Dungeon Defenders II

Playing together in co-op

A cooperative tower defense game with action RPG elements: up to four players place defenses, fight alongside them and chase loot to keep upgrading their heroes.

Orcs Must Die! 3

Tactical depth

Tower defense meets third-person action: you place traps, cast spells and hack through huge orc hordes yourself, solo or in co-op. New war machines and massive War Scenarios deliver chaotic, humorous fun.

Orcs Must Die! 2

Tactical depth

A gleeful blend of third-person action and tower defense where you shred orc hordes with traps, weapons and spells, ideally alongside a friend in co-op. A deep upgrade system and cheeky humor keep the carnage fresh.

Fire Emblem Warriors

Action-packed real-time combat

A Dynasty Warriors spinoff where you play as Fire Emblem heroes, cutting through huge armies on large battlefields while issuing orders to allies. The weapon triangle and a big roster of playable characters deliver plenty of fan service and variety.

Deathtrap

Tactical depth

Deathtrap blends tower defense with action RPG: you fight directly while placing traps to hold off monster hordes at gothic strongholds. It is set in the Van Helsing universe.

Warcraft Rumble

Tactical depth

A real-time strategy game set in the Warcraft universe where you deploy collectible miniatures in compact battles across a campaign, co-op and PvP.

Patapon 3

Playing together in co-op

A rhythm-action game where you command an army of tiny Patapons by drumming commands in time. The third entry puts more emphasis on hero progression, gear and multiplayer missions, in its distinctive silhouette art style.

Monster Hunter

Playing together in co-op

The original game of the series: you hunt huge monsters in large areas, learn their attack patterns and craft better weapons and armor from their parts. The heavy, deliberate combat loop shines most when played online with friends.
