BioWare's Anthem is a video game that was released in February 2019. Part of me wants to stop there and just leave this as a purely factual post. The other part has some things to say about the aforementioned game. In the span of about a week and a half, it has become one of the most talked about releases so far this year, but not exactly for positive reasons. For this week's "Let's Play Co-Op," Mike and I did our best to talk about the good, the bad, and the co-op, though if I'm honest, it is weighted towards "the bad."

The first DLC pack for Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes arrives today on the Nintendo Switch. This continuation of the No More Heroes franchise is kind of a departure from the past two entries, featuring a top-down, button-pressing, hack-and-slash adventure with everyone's favorite otaku, Travis Touchdown. The new paid content adds a new playable character, two new skills for that character, and a new text adventure.

Year 2 of Ubisoft's planned content updates for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands comes to a close today with Special Operation 4. This update includes a number of new goodies, like new PvP maps, a number of updates, and a whole new PvE mode called "Guerrilla." Yes, it is wave-based survival.

The Division 2, the latest game from Tom Clancy and his posse of game developers, has an official release date of March 15th.  For anyone who simply can't wait until then, though, there's an Open Beta scheduled for March 1st through March 4th.

Slowly but steadily, SEGA has been detailing various aspects of the upcoming Team Sonic Racing.  With the May 21st release date looming on the horizon, we now have information on another of the game's tracks:  Frozen Junkyard.

Co-Optimus is teaming up with Cloud9 Table Top, Elderwood Academy, Drive Thru RPG, and Cantrip Candles for the ultimate Dungeons and Dragons themed giveaway. There is seriously everything you could absolutely want here for the total immersive experience - including the scented candle!

The Co-Opticrew isn't overwhelmingly Anthem'd up this weekend, but it's certainly on our radar.  Jason and Mike, in particular, continue their roles as bastions of the "sci-fi number-guns" genre, but they may welcome others into the fold in future weeks.  Perhaps, once Eric is finished with "New York number-guns", he'll pursue broader horizons.

The latest entry in the God Eater franchise, God Eater 3, is something of a departure from the previous games. Bandai Namco changed the developer - Shift was responsible for the first two titles and Marvelous Inc, who worked on Soul Sacrifice, was brought on for this one - in order to "bring in a breath of fresh air" and rework many of the systems that they felt had become overly complex. The result is, in my opinion, the best God Eater game to date and the one that is the most approachable for newcomers (if you're ok with some anime).

Ubisoft's latest venture, The Division 2, is right around the corner.  A free open beta will be available from March 1st through the 4th, and the full release is scheduled for March 15th.  Despite that, there are still plenty of folks hankerin' for a taste of what the game itself will be like.

Open the floodgates!  Starting today, Rocket League players from each and every platform can become friends with each other, join each other's clubs, and (most importantly) party up together!

UPDATE: The Enhanced Editions of Baldur's Gate, Baldur's Gate 2, and Icewind Dale do not support co-op or any multiplayer at this time. They are single-player games only. We have removed the console versions from our database. The original news post is below.

The first big update for QC Games' Breach hits today and adds a whole new map, a new boss to fight, a new character to play (a healer, yay!), and some new foes to fight in the Tokyo map. Alongside this update, the game is also getting a price drop for the "base" package; the $25 Founder's Pack is going away in favor of the $10 Early Access Pass, and that's a good asking price, IMO.
