5 Multiplayer Games to Enjoy With Your Xbox
Video games are seen by many as a form of escape from their hectic daily life. After a hard day’s work, it is always great to sit back and enter into a virtual world and smash some opponents. The great part is that you get to do it with your friends!
So here are some of the best games you can play with or against your friends on the Xbox!
1. Rocket League
Developers: Psyonix, Panic Button Games
Genre: Sports
Enjoy games like FIFA and Need for Speed? Here’s a combination of both genres! Rocket League is essentially futsal with a touch of cars.
Gameplay is very fast-paced and you would get to compete with other teams with your friends! And since we’re all partially stuck indoors at the moment, football fans can really give this game a go!
Furthermore, players are able to customise their cars which can make for a great topic of discussion.
2. Overwatch
Developers: Blizzard Entertainment, Iron Galaxy
Genre: Shooting
Despite Overwatch’s esports scene being less prominent than before, the game itself is still very enjoyable and a great game to spend your weekends with your friends.
The characters are comparable to many modern designs and the mechanics aren’t too difficult to grasp.
Hence, if you enjoy gun-fighting games with anime-like characters, Overwatch is the game for you and your friends.
3. A Way Out
Developers: Hazelight Studios
Genre: Action, Adventure
If competitive games are not to your liking, A Way Out is a story-driven co-op game that requires only teamwork and a bit of brainstorming.
The game premise is both players will play as either Leo or Vincent, both prisoners looking for an escape.
As this is a co-op exclusive game, we highly recommend players to have voice call apps like Discord to get their message across smoothly.
4. Monster Hunter: World
Developers: Capcom
Genre: Action RPG
RPG games are generally well-received by the gaming community. The classics like Kingdom Hearts and Fire Emblem are widely acclaimed with well-deserved credits.
However, most of these games lack a multiplayer function, at least not as developed as games like Brawlhalla or Hunt: Showdown.
Fortunately, Monster Hunter: World has made its game open-world and heavily encourages multiplayer play for its game.
Going on raids and battles together with your friends is extremely rewarding and is also very reminiscent of the good WoW times.
5. Overcooked 2
Developers: Team17, Ghost Town Games
Genre: Cooking
If you’re new to the gaming community, or if you have friends that are trying out video games for the first time, hardcore games like Fortnite may not be up your alley.
Overcooked 2 is an extremely casual couch game that is aimed at all ages. The game requires players to work together in completing a set of orders in a creatively themed kitchen.
While this might seem to be a trivial task, we assure you that things can get really messy really quick with players bumping into each other!
