In the PC/Steam version, Steam offers a feature called Remote Play Together, where only one person needs to purchase the game and invite a friend, simulating a local game, but each person can play from their own home.
Note: In the PC/Steam version, cooperative play is only available in campaign mode, not in Toy Box mode. In the console versions, cooperative play is available in Toy Box mode.
