveled between heaven and earth with a special mission, but lost their power due to a certain incident and fell to the ground. In a world where divine authority has vanished and order has collapsed, the Weaver will face mysteries and powerful divine enemies, grow alongside companions, and search for their lost self.
The developers also introduced the worldview: the divine essence from the beginning of creation shaped the Weavers but failed to grant them enlightenment. The remaining gods and living beings have been corroded by the "Calamity," turning into disasters and creating "Dead Knots." The Weavers must sever these tangled Dead Knots to prevent the world's destruction. The game places different mythologies within the same world, connecting the stories through emotions shared by humanity.
Characters do not need to be obtained through gacha; all characters can be unlocked through gameplay; specific monetization methods are still under discussion by the development team. In combat, Divine Skills cover effects such as attack, defense, and support, which can be recombined based on gameplay style or team composition. The difficulty design aims to be accessible even for players new to action games, while still offering depth in terms of controls, coordination, and skill combinations.
