Friendship is difficult. Even the kindest of folks happen upon events or realizations that alter the way they look at each other, and that's to say nothing of those who are hell-bent on conquering the physical plane. Overlord: Fellowship of Evil, acknowledges that time spent with co-op partners can occasionally lead to frustration, which is why they're including ways to... alleviate that.
Have you ever wanted to play a dungeon crawler but didn't want to take fifty bajillion hours out of your life just to create a character? Indie developer Archebit knows the feeling. Dungeon League condenses all the fun and excitement of a dungeon crawler into short, bite-sized runs you and a friend can complete in just ten minutes. Who needs epic when you've got intense, right?
Who hasn't wanted to get all rock 'n' roll once in a while and throw a TV out of the window or smash up a guitar? There are cheaper ways of releasing your musical frustration and the character of Verse in Fable Legends may just be the person for you. She likes to hit enemies with her over sized lute.
For our third episode, Friday Awesomely Live Co-Op returns with one of the most beautiful games ever created, Trine 2. The Knight (Bobby), Wizard (Baldy), and Thief (Smurph) venture through Shadowed Halls and Hushing Grove (57:25), and pick up a handful of achievements along the way. Watch the video below! Here are the achievements...
After brewing in the Early Access pot for a few months, co-op isometric action RPG Victor Vran has finally made its official release debut! Class-less character progression, dynamic difficulty, 400 unique challenges, a slammin' 20 hour story campaign, and co-op that supports four online players, with two player local co-op coming soon.
From indie studio Tribute Games, Curses 'N Chaos is a tidy little pixel brawler that includes things like dinosaurs, alchemy, owls that deliver lamps, some curses, some chaos, and, most interestingly, cooperative combat gameplay!
The "toys to life" series of games that the original Skylanders kicked off all those years ago has always lacked one thing in the eyes of us co-op loving gamers: online play. That will change with Skylanders SuperChargers. Now you and your friends can play through the game's Adventure Mode together through the interwebs!
During Microsoft's press conference last week, it was revealed that Scalebound, one of the many titles PlatinumGames is developing, will feature a four player co-op mode. Unfortunately, no one gets to play as the dragon...
Look, it's tough to stand out in a crowd, and even tougher when you're just some average Joe or Jane. If that crowd is twenty-five of the universe's wackiest brawlers, well, you better be bringing something extra special to the table. That's why Gearbox's latest entry, Battleborn, is leaning harder than ever into their unique character archetypes. Being a robot is one thing, but being a robot who bends time and raises little baby robot owls? Now that's something you can put on a college application.
Look, guys. The long and short of the story is that Sword Coast Legends got bumped from its original PC release date of September 8th to the slightly further away September 29th. This is a super bummer for those of us who had already begun building shrines to the dice gods in preparation. As a wise man once said, though, "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." It may not mean as much in the era of Early Access and insta-patches, but if getting the game a few weeks late means that I get the fully enjoy the experience right away, I am 100% down.
At this point, there's a long, storied grudge between the Earth's vegetation and the shambling undead. For whatever reason, they just can't get along, though I seriously doubt that anyone's tried. Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 is simply the logical escalation of that grudge. Anyone with half a brain could deduce that a conflict between sentient flowers and rotting humanoids would eventually lead itself to the moon. That makes sense, right?
It seems only fitting for a LEGO game to finally be the one to break characters out of their respective properties and slap them in other worlds. After all, the first thing you do with a jumble of LEGO sets is throw Gandalf in an X-Wing and have him face off against Superman. Well, that's what I do, at least.
