After completing the main storyline of Sons of Sparta, you will unlock the challenge mode, which can be played solo or in local 2-player co-op.

??? why did you lock the co-op until the first full playthrough of the game? I don't want to play it twice — I want to play it once with my wife. Now I'm trying to get a refund because of false advertising…
