30. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection (PS4)

If you're after some co-op FPS action, the Borderlands games offer some top notch shooting and looting. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection is a great deal, giving you access to Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, along with all the accompanying DLC. With a ludicrous number of possible weapons, some great sci-fi environments to explore, and some daft storytelling to pull you along, this series is a highly entertaining way to get your co-op FPS kicks.

29. Overcooked (PS4)

Despite later versions improving upon the formula, the original Overcooked is still a wonderful multiplayer game. It kicked off a trend of simple, accessible co-op games, and it's not hard to understand why. This cooking game may look friendly and straightforward, but if you and your friends aren't careful, chaos can quickly take over the kitchen. Communication is key in this fantastic co-op game, and if you want a bit of spice, there are some competitive multiplayer levels too.

28. Resident Evil: Revelations 2 (PS4)

Originally released episodically as a direct sequel to Nintendo 3DS game Resident Evil: Revelations, it’s probably fair to say that Resident Evil: Revelations 2 has largely been forgotten. But the game, starring Claire Redfield and Barry Burton’s daughter Moira has some high-points, including full co-op support. When playing solo, you’ll need to toggle between different characters to solve puzzles. There’s also a Raid Mode which features a bunch of combat gauntlets, all of which can be enjoyed with a friend locally and online.

27. Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time (PS4)

Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time gets the marsupial back on track. This is a stylish, highly polished 3D platformer that harkens back to the gameplay of the original games while feeling fresh and modernising the controls. Throw in a lovely art style, multiple playable characters, and oodles of optional side content, and you have a super robust game that players of all ages and skill levels can enjoy.

26. A Way Out (PS4)

A Way Out can only be played in two-player co-op, and because it's designed around that restraint, it's an excellent multiplayer adventure. Playing as a pair of convicts, the game takes you and a buddy on a wild ride as they escape from prison and look to get revenge for those that did them dirty. With an interesting story and lots of co-op focused gameplay, this is a great game to play with a pal.

25. Gran Turismo Sport (PS4)

Sony's flagship racing series has had its ups and downs, but Gran Turismo Sport was an especially unusual step in the history of the franchise. Primarily focusing on online multiplayer and esports, the game featured the same gorgeous visuals and impressive handling you'd expect, but without most of the content that fans love. Again, the game itself looks and plays great, and its online racing is rather innovative, encouraging good sportsmanship above all. There's still a lot to like about Sport, but the meatier Gran Turismo 7 is arguably the stronger entry overall.

24. Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition (PS4)

While Street Fighter V was much maligned at launch because of its lack of content, the Arcade Edition represents a far more complete fighting game. Not only does it have the brilliant core fighting and multiplayer that fans know and love, it also includes a good amount of single player stuff on top. It's tough for Street Fighter V to shake its poor reputation, but the truth is that, with a hefty load of updates, it's in a much, much better state in this version.

23. Tekken 7 (PS4)

Though showing its age a little these days, Tekken 7 remains a great fighting game. Its super-crunchy combat is arguably better than ever here, with its overhauled rage system giving even novice players a fighting chance. There's an OTT story to follow and a solid suite of modes to enjoy, including local and online multiplayer of course. An all-round excellent fighter.

22. Gran Turismo 7 (PS4)

Gran Turismo 7 is the more complete package that fans have been wanting since the previous game's focus on esports. While it does feature excellent online multiplayer, the main draw is the huge, "Car-PG" single-player offering. Hundreds of cars are yours to collect and tune up, and the wonderful handling makes each one a pleasure to drive. The GT Café makes all the events, licence tests, and other activities easier to digest, and it's hard to not be won over by the sheer volume of information packed in about car culture and history. A return to form for the series.

21. SoulCalibur VI (PS4)

SoulCalibur as a series has always struggled to recapture the magic of the now legendary SoulCalibur II, but SoulCalibur VI comes close. A return to form in many ways, this weapon-based brawler refreshes its cast of eccentric characters, while also throwing Geralt of The Witcher fame into the mix. Loads of game modes and a range of flashy combat adjustments make this instalment a robust fighting game package, and it all looks lovely in motion.
