The fact that you can “accidentally” kill your partner just adds to the tension.

Best Xbox One Couch Co-Op & Local Multiplayer Games (34)

Resident Evil 5 & 6

There are a few Resident Evil games that let you team up with a friend locally to face the infected masses, such as RE5 and RE6.

Best Xbox One Couch Co-Op & Local Multiplayer Games (35)

Kalimba

Kalimba is not for the faint of heart. It’s a tough puzzle platformer that has you simultaneously controlling two totems as you navigate tricky stages. One slip up, and you’re done. Throw in another player and it becomes even more challenging, which happens to be part of its charm.

Battletoads released in 2020, remaking the classic beat ’em up title that had players raging withthat motorbike level. You and up to three friends can take on the campaign of this iconic classic in couch co-op, and the good news is that motorbike level isn’t quite as rage-inducing as it once was.

With multiple endings, a Curator’s Cut mode that gives you a glimpse at other ‘scenes’ in the story, and a mode where each person you’re with controls a separate character in the group, there’s plenty of fun to be had in couch co-op with this one.

And once you’ve wrapped up Man of Medan, the next entry, Little Hope ups the ante even more with the same enjoyable gameplay and couch co-op mode, but with a far more enjoyable story (in our opinion).

Divinity: Original Sin 1 & 2

Isometric RPGs are always great for couch multiplayer because they allow a clear view of the action for all players. Divinity: Original Sin takes things a step further with its dynamic hybrid camera that splits up when you and your partner want to go to different areas. Of course, we wouldn’t recommend it solely for the camera. The gameplay is full of healthy challenges, tons of customization, and a true RPG experience for you and your friends.

Best Xbox One Couch Co-Op & Local Multiplayer Games (52)

Borderlands: The Handsome Collection & Borderlands 3

Borderlands is a first-person shooter RPG that’s full of endless enemies, gigantic bosses, and tons of loot.

While it’s plenty of fun on its own, bringing along a friend for some crazy adventures that include shooting psychos and other dangerous denizens is a real treat. Borderlands 3 is always another option, but keep in mind that the split-screen performance in the game isn’t great right now.

Best Xbox One Couch Co-Op & Local Multiplayer Games (55)

Trials Rising

Trials Rising is the latest entry in Ubisoft’s popular biking series, and it features a cool mode where two players have to work together to balance on a single bike, and move forward at the same time. Like Octodad, except with bikes. We think.

You can play couch co-op in either the online Rivals mode, against the AI, or with one of your Ultimate Team’s. Who’ll get the wins and coins on their FUT account will be down to the pair of you.

Best Xbox One Couch Co-Op & Local Multiplayer Games (60)

Blizzard’s Diablo III is one of the most fun, isometric, action RPGs out there. The best part? It has online and couch co-op.

If you haven’t played Rocket League, you definitely need to rectify that. Once you get a hang of the responsive controls and the sick, flipping, rocket powered vehicles, it’s time to dive into some couch co-op multiplayer to take on the world with a buddy.

The sequel offers up more recipes to make, dynamic stages that change up as you’re cooking, and the ability to throw items to your fellow chefs. Plus, it’s got online Xbox One multiplayer, so the fun doesn’t have to end when your friends leave.
