Double Dragon Gaiden: Online Co-op and More Coming in Free 'Sacred Reunion' DLC on April 4

Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons from Secret Base and Modus Games was one of the best beat 'em ups to come along in 2023, featuring nonlinear game design, a variety of unlockable characters, and an excellent soundtrack. The only missing element was online co-op. That will finally change, thankfully, when the much-requested online multiplayer update arrives on April 4, along with three new characters and more. Double Dragon fans are in for a treat!

Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection Is Now Battling It Out on Consoles and PC

In the early 2000s, the Star Wars: Battlefront series captivated gamers with its combination of ground and air/space battles and large-scale multiplayer. Some years after that, EA confusingly released two new games with the same titles. Adding words to subtitles is hard! Thankfully, the newly released Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection from Aspyr Media has its own distinctive words to let us know that it's a collection of the first two Battlefronts in one convenient package. The collection is out now on consoles and Steam.

The Warner Bros. characters will soon be back to smash each other once again!

MultiVersus Will Return and Fully Launch on May 28

You could be forgiven for having forgotten this, but Warner Bros. and Player First Games released a Super Smash Bros.-style fighting game called MultiVersus back in 2022. The game was in open beta status back then. Surprisingly, Warner Bros. shut down the beta entirely in June 2023, and things have been silent since then. That changes this year, thank goodness, because MultiVersus will be back and fully launched in May. It will even include a new PvE mode, which hopefully means more co-op support.

Manic Mechanics Escapes Onto Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam

Last year, 4J Studios, the makers of Minecraft, released a car-themed twist on Overcooked called Manic Mechanics. The gameplay was great, but being a Switch exclusive, the game could have looked and run a little better. That's no longer a problem, thankfully, because Manic Mechanics has finally arrived on all the other big platforms. It supports 4-player local and online co-op, and it promises lots of party-style fun.

In seriousness, the game is pretty bangin', especially in 4-player online co-op.
