River City Girls 2 is one of the best beat 'em ups on this dying planet of ours. Since it launched at the end of 2022, the game has received some welcome updates that added 4-player online co-op and improved the combo system. Given that RCG2 already has cameos from Billy and Jimmy Lee of Double Dragon fame (and Marian is an unlockable character), fans have naturally suggested that the Double Dragon brothers should graduate to playable characters. Today, WayForward announced that it's going to happen!

Konami’s 1989 and 1991 TMNT arcade games stand as two of the most successful co-op arcade games of all time.

Vampire Survivors is such an influential game that lots of games in the same style are popping up, but I bet you already knew that. Each game needs to differentiate itself with a unique theme. The recently released Outer Terror has a horror theme, for instance, and now Sunsoft's Ikki Unite has come along with a feudal Japanese setting. This one is a sequel to a classic Japanese arcade game, but it has lots of Vampire Survivors style and 16-player online co-op to make it appealing to modern gamers. After first appearing on Steam, Ikki Unite is now available on Switch as well.

Cooperative sports games are almost as rare as unicorns, but they do happen from time to time. Goons: Legends and Mayhem from RageCure Games and Firestoke is one such game, an arcade-style hockey game that happens to support 3-player local co-op and online co-op (and even combinations of local and online players). That's special enoug...

Way back in the simpler time of 2008, Arika and Nintendo released a cooperative diving game called Endless Ocean on the Nintendo Wii.
