Best PS4 Co-Op Games
Below is a list of the best PS4 co-op games. These are our favourite cooperative PS4 games, as determined by our editorial team.
25. The Swords of Ditto (PS4)
You can of course play The Swords of Ditto alone, but it's clear this cartoonish adventure game is built for two. Playing in local co-op is the best way to experience this game, which is a mix of Zelda-esque action and rogue-lite elements. Tackling the randomised dungeons and thwarting the evil witch's plans is even more enjoyable with a friend in tow.
24. Team Sonic Racing (PS4)
Team Sonic Racing is a kart racer that's all about coop. You can team up with your pals either locally or online, and you must all work together to ensure victory. Trailing teammates can use a literal golden path to boost forward, and you can swap power-ups with each other to help everyone get ahead. It's unique, lots of fun, and a smart implementation of co-op in kart racing.

23. Knights and Bikes (PS4)
Knights and Bikes can be played solo, but is even better with a buddy in either local or online co-op. Taking on the roles of Nessa and Demelza as they explore the mysterious Penfurzy island, you'll get up to all sorts of mischief. Cooperation comes into play when you need to solve puzzles together, and in combat, your movesets play off of each other in lots of fun ways. An utter delight from start to finish.
22. LEGO DC Super-Villains (PS4)
Feel free to swap this out for your favourite LEGO game on PS4. Whichever LEGO adventure you play, a big part of what makes them special is co-op. A friend can hop in at any point and take control of a second character, and playing together doubles the fun. Beating up baddies, solving puzzles, and seeing who can collect the most studs in each level — these plastic platformers are built to be played in a twosome. We challenge you to not have a good time playing co-op in a LEGO game.
21. Don't Starve Together (PS4)
Don’t Starve Together takes the addictive gameplay loop from the original survival title and applies it to multiplayer. Playing locally or online, two players will be gathering resources, building equipment, and trying to stay out of harm’s way as you explore the wilderness. A second player can both help and hinder your chances, so communication is key to making progress in this fun, challenging co-op game.

Great list, thank you very much. scribbled some names down to play with either a buddy or my gf.
Another coop game someone recommended to me was Think of the Children. I've downloaded it but have yet to play it. It looks pretty funny though
Good list. So little decent couch co-op out there these days. Unfortunate.
I don't understand how Alienation, my absolute favorite couch co-op of all times does not make top-25. I know that it's all subjective, but no matter which other co-op games me and my friend try, we always find our way back to Alienation.
Killing Floor 2. Still strong playerbase as match making is just few seconds.
Close to Left 4 Dead you can get.
