Following a Fall 2022 PlayStation release in Japan and a Spring 2024 release in Asia, Earth Defense Force 6 has finally been released worldwide on PlayStation and Steam by D3 Publisher. The EDF series has long offered co-op shooting thrills via 2-player split-screen and 4-player online co-op. EDF 6 maintains those expectations while upping the ante...

After several years and much anticipation, Earth Defense Force 6 is finally available worldwide on PlayStation and Steam. The series is famous for its cooperative third-person shooting, unique B-movie atmosphere, and vast assortment of missions. We jumped at the chance to interview Nobuyuki Okajima, who is a Producer at D3 PUBLISHER Inc. about this...

Diesel Legacy: The Brazen Age is an upcoming fighting game from Maximum Entertainment. Through a couple of public playtests, we've been able to try out several of the co-op fighter's unique steampunk characters. There's no public playtest at present (other than an event demo at this weekend's Evo fighting game tournament), but a fresh trailer shows off a sultry new character named Damkina and teases an additional female fighter. Diesel Legacy needs to hurry up and come out!

Two years after Season 6, the first part of Season 6 of Cobra Kai has finally arrived on Netflix. The martial arts drama continues the story of the Karate Kid films, depicting Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence's struggles to train new students and protect them from malevolent karate teachers and students. One of the two existing games from GameMill Entertainment, Cobra Kai: The Karate Kid Saga Continues, features 2-player local co-op. Both games are on sale on various digital storefronts, so now's a great time to jump in and start busting heads.

It's the year of the Ninja Turtles, with not one, not two, but three TMNT games coming out in 2024. The second of those titles is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate, which has just arrived on Switch courtesy of Super Evil Megacorp. Splintered Fate is the first Turtles roguelite, and it features 4-player local and online play. We've spent some time in co-op in order to bring you these detailed impressions.

I don't know if you've heard, but Barbie is a pretty big brand. There was this movie about Barbie last year that made like a jillion dollars, and I guess there's a popular toy line or something too. Well then, it only makes sense that a fresh barbie videogame is in the works. Barbie Project Friendship is coming from Outright Games. It will support 2-player local co-op when it arrives in October.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night will always be remembered as the game that popularized the Metroidvania genre, and one of its key contributors is Koji Igarashi. Following a successful Kickstarter campaign, Igarashi and his studio, ArtPlay, along with 505 Games, released Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night in 2019. Bloodstained is a 2.5D ...

It's a big year for the Karate Kid franchise, with the final season of Cobra Kai debuting on July 18 on Netflix and a (probably way less good) film coming to theaters in December. GameMill Entertainment, makers of TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants, is getting in on the karate action as well. Today, they discreetly announced The Karate Kid: Street Rumble, a beat 'em up based on the first three Karate Kid films. It features 4-player local co-op, and it's coming in September! 

Ever since Outright Games announced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed, the game based on the recent animated movie, we've wondered what it would play like. This one isn't a beat 'em up, after all. Thanks to the release of the game's first animated trailer, we can finally see what the action will be like. Mutants Unleashed will feature 2-player local co-op, and it's coming to consoles and PC in October. 

Fireline Games' Fueled Up has been available on Xbox, PlayStation, and Steam for a couple of years now, but poor Switch has been fuel-free for all that time. That finally changes on July 18 when No Gravity Games brings the game to Switch! Fueled Up is an Overcooked-style game that tasks players with repairing damaged spaceships. ...

TMNT games nearly always feature co-op, and the best of them have both local and online co-op to boot. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate for Switch was initially announced as only having online co-op, but Super Evil Megacorp, the developer, has finally revealed that the game will have 4-player local co-op too! What's more, Splintered Fate will be heading to Steam after the July release of the Switch version.

Double Dragon, the original co-op beat 'em up franchise, is still going strong after nearly 40 years. Double Dragon Gaiden is a big hit, River City Girls 2 is getting Double Dragon DLC soon, and now a 3D entry is coming. Arc System Works recently revealed Double Dragon Revive in a Japanese magazine, showing off some character artwork and screenshots. We don't know a lot about Revive yet, but we fully expect it to support 2-player co-op.
