The folks at Outright Games are always developing licensed games, mostly based on kids' properties. Well, this time they've grabbed a bunch of kids' properties and rolled them up into a big ball of happiness. The result is Nick Jr. Party Adventure, a puzzle adventure that crosses over Dora the Explorer, Paw Patrol, Blue's Clues, and other franchises in one big platformer. The game will support 2-player local co-op, and it's due on consoles and PC in October.

Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration launched way back in 2022, celebrating the history of Atari with documentary content and a huge collection of retro games. Late last year, the collection received 12 new games in an update. At the time, Atari and Digital Eclipse promised more content would be coming. Today, we've finally learned how that content will take shape: in the form of Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration Expanded Edition, a new edition with even more documentary content and games.

Last month, a small Australian developer called Timesea Studio announced that it would be making a Secret of Mana-style action RPG called Infinity Knights: Xross. Fundraising via Kickstarter was always the developers' plan, and now the Kickstarter campaign has begun. By donating to the campaign, gamers can preorder a console or PC copy of the game and some cool digital bonuses for cheap.

Starship Troopers: Extermination, the large-scale co-op shooter from Offworld, is due to fully launch on consoles and Steam in October. In the meantime, the Steam Early Access version continues to grew and improve, as evidenced by this week's Version 0.8 update. The new update adds a brand new planet, weak points on enemies, persistent bug bodies, and more.

Super Evil Megacorp's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is the first roguelike to feature the TMNT. After first appearing on Apple Arcade (yuck!), it's now heading to Switch. Since the first Switch announcement, the question has been, "When?" Well, it turns out the "when" is none other than July 17. That's pretty soon, dudes!

Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive have revealed a slew of gameplay details for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, the upcoming sequel to the 2011 sci-fi shooter. This includes new information about the 3-player online co-op Operations mode, 6v6 competitive mode, and lots more. In addition to all that juicy info, the freshly revealed gameplay footage looks quite stunning. The wait for Space Marine 2's September release on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC isn't going to be easy!

Taito Milestones 3 from ININ Games is due out on Switch later this year. When the collection was announced, ININ revealed 7 of the games planned for inclusion. One of those was Rastan Saga, the classic barbarian-themed action platformer. This week, ININ let slip that Rastan Saga II and Warrior Blade: Rastan Saga III will also be included. Both of those games are co-op, so Taito Milestones 3 will have at least 7 cooperative games in total!

When PAYDAY 3 arrived with a thud last fall, it paved the way for other games to take the “cooperative heist game” crown. Surprisingly, the one to take that crown actually came out before PAYDAY 3, and it came from the same publisher, 505 Games. That’s right, Crime Boss: Rockay City first launched on Epic and then consoles early i...

Slowly but surely, Crime Boss: Rockay City from 505 Games has built a reputation as one of the best PAYDAY-style heist games around. Teaming up with friends to do crimes the safe way (in video game form) is a whole lot of fun. Crime Boss: Rockay City has just launched on Steam, so we're celebrating with a big giveaway! Ten copies of the game are up for grabs. Step up and try your luck, readers. Update: The contest has ended and winners have been announced.

Today's Nintendo direct was home to all sorts of cool announcements. For me, the coolest of them all was Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics, an upcoming collection of 7 of Capcom's classic Marvel arcade games. Six of those are fighting games, but the seventh is the co-op The Punisher beat 'em up! The collection is coming to PlayStation, Switch, and Steam. Xbox, for some strange reason, was left out of today's announcement.

Disney Illusion Island from Dlala Studios (makers of the most recent Battletoads) and Disney is a charming Switch-exclusive Metroidvania platformer that features 4-player local co-op. With a lovely art style, authentic voice acting, and clever co-op moves, it has always been a quality title. Today's "Mystery in Monoth" update ups the ante with a mysterious new adventure for gamers to enjoy.

Back in the day, the Looney Tunes appeared in an NBA Jam spin-off game called Space Jam, based on the hit movie. The movie was such a hit that it got a painfully bad sequel a few years ago. Remember that? Well, Game Mill Entertainment, makers of TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants, remembers that the Looney Tunes like to play sports. That's why they've just announced Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports, which will offer multiple sports and local co-op too!
