Soon, Switch gamers will get to collect wacky Denpa Men at home or on the go.

The New Denpa Men Coming to Switch in July

Back when the 3DS still had an eShop, it was home to a series of downloadable games called The Denpa Men. That series will soon live on in the form of The New Denpa Men, an upcoming free to play game for Switch. While most of the game will be a single-player RPG, it does promise to have a feature in which 4 online players can team up to catch special Denpa Men.

Donkey and Diddy Kong's first proper co-op game is coming back to life on Switch.

Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Announced for a January 2025 Switch Release

The Donkey Kong Country series of platformers is delightful, but the games suffer from a lack of proper co-op. Nintendo and Retro Studios eventually released a proper co-op installment called Donkey Kong Country Returns for Wii and 3DS. A lot of gamers missed that installment, alas. Luckily, Nintendo has now announced Donkey Kong Country Returns HD for Switch, giving a fresh generation of players a chance to get our Donkeys Konged.

More chaos has been added to Invasion's fun and hectic randomized stages.

Alien Hominid Invasion Gets a Major Update With Mecha Frogs, Ice Cream, and More

Alien Hominid Invasion, the Behemoth's long-awaited follow-up to Alien Hominid HD, is a highly cooperative run and gun shooter. Up to four co-op players can team up and complete short, wacky levels as they strive to level up and unlock new gear. Naturally, a game with such a big focus on multiplayer runs needs new content to keep it fresh. That's just what the "Juicy Variety Update," which first arrived on Steam and has now landed on consoles, does. The update offers an invasion of new environments, new objectives, and new enemies to keep things exciting.

This remake of the original Shovel Knight promises to be the definitive version.

Shovel Knight: Shovel of Hope DX to Feature Online Co-op and Other Improvements

The original Shovel Knight was a popular platformer with local co-op and a great retro art style. Yacht Club Games ended up offering that first game as both Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove (all DLC included) and Shovel Knight: Shovel of Hope (just the main game). That's not confusing! Also not confusing is today's announcement of Shovel Knight: Shovel of Hope DX, a remake of the original game that adds 2-player online co-op and many other choice features. So far, we only know it's coming to Steam, but other platforms shouldn't be far behind.

Hopefully, Xbox Series S|X players will experience less stutters and disconnects now.

MultiVersus V1.2 Update Improves Xbox Performance and More

When Warner Bros' and Player First's MultiVersus fully launched in May, the game was not without technical issues. Frame rate stutters and "desync" errors (disconnects) have occasionally marred an otherwise enjoyable Super Smash Bros.-style fighting experience. Thankfully, the version 1.2 update that arrived this week aims to address these issues, hopefully bringing an improved experience to all.

The Five Nights at Freddy's-like horror film comes home as a short beat 'em up with easy Achievements.

Willy's Wonderland - The Game - Co-op Review

Back before the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie came along, an indie horror movie called Willy’s Wonderland beat it to the punch. The low budget, pandemic-era film is actually a lot more fun than one might expect, helped in part by Nicholas Cage’s performance as a silent janitor. The movie received a mobile game adaptation in 2023, ...

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Gets 'Classic II: Dominique's Curse' DLC

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night from 505 Games finally made good on its promise of a co-op mode last month. That hasn't stopped the popular Metroidvania from growing, however; it has just received a new DLC. The "Classic II: Dominique's Curse' DLC adds a new retro-style campaign that makes place after the main game. The game's existing Classic mode is based on the first Castlevania, whereas this new DLC seems to take inspiration from Castlevania II.

V Rising from Stunlock Studios captures the entire vampire experience, allowing players to craft their own "Draculas" and then set out to conquer a medieval world. After first launching on Steam to rave reviews, V Rising has now risen onto PlayStation 5 as well.

Try the Steam demo of this colorful slime adventure for a limited time.

Slime Heroes Is an Adorable Action Adventure Game Coming to Xbox and PC

If cats can go on quests, then it stands to reason that slimes can be heroes. Slime Heroes from Pancake Games and Whitethorn Games stars a pair of peaceful slimes who are forced to go on an adventure. In addition to customizing cutesy slimes (none of which too closely resemble Dragon Quest slimes), this one features a heartwarming story and 2-player co-op. The free Steam demo is available through June 19.
