EXOR Studios' next title, X-Morph: Defense, is still on its way at some point this year, bringing with it the thrill of not only shmups but also building towers to defend against waves of enemies. The last time we checked in, we got to see some of the local co-op in action. This time we're looking at some of the enemy behavior and graphic effects, as well as just how intense the combat can get.
Released back in March of this year, Styx: Shards of Darkness was a cause for delight around these parts due to its inclusion of two player online co-op. Its predecessor was already held in high regard, so co-op fans were understandably excited for a chance to experience the stealth-focused game with a friend. One thing seemed to be holding it back, though - a lack of multiplayer save functionality.

Announced through the Major Nelson blog, Dead Space 2 and its co-op friendly sequel Dead Space 3 will be joining the ever-growing library of titles that have been added to Xbox One through backwards compatibility.
Looks like some of the Co-Opticrew will be exiting April just as they entered: revelling in the trials and tribulations of Japanese high schoolers. A fitting end, too. Since most of us are no longer in the realm of education, we need some way to mark the end of the school year, and what better way than to immerse ourselves in drama, homework, and love triangles?
Rather than focusing on the grind for materials so prevalent in Monster Hunter style games, Toukiden 2 does something revolutionary: it concentrates on the more fun experience of slaying big creatures with your friends. Jason and Matt share their thoughts....
Ronimo's 3-vs-3 platform MOBA, Awesomenauts, got a big update earlier this week in order to lay the groundwork for the title going entirely free-to-play next month on the PC. If you already own the game then don't worry, you won't lose anything as it shifts to this new format.
Yesterday's news about Assault Heroes 2 was certainly a joy for Xbox One owners, but what about those poor, underappreciated PlayStation 4 gamers? Who's gonna look out for the downtrodden twin-stick enthusiasts on Sony's flagship console?
It's been quite sometime since we last checked in on Blizzard's other "eSports" title, Heroes of the Storm. The game just relaunched on Tuesday as "Heroes 2.0" and some of the changes may seem familiar to all you Overwatch fans out there.
Piece of Cake Studios has announced that Hacktag, their asymmetrical, 2-player co-op stealth puzzle game, will be hitting Steam Early Access on May 18th. To kick things off, a closed beta is scheduled for May 11th to give curious players a chance to experience the game for themselves. Registration for the beta is currently open (you can sign up on their website).
Sledgehammer Games' hour-long reveal stream yesterday showed off the newest Call of Duty title, Call of Duty: WWII. Much of that time was spent discussing the single-player campaign and multiplayer with a, "oh yeah, bee-tee-dubs" towards the end that mentioned the existence of a cooperative campaign with Nazi zombies.
Grab your guns and strap on your assaultin' boots, cause Assault Heroes 2 is back on the menu. Specifically, it's back on the Xbox One menu, as it's been added to the backwards compatibility list. The game is nearing ten years of age, but hey, twin-stick shooting is twin-stick shooting, no matter what decade it's in.
