The last time we heard from Undead Labs about State of Decay 2, they were releasing some 4th of July themed weapons and zombies into the game. At the same time, they provided a rough outline of what was next for the zombie-survival game; specifically, DLC that would add a new co-op mode to the game. On Tuesday, they revealed that "Daybreak" will be arriving September 12 and will let four players team up to fight off waves of zombies.
During this year's E3, Ubisoft revealed the next big content update for their action fighting game, For Honor. At the time, the biggest reveal was a new PvP mode (Breach) and a new playable faction, the Chinese. They teased a new PvE mode, but didn't state what that might be. Yesterday, at Gamescom, they finally pulled back the curtain on that mode: 2 player Arcade co-op.
If you're looking forward to playing Tom Clancy's The Division 2, then Ubisoft has a variety of editions they'd like to sell you. The publisher/developer revealed all these versions of the forthcoming sequel during Gamescom, and maybe the most interesting item in all of this is a "Year 1 Pass" for all editions above "Standard," which gives you early access to the free "Year One Episodes."
We heard there was a new brawler/RPG co-op game in the works called Young Souls, but outside of a vague description and a few concept shots, we didn't know too much about what to expect. While we're still a little shy on all the details, developers The Arcade Crew and 1P2P Studios dropped an official announcement trailer recently that has some interesting tidbits in it.
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.
Can you believe it's been nearly a year since Divinity: Original Sin 2 first graced us with its presence on PC? I certainly can't, but then again, I've had trouble keeping track of time ever since the "original" Original Sin came out back in 2014. Fortunately, I've found a nice chronological anchor to moor myself to, as Divinity: Original 2 Definitive Edition comes out on August 31st.
Strange Brigade, the four player co-op action/adventure game from Sniper Elite developer Rebellion, is out next week on PC, PS4, and XBox One. Luckily for us, the chaps across the pond have sent us an early version of the game and allowed us to share our experience with you fine folks on the interwebs!
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 ...
Jagged Alliance is back, the first game since the poorly received Kickstarted Jagged Alliance: Flashback, Jagged Alliance: Rage is a new title being published by THQ Nordic and developed by HandyGames.
I'll be honest, gang. I didn't think we were gonna make it this week, and yet, and yet, here we are. Another glorious weekend lies just around the corner, and by golly, we're gonna take advantage of it. We better take advantage of it, anyway. I'm holding a quiz Monday morning to make sure everyone had a great time, and if not, they're gonna be thrown in, like, Weekend Jail or something equally terrifying.
Fatshark's Warhammer: Vermintide 2 has been doing quite well for itself since it launched last March on the PC, and just last month on the Xbox One. If you've been enjoying teaming up with your buddies to slay Skaven and the hordes of Chaos, but want to visit a new locale, then you're in luck. "Shadows over Bogenhafen" arrives on August 28 and... well, actually, that's just about all we know.
