It Takes Two, the highly anticipated co-op game developed by Hazelight Studios, is finally out. It’s already getting great reviews and is establishing itself as one of the best co-op games out there, which is no surprise considering it’s made by the same team as A Way Out, another popular and unique co-op experience.
It Takes Two requires multiplayer and has gamers play as Cody and May, an estranged couple considering divorce. When a magical spell transforms them into dolls, they must use their individual skills to navigate creative platforming levels to escape. Along the way, they attempt to mend their broken relationship. It Takes Two hardly ever uses the same mechanic twice, making it an unpredictable and exciting adventure for friends and couples to enjoy together. It’s a pretty unique co-op game, but there are a lot of other amazing cooperative experiences to dive into after completing it that are just as special.
Unravel 2 is the sequel to Coldwood Interactive’s highly acclaimed single-player platformer, Unravel. The premise is fairly simple: gamers play as one of two small dolls made of yarn who are connected to each other. The yarn can be used to lasso and swing from trees, build bridges, and drag objects from one place to another.
In Unravel 2, players can play alone and switch between the yarn dolls, but it’s much more enjoyable to play with a friend. Unravel 2 depends on the collaborative aspect, and most puzzles will require some teamwork. The levels are beautifully designed and the soundtrack is amazing, so players who want to dive into another whimsical platformer with their friends after completing It Takes Two should definitely take a look at Unravel 2. As an added bonus, it can usually be bought as a bundle with the first Unravel game.
Unravel 2 is available on PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox.
Overcooked 2 is a fast-paced co-op game developed by Team17 and Ghost Town Games. As the title implies, it is the sequel to Overcooked. Both are essentially the same game and have similar mechanics, but only Overcooked 2 has an option to play with friends online. In Overcooked 2, teams of up to four players must join together and save the Onion Kingdom by successfully running restaurants set in wild, imaginative kitchens. It also has a ton of DLCs, so there’s a lot of content to explore with this one.
The levels are completely unpredictable; sometimes players will be isolated to one side of the kitchen and have to pass ingredients back and forth, and in others the kitchen may be constantly shifting. Delegation is extremely important in Overcooked 2, and while it can technically be played with only one or two players, it’s much harder to get the scores required to get to the next level without the full four players. That said, Overcooked is commonly cited as one of those games that can ruin friendships, so proceed with caution.
Overcooked 2 is available on PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is a space shooter, but it’s not just any space shooter. One to four players play in a condensed spaceship to navigate through neon galactic environments to destroy the powers of Anti-Love. Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is often cited as a great game to play with a significant other on Valentine’s Day, but there’s not really any romance going on. Instead, the premise of the game is simply to eliminate Anti-Love, which everyone should be in favor of.
If players prefer to play on their own, they can and will partner with an adorable AI space pet to help them. But similar to Overcooked, it’s truly meant to be a cooperative gameplay experience. Each player has a job or protects a side of the spaceship, and having to do it all alone is much more difficult. Unfortunately, Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is not equipped with online features, but for gamers who have someone nearby to play with, this whimsical space shooter is a great game to play after finishing It Takes Two.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is available for PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox.
The fourth installment of the popular Trine series, Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince sends three heroes on a journey to save Prince Selius from his dark visions that are beginning to spill into reality. Trine 4 can be played in couch co-op, online, or a combination, so there are no obstacles preventing gamers from enjoying this magical platformer together.
Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince is available for PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox.
A Way Out is much more mature than It Takes Two or any of the other games on this list, so it’s probably not a game to be enjoyed by the family. With that said, a lot of adult fans who haven’t played A Way Out will probably turn to it after finishing It Takes Two. A Way Out is developed by Hazelight Studios and directed by Josef Fares, the same team that put It Takes Two together. Josef Fares also previously directed Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, another popular co-op game.
A Way Out is available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, and includes options for both couch co-op and online.
It Takes Two is available now on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, with specific PS5 and Xbox Series X editions.
