Top rated dark co-op games
Shared fear makes these top rated dark co-op games work, because you face broken cities, cursed strongholds and hungry woods side by side instead of alone. Dying Light has you dashing over roofs and holding the night with friends, while ELDEN RING and DARK SOULS™ III ask you to time attacks and cover each other through punishing bosses. Expect gathering supplies, raising shelters and pulling teammates up when plans fall apart.
