From forced self-isolation, gamers have largely benefited. Publishers give away titles for free, there is the opportunity to leisurely close the backlog, and the cool thing is that you can finally get together with friends and spend cooperative titles all day instead of boring work. We decided to recall the most interesting and fascinating of them.
A way out
Gameplay A Way Out
Ideal for playing together at home. For her, she doesn’t even need an Internet connection – the cooperative is here on a split screen, as in the good old ones. In the center of the plot are two prisoners – Vincent and Leo, who planned to escape from prison.
All gameplay consists of coordination of actions and separation of duties. For example, one hero must distract the police while the second tries to open the door lock. A Way Out generates many unusual situations and is filled with mini-games in which you can compete with your partner.

World war z
World War Z Gameplay
A cooperative zombie shooter was recently handed out for free in the Epic Games Store, and if you somehow missed it, we advise you to take a closer look at the game anyway. World War Z is very similar to Left 4 Dead, but it has a deeper gameplay.
The four survivors must work together to get out of the epidemic-ridden city, along the way helping the military and ordinary people not to die. The game offers four story campaigns, which take place in Moscow, Jerusalem, Tokyo and New York. The set of scenarios also varies. In the Big Apple, the heroes have to cooperate with the arrogant driver of the train and escape by metro, and in Moscow – to save the scientist who developed the virus against zombies.
World War Z Zombies
In each of the cities, players will have a choice of four characters with unique cues and voice acting. At the same time, each hero can choose a class on which the effectiveness of the character in certain situations depends. For example, a shooter reloads a weapon faster and can forget the damage to all his partners, and the demolitionist drops a box of explosive ammunition on the battlefield and blows up the locks on the doors of locked loot rooms. Each class is pumped after rounds, like weapons – for local currency, you can hang a sight or a silencer on your favorite machine gun.
Well, zombies. Here they climb literally from all the cracks and gather in huge crowds that can sweep away any poorly trained detachment. WWZ is best disclosed in situations where players have just a minute to create a defensive line using turrets and extensions, after which an adrenaline battle will follow with an army of the dead.

Remnant: From the Ashes
Gameplay Remnant: From the Ashes
This action from the creators of Darksiders is often called “Dark Souls with Guns,” and such a comparison is quite appropriate. It is suitable for a well-coordinated group of users who managed to play FromSoftware’s masterpiece and other similar titles.
The game has many types of weapons – from pistols and shotguns to rifles and machine guns. Each cannon can be pumped, this will improve its characteristics and open up new skills to the character.
The beauty of Remnant is that it does not end – after completing the storyline campaign and killing all the bosses, the game can be started anew and it will be completely different. All thanks to the built-in level generator, which changes the location of opponents, adds new ones to the already studied areas and even changes the order of mini-bosses. Because of this, the game will get tired very soon.

Overcooked! 2
Gameplay Overcooked! 2
Another game for a pair (and not only) the passage, but much more hardcore and unusual. The plot is simple: users find themselves in the restaurant’s kitchen and must quickly prepare food in order to fulfill orders. Each dish consists of several ingredients that need to be prepared in advance: boil rice, cut fish, fry meat, chop vegetables.
Sounds easy, huh? But what if the kitchen is divided into several sectors, between which a huge snake crawls, which prevents it from reaching the desired counter? Or suddenly the kitchen is completely located on a giant raft, which now and then is divided during the swim?
Well-coordinated work is very important!
The witticisms add a timer and the need to keep track of many things at once. Rice, for example, can simply catch fire if you do not remove it from the stove in time. If you miss the moment, you will have to urgently run after the fire extinguisher, which is also located at the other end of the kitchen. Yes, and each dish needs to be served in the correct sequence and be sure to find the right plate for it, otherwise serving it just will not work.
Thanks to the competent design of the cards and the many options for Overcooked dishes! 2 generates an incredible amount of acute situations, after which gamepads can fly to the floor. For this, they love her.

Borderlands 3
Gameplay Borderlands 3
Not a single selection of cooperative games can do without Borderlands 3. With the word “co-op” it is this series that first comes to mind. And for good reason – in Borderlands everything is done so that the player does not go through the campaign alone. And the third part in this regard is the coolest.
The game is very similar to Diablo. The user selects a character and pumps it, and also stably hangs new guns and shields on him. Each completed quest rewards with money, experience and some interesting rifle. Moreover, the weapon may fall such that in any other place you will not meet it anymore. All thanks to the built-in weapon generator, which collects each gun from separate modules. And such combinations are declared not millions, but billions.
Release Trailer Borderlands 3
The weapon will differ not only in appearance or sights, but also in the types of damage dealt and even in the alternative shooting mode. You don’t have to go far for examples – even a starting pistol fires not only bullets, but also missiles!
The characters are also successful. My personal favorite is the warrior Mose, who can summon giant fur directly from orbit. It can be surrounded by different guns, and the entire squad can climb onto it and move faster through the levels.
In general, Borderlands 3 is exactly the same as the previous parts, it just has more. An extensive arsenal of three active skills for each hero, several planets for research at once. For a group of friends who want to shoot, there is simply no better choice.
