Some of the heavy weapons in this game require two players to operate for example the missile launcher needs one to hold and fire and another player to reload the next rocket.

I believe that is incorrect. You can use those weapons solo. Just the reloading is going to take longer. We'll see soon enough

Can you play this solo or is there matchmaking?
I would not advise it. You might get through a couple of missions, but eventually, you will run out of ammo, get swarmed and die.

You need to rely on your teammates for drops, healing, supplies and other goodies.

Eventually, you will get overwhelmed.

What you need to do is find another anti-social bastard like @Gediminas. He wants to solo it, too.

You could party up, not talk to each other, not share ammo etc, on the positive side, you might be able tol draw enough bugs to each other to survive longer.

Here is a scene of him playing the game alone on day one.

There's a Twitch Drop thing where you can watch a streamer playing the game and are able to claim an exclusive set of armor as an award.


This is what the armor set looks like:
