Version 2.0 of Mario Tennis Aces drops today and brings with it the first of many limited time co-op challenges that you can take on with friends in order to unlock new outfits and new color schemes for the in-game characters. The current challenge is titled "Boo Hunt" and is available starting today until Thursday, October 11.
After announcing that they'd eventually have some kind of online service and then keeping the details of it quiet for over a year, Nintendo rolled out the Nintendo Switch Online Service yesterday. The long and short of it is this: with the exception of free-to-play games, any title you want to play online with friends will require everyone to have an active membership. But, there are some benefits.
While the Mario Party series is mainly known as a collection of competitive minigames where the winner is determined by random chance, the new Super Mario Party that's headed to the Nintendo Switch next month will include something new: a co-op mode. The recently revealed "River Survival Mode" lets you and three friends work together to navigate a river before time runs out.
Announced only a few days ago, the Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle drops today for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. This collection of classic Capcom beat 'em up titles, a couple of which never made it to consoles back when they were released, allows for friends near and far to team up once more to beat up some baddies.
Bossa Studios' Surgeon Simulator makes its way onto the Nintendo Switch today, complete with local co-op play so you and a buddy can work together to definitely save people and not put a TV where their organs used to be. Nope. You'd never do that.
Admit it - we all get tired of being the good guy sometimes. The kindly folks over at LEGO (or, more specifically, Traveller's Tales) recognize this, which is why LEGO DC Super-Villains is heading our way on October 16th. Hopefully, the game will let you dip a toe into the realms of immorality, but instead of dealing with any real consequences, you'll be faced with more cute-sy, "oh no my plastic arms fell off" outcomes.
Shovel Knight, everyone's favorite game about being a knight with a shovel, has been making the digital rounds ever since its initial release in 2014. While it was originally only available on the PC, 3DS, and Wii U, the game eventually made its way to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, all the while amassing a number of expansions and some downloadable content.
I bet you and your friends toiled for days to perfect your prep priorities, minimize raw-to-table times, and synergize dish-washing techniques, all in the effort of achieving that highest of honors: beating Overcooked 2. Well, I've got good/bad news, depending on your perspective. The folks over at Ghost Town Games have added a New Game Plus mode via a free update, so you've got a lot more work ahead of you.
The original Overcooked! was a surprisingly great co-op cooking game, allowing 2-4 local players to team up and bake lots of dishes in a desperate attempt to save the world. Now Ghost Town Games and Team17 have whipped up Overcooked! 2, which adds both online co-op and competitive play to the recipe. As you might expect, the result is a devastating...
EXOR Studios' tower-defense/top-down shooter hybrid, X-Morph: Defense, is headed to the Nintendo Switch sometime in the next few months. That's the good news. The bad news is it appears that this version will be losing out on some of the co-op features that are present on the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 versions of the game. Specifically, the two player couch co-op campaign.
20XX creates a strange problem for itself as the player spends more time in its world. While most games draw from a variety of influences, this one is deeply rooted in just one: Mega Man. However, any player who is a fan of that very particular gaming formula and wanted a few updated and upgraded features, like co-op and level randomization, is in ...
Ghost Town Games' Overcooked! 2 arrived last week on every platform, and if you were a fan of the original, then there's even more for you to love here. A new campaign, a new Arcade mode where you can play random levels with friends, new recipes, and new chefs! We dedicated this week's "Let's Play Co-Op" stream to doing our best to fulfill orders in a timely fashion and (mostly) succeeding.
