The Sniper Elite series allows players to enjoy the thrill of sneaking around during World War II and sniping Nazis. Hey, they deserve it! Although the series is up to part 5 now (which I badly need to play!), Sniper Elite 4 has just launched on iOS. It can be played on iPhone, iPad, and even Mac. The only downside to this news is that the 4-player online co-op of the console and PC versions didn't make the cut for the Apple versions.
Last year, River City Girls, WayForward's seminal beat 'em up RPG, arrived on mobile through the Crunchyroll Game Vault. That partnership was such a success that WayForward is bringing three more games to Crunchyroll's mobile app: Dawn of the Monsters, RWBY: Arrowfell, and Spidersaurs. This is cool news for mobile co-op fans because two of those three games support local co-op. Dawn of the Monsters is available right now, and the other titles are coming soon.
WayForward's River City Girls is an incredible beat 'em up RPG that has spawned a successful franchise and even an artbook. The first game has appeared on every modern platform other than mobile - until now. River City Girls is now available on iOS and Android through Crunchyroll Game Vault. Basically, paying Crunchyroll subscribers get free access to games in the vault, which is a great deal if you're already relying on the service to stream anime.

Last Saturday at PAX East 2017, I had the pleasure of interviewing Alex Verrey, the Director and PR head at LucidSound. We talked about the history and future of the company as well as the different types of headsets it offers gamers.
The Diablo-like indie RPG series Torchlight has amassed quite a following, especially the co-op friendly Torchlight II. Now, the franchise is making the jump to iOS and Android devices with a brand new adventure designed exclusively for mobile devices.
Scroll through the comments page of just about any single player game on Steam and you'll find messages like the following: "game is ok would be better with co-op". Big, impressive titles with hundreds of hours of gameplay are released on a regular basis, but there's still a legion of players out there that refuse to have fun...
You may remember that this last year at PAX East, I went hands-on with a neat little game called Eon Altar. Eon Altar combines a tabletop RPG experience with the modern technology of smartphones and tablets for pretty awesome results. Last week, a kickstarter was launched for the game, and now it's your turn to help out if you want to see this game come to life.
When Terraria finally made its way to mobile devices this fall, we had one major complain: no co-op support. What's the point of mining every block of a vast 2D world without being able to show your friends the vague outline of a butt you carved into the wall? A new update from the game's mobile publisher addresses that problem with local co-op support. Hooray!
Publisher and resident retronaut's best friend DotEmu has announced it will be bringing the Double Dragon Trilogy to iPhone, iPad and Android devices sometime "soon". That's great news and all, but the cool part is it will support two player local co-op play via Bluetooth!
If you've been pecking around with Minecraft: Pocket Edition these past few years, you've probably noticed one major feature has been missing: co-op play. Ok, so there are a lot of features missing from Minecraft mobile when compared to the desktop or Xbox 360 versions, but co-op is a key component to building things like a 1-to-1 replica of old Rome or a rollercoaster ride inspired by the Beetlejuice cartoon. Every grand project needs willing slave workers. Just ask the ancient Egyptians!
