Co-Op Multiplayer Campaign Recommendations

Post by DChaps »

I thought there was a thread on this subject at one point, but if it does exist I could not find it in my feeble attempts. I am looking for recommendations for any good Co-Op Campaign games on Xbox One or possibly even 360. Does not have to be couch-local as I have two Xbox One and two 360's. I have reviewed some recent lists (see below) so I have some ideas, but I am looking for personal DSP experience, i.e. you've done it at some level and enjoyed it. I saw both A Way Out and it Takes Two mentioned in some other threads while I was searching, so it sounds like those are good DSP recommended starting points. The audience is college aged kids and "young" AARP adults, so pretty much open to anything as long as its not too complicated to get into. Thanks!

The Division 2 and Ghost Recon: Wildlands are both excellent in co-op if your group likes military-themed looter-shooters or first-person shooters.

The Frontier Defense co-op mode in Titanfall 2 is AMAZING. I'm not even into mech games at all, but that game and its predecessor ROCK.

Badlands 3 is a fun fantasy loot shooter that is very fun in coop. Pete and I have cooped that game. I highly recommend it. Like PK said, The Division/The Division 2. is superb as are the Ghost Recon games. The latest Ghost Recon game (Breakpoint) didn’t receive great reviews…as it was rushed to launch…but Ubisoft has revamped/reinvented it and recently released the Operation Warlord add on. It’s a solid FPS/TPS that can be played at any difficulty. Hardcore is hardcore. Halo Infinite has a superb campaign but the coop isn’t available until May. If you like the Zombie genre then Back for Blood is decent. It’s a Game Pass game so its “free”.

Thanks for the tips all! I think we are going to start with the Division 2 and Titanfall 2. Have never played any of the Borderlands series. If just starting out, what would be the best one?

Titanfall 2 does not have co-op campaign. It does have 4 player "horde" mode where you take on waves of enemies. So, if you want something you can just jump in and play that works. As far as Horde modes go the earlier Gears of War games are still my favorite.

Division 2 has a very long campaign you can play through. Like most games you have to progress through a mission or 2 before you can start playing coop.
