Nature's Zombie Apocalypse has been in early access on PC since June of 2015. Since then the game has continued to add content, update itself adding online co-op, and announce an Xbox One version in the works. While we still don't have a final date for the game, the latest version can be seen up and running with fifteen minutes of footage from the PC Gamer Weekender.
The Windows 10 Edition of Minecraft got a big update earlier this week that brings the version number up to 1.0; though it's still in beta, apparently. Anyways, along with that update, there's some "Festive Mash-Up" DLC available to purchase so you can deck the halls and all that jazz. The console versions aren't being left out of the DLC fun as they just got the "Fallout Mash-Up" DLC.
We've become a bit used to the idea that in the event of a zombie apocalypse, we humans will survive. I mean, we're humans, of course we will! ... Right?

After they departed from Criterion in 2014, founders Fiona Sperry and Alex Ward, along with another of their fellow, former Criterion co-workers, Paul Ross, formed Three Fields Entertainment.

As November 16th creeps ever so nearer, we anticipate the release of Knight Squad on Xbox One in the full knowledge that Xbox Live Gold members will get it for $0. At this low, low price, the game is surely worth a look, but why not find out for yourself with the new gameplay trailer.
The end of each month brings with it a sense of excitement as we discover what games are coming free to Xbox Live Gold members with the Games with Gold scheme. Like oft before, November 2015 sees some co-op games in the mix; the yet to be released Knight Squad and, the not so new, Dungeon Siege 3.
At a rate only slightly faster than that of actual aeronautic engineering, Minecraft has finally given Survival Mode players a chance to soar around their maps and marvel at their sprawling fortresses and hilarious Simpsons statues. No longer must you clamber up the nearest mountain to snap a fancy photo of your Green Hill Zone replica. Instead, a simple hillside and the brand new cape will probably suffice.
Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition is only a few months out the door, but already it's adding some nice new features. Case in point: version 0.12.1 has added support for cross platform LAN play with the mobile version Minecraft: Pocket Edition. Ain't computers great?
Last year we heard about a game with an interesting take on the whole FPS genre. Gunscape combines world-building and FPS elements to create a game that allows players to build their own levels, and then play them with (or against) friends. Originally slated for a PC and Xbox One release, the title will be arriving on PlayStation 4 and Wii U early next year.

It's not every day you find a mobile game with co-op. It's also not every day that said mobile game looks gorgeous and has explodey bombs, too. Eric Froemling's party game BombSquad for Android and OUYA managed to squeeze all of that into a single package.
Fans of the frenetic mayhem that is Gauntlet might have some group-oriented play to look forward to in Knight Squad.

Currently available on Steam's Early Access, the co-op arena game is destined for Xbox One sometime this fall.
