Any recommendations for multiplayer games for two?
Discussion
Are you looking for two player co-operative games? PC or console? Most games I play are 3-4 player co-op games on PC with friends these days.
Payday 2 - 1-4 players doing a bank robbery, we played it loads but it got a bit samey. Stealth and/or shooting
Total War - can't remember which ones in the series are multiplayer, we play Warhammer 3
Borderlands - think they're all multiplayer and are great fun, 1 is getting a bit old but 2, TPS and 3 are still holding up

Helpful to know if console or PC. Console works well for two players playing together, I don't have a PC for gaming but they're not really set up for that in the same way.
I've been trying to find games to play with my older kids (12+13). We play on PS5 and I want split (or same) screen games. Co-op games work pretty well, had decent fun with them playing It Takes Two. Other games that we've played include (lots of) Fifa, The Ascent and Fortnite
Lots of co-op games require you to play on two different devices, which isn't what I wanted.

Playing through Split Fiction at the moment here with my daughter, can confirm it's amazing! Likewise It Takes Two.
There's another thread here somewhere about co-op games - I'm always on the hunt for new ones.
Rayman Legends is spectacular.
Untitled Goose Game has a fun co-op mode.
This. It Takes Two, Split Fiction, both brilliant couch co-op games.There's another thread here somewhere about co-op games - I'm always on the hunt for new ones.

Rayman Legends - so much fun.
There's A Way Out too, but I've not tried that yet as my son is only 12.
Baldurs Gate 3, fantasy RPG Turn Based game with an absolutely incredible story. In my opinion it's one of the best games of all time, being turn based you don't necessarily need to be "good" at games to play as you can take your time making decisions for both dialogue and combat. The in game world is huge, and full of events and choices which can affect the ultimate outcome of the story. I've sunk over 100 hours into the game, and i'm still not finished with the story, and i'm looking forward to a 2nd play through to make different choices and try different characters and abilities. I start playing split screen with my wife, and you can jump in and out of 2 player during the story so you don't both need to be present to play if one of you wants some solo play time

I keep thinking about buying this, and it sounds great from what you've described. Do you play on console or PC? I'd ideally play on MacBook but not sure how well it plays (M3 Pro 18GB)Buttery Ken said:
