Hello all! My buddy and I finally finished up Baldur's Gate 3 this week and we are not left with a giant co-op game shaped whole in our hearts. It was such an incredible experience and it was truly even more fun running through it together. We are excited to hop into another game, but we have no idea what to play. We've played a lot, and some games we've finished or tried recently included:

Borderlands 1, 2, and 3
Minecraft, Terraria, Vintage Story
Raft, 7 Days to Die
A Way Out, It Takes Two

I'm posting here today to ask if any of you have some suggestions for co-op games we could check out! I've Googled for suggestions to no end and 90% of what's there is games we've already played. If anyone has any recommendations for us they would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks for all the great suggestions everyone!! I'm going to compile a list and check them all out one by one!

Most of these have been mentioned before, but I'll mention them again.

Halo Master Chief Collection. Everything before 5 is local split screen. 5 requires two Xboxs. I would just avoid Infinite, but I believe it also requires two systems, maybe including PC.

Diablo 3 is very accessible. 4 should be as well. I'm told Diablo 2 is the best, so I need to try to get back into it. All should be good options.

Monster Hunter requires more patience. At least for World, cooperation is good but really the game is geared towards individuals being able to take charge as necessary. Track, set traps, bait, capture, etc. Multiplayer is VERY useful during fights though.

Stranger of Paradise is kinda Souls-like but more forgiving. In my experience it's A LOT more friendly to Multiplayer. It's also a ton of fun with a friend.

Psi-Ops: Mindgate Conspiracy. An old PS2 game. One person controls the body, the other controls the mind. Especially if you have a Gameshark and you can go Godmode.

Any of the old Street sports games were a blast back in the day.

Older Twisted Metal for another old-school recommendation.
