The second title we checked out during our "Co-Op Triple Header" stream on Monday was Flow Fire Games' top-down shooter SYNTHETIK. Nick and Locke did their best to keep up with our stream of questions for them while also manually ejecting clips and actively reloading their guns.
The second DLC pack for Call of Duty WWII is titled The War Machine and you can check out all the game-changing features it includes - ranging from more Zombies to the V2 bomb (It’s a rocket-propelled missile, I Googled it so you don’t have to) - in the trailer below. Even if undead and explosives aren’t your thing, the DLC also brings new competitive multiplayer maps, including Egypt and Dunkirk as well as the Operation Husky mission that takes place in Sicily. All of this DLC is available now on PS4 and on an unannounced date in May for Xbox One and PC.
Happy Wednesday, everyone! If you missed out regular Monday night stream (kicks off every Monday at 10:00 PM EDT over at twitch.tv/cooptimus) this week, we covered not one, not two, but THREE co-op games that have seen some form of release recently. Up first was Laser Guided Games' deck-building meets RTS title, Golem Gates.
The days of paid entry into Phoenix Labs' action-RPG, Dauntless, are coming to a close. On May 24, the title will shift from Closed Beta to Open Beta and will be available for all to play. If you're tired of those Tempered pickles in Monster Hunter, then now may be good time to take on some Behemoths instead.
Last year, Blizzard started something new with their popular team-based shooter, Overwatch: limited time co-op missions that represent defining "story" moments for the characters within the game. Dubbed "Overwatch Archives," the first of these was the "Uprising" event last April that took players through Tracer's first mission as a part of the group. A new event, called "Retribution," kicks off today and takes players through the mission that marked the beginning of the end for the peacekeeping group.
There is a sweet spot in the media we enjoy - whether it’s destroying big bad bosses in our favorite game or an unbelievable plot twist in a movie that blew our minds - where it just ‘clicks.’ Tesla Vs. Lovecraft ‘clicks’, but it does so at the exact moment that it begins to lose steam and fall apart, which is unfortun...
Of all the Metal Gear Solid titles, the third is hands-down my favorite and I don't think I'm the only one with that opinion based on Konami's recent announcement. Starting today and going until April 24, 2018, you can team up with a few friends and enjoy a special co-op event in Metal Gear Survive that will net you some special Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (snake eater) themed rewards.
The folks at Ubisoft are bringing back everybody's favorite stealth operative: Sam Fisher. Tomorrow, a big update will drop for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands, officially kicking off their Year 2 content, that will add a special PvE mission for you and your Ghost squad to tackle. While the mission will be available in the game for the foreseeable future, there are special rewards you can only earn if you complete it within the next month.
At the end of last week, Fatshark released an update for their rat exterminator simulator, Warhammer: Vermintide 2, that addressed one of the bigger concerns: the sudden difficulty spikes. There are a number of tweaks and changes within Patch 1.0.5, but the big ones are to each of the main characters and the increased Hero Power cap for Veteran difficulty.
Koei Tecmo’s first Attack on Titan game was a surprisingly great adaptation of the hit anime and manga series, with fast-paced and unique gameplay and better than average online co-op. Less than two years later, Attack on Titan 2 has arrived on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Switch, and Steam. The sequel features another strong campaign and several...
April is here bringing with it content patches and expansion announcements for MMOs. For this installment of MMO Co-Opportunities, we’ll be discussing the new Elder Scrolls Online expansion, the release of Secret World Legends’ next story installment, and the start of Season 14.5 in Star Trek Online....
Slowly but surely, it's getting warmer around these parts, so the Co-Opticrew is enjoying the weather with some older titles. Maybe the rising temperatures are making us nostalgic for the days of summer vacation, or maybe we're subconsciously preparing ourselves for a bout of the Summer Doldrums. Either way, many of us will be digging into the archives for the next few days.
