It's been awhile since we've looked at Sloclap's third-person action/fighting title, Absolver. The French developer has continued to support and update the game since its launch on the PC and PlayStation 4 with tweaks, balances, and a new 3v3 PvP mode, but the PvE content has still been lacking. However, there is some good news. A new PvE dungeon will arrive in just a couple weeks and it will be free for everyone.
The Forsaken expansion to Destiny 2 dropped last week, and we've been taking it for a spin recently to see what all Bungie has tweaked, changed, and added. We have five (yes, five!) "Let's Play Co-Op" videos for you today as show off different parts from the game and provide some in-depth impressions of this new DLC.
Xbox Live’s Games With Gold program for September 2018 features a solid lineup of co-op friendly games. Single-player loving Xbox One users who have GOLD membership will be able to build their own criminal housing facility in Prison Architect for the entire month of September. Following this, Livelock, a top-down co-op shooter, becomes free Sept. 15th to Oct. 16th.
Destiny 2: Forsaken is out on September 4th, just a scant few weeks from now. While Bungie is putting the finishing touches on their next big content drop, they passed out a trailer of some brand new endgame content for players to gawk over.
Bungie had a new trailer for the forthcoming Destiny 2 "Forsaken" expansion during last night's Sony press conference. Look, this thing and discussion of what's in it is everywhere, so I'm not even going to try and claim some kind of "spoiler warning" here, but if you really don't want to know about the story in the expansion until you're playing it, then just don't read any further.
Bungie held a livestream yesterday where they revealed what they have planned for "Year 2" of Destiny 2. After a rough first year, the development studio needed a "win" here to not only appease their base, but hopefully bring back players that dropped off. There are a number of changes and improvements in the works, most of which will arrive with the next big expansion: Forsaken.
The latest expansion for Destiny 2 dropped last week, and as was the case with the "Curse of Osiris" expansion from last December, "Warmind" adds a new planet, a new NPC, some new gear, and a handful of campaign missions. It also brings with it, unfortunately, a long grind.
In a recent video from publisher Rising Star Games, Trailblazers, the multi-platform racing title, shows off some of the things that make it unique; most notably the paint and race features that add a new element to racing as well as the co-op. While the track painting has been featured before, being able to see it paired with the couch co-op makes it incredibly exciting for us here at Co-Optimus.
The latest iteration of Sid Meier's global strategy game received a relatively positive reception back when it launched in the fall of 2016, but it was still plagued by deficiencies in the series' oft-criticized AI opponents. Over time, though, the Civilization VI developers have worked to alleviate these issues, currently culminating in the game's "Spring 2018 Update", out today.
Last month, IronOak Games finally released their tabletop game meets RPG/rogue-lite, For the King. Yesterday, we decided to equip our finest lutes and bows, and dive into this grand co-op adventure.
Bungie announced last night the latest addition to the Destiny 2 family. The next expansion, named "Warmind," launches May 8th across all platforms. If you're looking for a reason to come back to Destiny 2, "Warmind" might be your ticket for re-entry.
Supergonk's cooperative racing title, Trailblazers, has definitely got some style to it, and a pretty unique idea. Rather than just be the fastest on the track, you've got to work with your friends to paint the road with your team's color, which in turn provides you with a bit of a boost. Want to know what that looks like in action...
After months of silence, Firaxis has quenched our thirst for details on the Rise and Fall update for Civilization VI (that’s 6, in good ol’ Roman) that was announced last year. Originally revealed back in November 2017, the latest details explain the planned additions in more depth, including religions playing a prominent role, different governors and their influence, the ways a Dark, Golden or Heroic age can diminish or amplify gameplay, and much more.
