Recommend me co-op games for the Switch!
- Thread starter SystemBug
- Start date
I recall this game having some sort of performance and/or loading issues at launch? Was that resolved?
Theres the obvious mario kart 8, there's hyrule warriors, minecraft (though it may be difficult if playing undocked split screen), rocket league, mario odyssey (sort of), fire emblem warriors, snipperclips,
Cave story has co-op? How did I not know this?
Idk if its been added on other ports, but i think it was a time exclusive feature for the Switch version.
just checked, you're right. co-optimus says it will be patched in some time this year though
Hyrule Warriors is fun in co-op from what I've heard. I've played Pokken and Mario Kart with coworkers on my break.
.. Then why did you comment?
Hyrule Warrior: Definitive Edition just came out for the switch if you didn't play it for the wii u or 3ds
Lover In A Dangerous Spacetime is a fun one that hasn't been mentioned but, in my experience, is best with 3 players.
Enter the Gungeon is great but single joycon co-op uses motion controls.
Neither of these are Switch exclusives, mind, if that is important to you.

Kirby: Star Allies isn't terribly challenging, but it's simple and satisfying co-op play. My bf (infrequent player) and I (hardcore gaymer) enjoy playing together. :)
Snipperclips is also great, bite-sized puzzle-solving and lots of fun!

Because I felt the urge to state a fact?
Death Squared is a great party puzzle game - try the demo to get the idea. Been playing it with my wife, and played with two other friends tonight. It's great!
Also, Astro Bears party is 99 cents right now, and is a stupidly fun game for what it is.

Super Chariot
and Sky Force Reloaded
U r welcom
I think i've miss Sky Force Reloaded. That looks fun.
I cant stop playing mine craft at the moment ( as a new player) im just obsessed, if you haven't tried it, get on it. but of course there is donkey Kong, Kirby and hyrule warriors etc. ENJOY :)
I have the physical version of Overcooked and I havent noticed issues. I highly recommend it for co-op
One game that hasnt been mentioned for co-op is Arms. I enjoy playing it online with a local partner. The match types are random but it is really fun when both are paired up on a team (maybe 1 ou of every 4 matches?)
I've had a ton of fun playing Puyo Puyo Tetris in co-op. The party mode stuff is great for short bursts of gameplay.
Good suggestions in the thread (Overcooked, Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, Putty Pals, Death Squared, etc).
Here are a few more that doesn't seem to have been mentioned yet:
* Sumer is really fun strategy board game that isn't turn-based (all moves are done at the same time by all players). It's not coop though, but versus. Simple to learn, hard to master. The shortest game mode is around 10 minutes.
* Tumblestone is a puzzle game in a similar style as Puyo Puyo Tetris, but it's more based on the puzzle aspect. It's also a versus game in multiplayer. VERY fun even between players of skill levels, with its use of skill settings and rubber banding. To unlock more puzzle abilities for the local multiplayer mode, you have to play single campaign. A first-to-5 multiplayer game will take around 5-10 minutes. It's frequently on sale on the eShop BTW.
* PixelJunk Monster 2 (just released) has a co-op mode. It's a tower control game.
* There are a few shmups that have 2-player co-op, such as Strikers 1945. Ikagura (releasing tomorrow) will also have co-op. The good thing with these shmups are that they have Tate mode, so they look really great on the small screen.
* FIFA 18 works very well on the small screen IMO.
* Picross S has a co-op mode where you can solve the puzzles together.
* Mario+Rabbids have both extra co-op and versus modes. Great fun. You need to play some single player to unlock it, though.
Stardew Valley's co-op isn't local co-op. When that patch arrives, you need multiple machines.
