Both players join a multiplayer lobby, choose a mission (if with a friend), and try to complete the mission together without the use of Shrines (checkpoints), are faced with slightly more challenging enemies, and have a combined health bar called the Assist Gauge. This mode is called Yokai Realm with a Companion. The other method of co-op allows more of a single player experience for two players.
The only caveat of this mode is that those looking to be summoned are required to have already completed the mission, at least once on any difficulty. This is the most similar method of co-op to Dark Souls and I apologize for the analogy for those that haven't played Dark Souls. If the host or you (the visitor) dies than the mission ends for you and you are returned to your game (back to the Random Encounters menu). These people (hosts) have to visit Shrines (checkpoints within a stage) and then place an Ochoko cup (a co-op item) at them in order to summon a visitor into their world. To join anothers game in a similar fashion to Dark Souls you use the Random Encounters menu to search for players that are actively waiting for someone to join their game. Dark Souls is an open world game while this game is mission based (separate stages selected from a world map) and thus handles co-op a bit differently. If you're coming from Dark Souls and expecting a similar experience, well it is and it isn't.
