The Behemoth is an American developer that created one of the best cooperative beat 'em ups of all time: Castle Crashers. After releasing Pit People way back in 2018, the studio has been relatively silent - until now. Alien Hominid Invasion recently launched on consoles and PC, and it's an exciting co-op follow-up to another Behemoth favorite, the run-and-gun shooter, Alien Hominid. This one features online co-op, something the original game never had.
Alien Hominid started its life as a Flash game back in 2002. The game was ported to numerous consoles over the years, most notably to Xbox 360 as Alien Hominid HD in 2007. Now, nearly one million years later, modern players have a chance to enjoy the run-and-gun action with a fresh round of mildly enhanced ports. Alien Hominid HD has arrived on Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles, Switch, and Steam.

It seems like just the other day that the free 'Whiteout' campaign was added to the Switch version of Vampire Survivors. Still, the team at Poncle isn't one to sit on its vampire-repelling laurels. They've already announced Adventures, a new game type that will be coming to Vampire Survivors in its next update. Three adventures will debut with said update, and they will support local co-op to boot.
Today is the official Extra Life Game Day, so obviously, we'll be playing way too many co-op video games, and hopefully raising more donations for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals! Come hang out with us on our Twitch channel, and more importantly, please shoot us a donation!
Shortly before Halloween, Vampire Survivors got a big, free update on Xbox, Steam, and mobile. The Switch version of the update, however, experienced a last-minute delay. Thankfully, the update has finally arrived on the Switch, so up to four local players can now battle monsters (but no actual vampires) in the snowy Whiteout level, Nintendo-style.
The Meta Quest 3 virtual reality headset is a very nice headset in many ways, but the stock strap that's used to hold the headset onto your head is uncomfortable and difficult to adjust.
