Since July’s issue of MMOCO, some big things have happened for Guild Wars 2. Details on the long-awaited Path of Fire expansion were released and a preview weekend happened just this last weekend. For August, we’ll be diving into these two topics....
Well, folks, I don't mean to scare anyone, but it's looking like a minor apocalypse happened around these parts. Much of the Co-Opticrew is MIA this weekend, including our Site Owner, Nick, and our Lead Editor, Jason, and o-... wait. If they're gone, does that mean I can put whatever I want in here?
The sequel to one of the most popular (if not only) prison escaping sims on the market, The Escapists 2 will feature new prison levels set in space. If that doesn’t whet your appetite for attempting to escape intergalactic prison systems with your closest friends, I don’t know what will.
English developer Creative Assembly turns 30 next week, and to celebrate the event, they're releasing some special units (30, to be exact) for Total War: WARHAMMER today. These "Regiments of Renown" are added to the five playable races that haven't received any yet from prior updates, specifically The Beastmen, The Wood Elves, Chaos, Bretonnia and (the newly released) Norsca.
Traveller's Tales, developer of LEGO Worlds and basically any other LEGO game that has ever come out, has been supporting the game ever since its release in February through the introduction of "mini" DLC packs. These à la carte expansions add quests, characters, and just generally more things to do.
The latest Deals With Gold have been revealed, and there are a number of co-op titles you can pick up at nice discount. Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2, Demon's Crystals, Grand Theft Auto V, and Forza Horizon 3 are just a few of the games you can snag.
If you've been interesting in trying Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands but didn't want to pay the full price of admission to see if it's for you, good news! There's a five hour trial of the title now available on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
nDreams' zombie beat-em-up title, Bloody Zombies, has a release date in sight. On September 12, you and up to three of your buddies - some of whom may be in VR - can don some brass knuckles and drop some sick power bombs on the undead.
Last night the Co-Opticrew had to serve hard time. Locked up in a virtual prison our crew was tasked with escaping the man, because, well...we didn't do it! We're innocent. The Escapists 2 is the sequel to the wildly popular game from developer Mouldy Toof Studios and published by Team 17. The series now has co-op and with it comes all the antics and strategy that playing with your friends brings.
Ubisoft's venture into the world of Mario took us all a little bit by surprise when it was finally unveiled at this year's E3. The rumors and leaks prior to the event had many wondering what Nintendo was thinking, but seeing Mario and Rabbids Kingdom Battle in action eased many of those anxieties. We only got a little tease of the co-op mode at that time, but now, a new gameplay video provides the pertinent details.
The backwards compatibility mode on Xbox One is like having a cupboard of forgotten games that keeps being filled. Pop in there today and you may just spy a game or two that you own; Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two or SEGA Vintage Collection: ToeJam & Earl.
As with most good weekends, the Co-Opticrew's plans involve tracking down and subsequently beating the crap out of The Actual Devil. There's just something about sucker punching ol' Horns and Tail himself that makes it feel like time well spent.
