Multiplayer fun is on offer too, but is co-operative only - pity really, there is probably a lot of potential in multiplayer sneak 'em ups. It plays much like the single player version - each player gets a share of the mission budget and is free to spend it on mercs and equipment as they choose. They then get their mercs to control in one of the single-player missions - no multiplayer-specific maps, unfortunately, so dedicated Shadow Company players will eventually get bored. As an occasional diversion, though, it works fine.
