The aliens are on their way, but at least they told us when to expect them. Cybernate's co-op arcade platform shooter (with co-op!) Super Mutant Alien Assault will land on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on July 12. Bring a tinfoil hat.

Housemarque's Alienation may well be my favorite twin-stick shooter released this year. From the world progression to the loot progression, there's always a new challenge and better gear waiting just around the corner. While the game has been an online co-op only affair since its launch, the much requested local co-op option will be getting added in a free update on July 5.
While many folks are familiar with the Monster Hunter series of games, Bandai Namco's Gods Eater Bust title was largely overlooked in the States. That may, in part, have been due to it being a PSP only game.

With Steam's 2016 Summer Sale in full effect, we here at Co-Optimus decided that it might be best to provide some sort of guide to help weary bargain hunters navigate the proverbial labyrinth of deals. After all, what kind of cooperative gaming site would we be if we let our buddies get bogged down in the free-to-play quagmire?

Break out the animal bones and put the witch doctor on speed dial, it's time for some real voodoo magic! Publisher Nicalis has just released Over the Top Games' co-op roguelike Full Mojo Rampage on Xbox One and PS4. Finally, a relevant excuse to pledge my soul to a voodoo demon!
Games with Gold comes around once a month like a co-op colossus giving Gold members of Xbox Live up to four 'free' games. There have been a wonderfully disproportionate number of co-op titles to be had. This month is a little light, with only one of the four games being co-op, but when that game is the stone cold classic Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2, who cares?
Hey there Wii U owner. Remember when Minecraft: Wii U Edition became one of the top selling games on the system? Nintendo and Microsoft are aiming to keep that momentum going by releasing a retail copy of the game bundled with a bunch of skin and texture packs.

We've been hearing about it for the past few weeks, and the day of HAWKEN's rebirth on the consoles is fast approaching. The free-to-play mech shooter will be released on Xbox One this Friday, July 1, and will be released on the PlayStation 4 next Friday, July 8.
2K has finally released some details about the paid DLC co-op missions for Battleborn. Each of these new "operations" appear to revolve around one of the game's characters and some part of their history. The first one, "Attikus and the Thrall Rebellion," will allow you to relive Attikus' recollection of the insurgency he lead against the Jennerit.
Sometimes you have to dig deep...very deep into the Steam sales to find a gem. Sure it's easy to recognize the AAA titles and their 30% off values, but finding something that provides a real bang for your buck type scenario can be challenging amongst the thousands of titles. We did the work for you and found your next co-op game.
Have you ever really enjoyed playing an online multiplayer game, only to have the server abandoned? This is one of the most frustrating aspects of online multiplayer games, but it does happen to all games eventually.
