Hoard Launches on PC Without Local Co-Op, Online Only

Nick Puleo

The previously exclusive PSN title Hoard has launched today via Steam - and fans of the game may have noticed something suspiciously missing from their game - namely local co-op. While the PSN version of the game supported both local and online play, including local with online players at the same time, the PC version of the game shipped with online only support for four player online co-op.

Hoard Bringing Dragons & Treasure to Your PC

One downloadable game that may have snuck past everyone late last year in the holiday rush was Hoard. The PSN "dragons are the good guys" title was quite good, though the co-op was so limited as to be very disappointing, as you can read about in our review. It turns out slaying knights, kidnapping princesses, and burning down buildings with a co-op buddy gets a bit old when there's only a couple maps.

This edition of On The Download addresses the dangerous mental, social, and emotional disorder known as Hoarding. Hoarders are people who feel they need to hold on to everything they’ve ever touched. This week we’ll be taking a look at a handful of dragons effected by Hoard-ing on the PSN.

Hoard Co-Op Review

Hoard is a variety of things we come to adore in arcade titles. It’s part dual stick shooter, part leveling RPG, part strategy, and even a dash of co-op that we so adore on the side. Even with all of those elements the gameplay is fairly straight forward and simple enough to learn for many players.

PSN users have been as fond of their Hoard as dragons are fond of their treasures. As a community friendly group of people, the developers have been listening to your problems and are prepared to make a few tweaks for our gaming benefit. They say they want to create the strongest experience possible, and when you've got dragons involved - that's saying a lot.

Do you like dragons? Do you like fantasy? Do you like co-op games that let you burn villages? Do you like gooooooooooooooooooold? You do? Well good - because out now in PSN is a game just for you called Hoard. We've been covering it for some time - it's a four player co-op action/strategy game where you control a dragon and try to amass a wealth of gold to sleep on at night in your Dragon Lair (patent pending).

We've been squatting on this video link, hoping for a release date. As yet, however, none has been given. Hoard is a simplistic twin-stick shooter with real-time strategy elements - it looks very appealing, and appears to have a bit more depth than originally anticipated. None of the screenshots we've posted so far have truly let the game shine, so we're embedding a video below that showcases one entire co-op match.

If you're going to PAX this year, you'll have a chance to stop by the Hoard booth, where you can experience four-player co-op firebreathing. Confirmed by developer Big Sandwich, co-op will be a separate mode, and can be played with four players in any combination of online or local.

This September, the PlayStation Network is getting a twin-stick arcade action game featuring dragons as the main playable characters. In what looks like a fun little game that will give you the freedom to cause destruction, angst, and mass hysteria in developer Big Sandwich's fictional medieval kingdom, Hoard can be played with up to three friends (four players total), either offline, online, or both.
