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 Spidersaurs is a charming run-and-gun shooter that launched digitally last year. The game combines the excitement and challenge of Contra with a colorful Saturday morning cartoon style. It also features 2-player local co-op, a helpful feature when blasting away at hordes of dinosaur/spider hybrids. Collectors will soon have a chance to join in the fun now that Limited Run Games has opened preorders for both standard and collector's editions of Spidersaurs.

The 1980s and 90s were home to numerous cartoons that existed primarily to sell toys to kids. Shows like Dino Riders and Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors featured bizarre/creative premises and plenty of merchandizing potential. WayForward draws from that legacy with Spidersaurs, a run-and-gun shooter with a goofy concept (genetically engineered spide...

We've been so excited for WayForward's new run-and-gun shooter, Spidersaurs, that we interviewed the developer ahead of release day. Spidersaurs lets players arm up and blast away at a variety of freaky dino-spider hybrids. It's a deliberately cartoon-like concept that allows for colorful characters and levels, not to mention widely varied and unique monster baddies. Spidersaurs has finally launched on all major platforms, complete with 2-player local co-op.

Spidersaurs is a run-and-gun shooter/platformer that’s coming to consoles and PC on July 14. When a horde of dinosaur-spider hybrids runs amok, gamers will step in as a pair of human test subjects tasked with saving the day. With a humorous, cartoon-like premise, tight Contra-style shooting, and 2-player local co-op, the game should be r...

While it turns out that WayForward's RWBY: Arrowfell won't feature co-op, the same can't be said for another upcoming title from the fan-favorite indie developer. Spidersaurs is due to launch in less than two weeks, and it will definitely support 2-player local co-op. A run-and-gun shooter in the style of Contra 4 (which WayForward also developed), Spidersaurs is a game that fans of the genre won't want to miss.

When Apple Arcade launched, it lured in many console game developers with timed exclusivity deals. One such developer is WayForward, whose Shantae and the Seven Sirens first came to Apple before arriving on consoles. Now, another WayForward title is set to graduate from Apple Arcade to mainstream platforms: Spidersaurs. The colorful run-and-gun shooter/platformer will feature 2-player local co-op, spiders, and dinosaurs when it arrives on consoles and PC later this spring.

Dead Island is one of those franchises that seemed to come out of nowhere and became instantly popular.  The first came was excellent, but did you ever play the 4 player co-op MOBA, Dead Island: Epidemic?  If not, you have until October 15th to give the game a go.  If you did, get on there and spend up your in game currency! 

Dead Island: Epidemic is now available to play via its Open Beta testing! Various other items such as all new weapon modding and loot systems and PvE mode have also been added to the game, so there's no reason to not check out the game once.

Deep Silver's zombie series rages on through its upcoming action title, Dead Island: Epidemic. The game is now available to through the Steam Early Access program for those who can't wait for the open beta to launch.

Since the next installment in the Amazing Spiderman film series is almost upon us, now is the perfect time for Microsoft to let the Web Head enter our Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition worlds. Grab the latest Skin Pack DLC for the game now.

When Dead Island: Epidemic was announced, many scoffed at the change in genre for the franchise. Deep Silver, looking to capitalize on the free to play market, have created a game that blends their series with MOBAs and to some degree, action RPGs. To our surprise there's also a dedicated co-op horde mode built into the game for four players. As these impressions are based on early beta versions of the game, a lot of this could change, but there's a good base here to get an idea what Deep Silver has planned.
