The picks

Ranked by player rating, Metacritic breaks ties.

1
Portal 2
ShooterPuzzle
Its co-op campaign is a separate, purpose-built game — and it's still the gold standard.

Overcooked! 2
ActionCasualIndie
The other side of co-op: pure coordination, and it will test the relationship harder.
4.2/5Player ratingMC82View game
3
A Way Out
ActionAdventure
The same studio's first go at it: two players, one story, no single-player mode at all.

Unravel Two
ActionAdventurePuzzle
Gentle, gorgeous co-op puzzling where you're literally tied to each other.
4.0/5Player ratingMC79View game
5
Grounded

For when you want to keep playing together but with a world to build in, not a story to finish.
