There’s nothing quite like a good couch co-op game. While we don’t see nearly as many as we used to since before the advent of online everything, that doesn’t mean the genre is dead by a long shot. If anything, with It Takes Two taking home last year’s Game of the Year award, and a heap of recent titles and two-player updates coming to pre-existing games, we might be seeing a resurgence of the genre.
In our list of the best games like A Way Out on Switch and mobile, we’ve found a bunch of varied experiences that you can enjoy with a co-pilot. From puzzle-platformers to arcade mayhem, there’s a good mix to choose from and a lot of laughs to be had, so long as you can both keep your cool.
