    Hey there,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    Sponsored Dire Marsh is set up for 2–3-player crews (no solos, no Rook), and it uses the same matchmaking rules as standard Dire Marsh. That means you can still play as a duo, but only if Crew Fill is turned off before you launch. If Crew Fill is on, the game will try to add a third runner to your crew, so you’ll end up in trios even when you queue as two.

    If you’re already disabling Crew Fill and still getting forced into a three player crews, please share:

    • Your Platform
    • The rough time of the run
    • A short video showing:
    1. The Zone Select screen showing Dire Marsh: Sponsored selected
    2. Your crew screen just before launch (showing 2 players + Crew Fill turned off)
    3. The match intro clearly showing that you loaded into a 3-player crew

    Please use your platform's capture button to take a video. You can upload the footage to a public video hosting site, like YouTube, then post the link here and we’ll be glad to take a look.
