Great Games for You to Play with Your Friends This Weekend 

What better way to spend your weekend than free-running your way through the zombie apocalypse with your buddies? Dying Light 2: Stay Human lets you and three friends parkour about Villedor together online. Once one of you takes up hosting duties, you can run around the city as you see fit or join up to tackle quests. 

While only the host player can proceed with quests, it’s still worth the time for the rest of the team. All the loot drops and contents of searchable containers will be localised for each of you. That means everyone gets their own XP, crafting materials, consumables, and gear without any fighting amongst yourselves.

Cowabunga dudes! It’s time for you and your friends to become heroes in a half-shell for this modern take on an arcade classic. TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge has all the style of the 1980s cartoon and gameplay of the legendary Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time. Like its predecessor, Shredder’s Revenge is a side-scrolling beat ‘em up game you can play with your friends. Only you won’t need to be sharing a sofa to do so! 

Four players can still team up locally, but if you go online then six of you can get in on the action. That lets you take advantage of the full roster of playable characters. Each has different attributes, super moves, and taunts they can use as well as combo moves to pull off. Show those Foot Ninjas some turtle power! 

We were lucky enough to get our hands on a review copy of the latest TMNT Arcade game, Wrath of the Mutants. Read up on what we thought!

Playing sports with your friends sounds like a great way to spend your weekend. But what if you don’t have an athletic bone between you? Then Roller Champions it is! This 3v3 multiplayer title from Ubisoft will satisfy your need for high-octane competition without you needing to leave the house. What’s even better – it’s free-to-play and supports crossplay! 

The aim of the game in Roller Champions is to score five points in the seven-minute time limit. To do this, you’ve got to get possession of the ball, skate a lap of the rink uninterrupted, and then throw the ball into the goal. You can earn more points by completing more laps but will have to pass and dodge to avoid tackles from opponents to do so. It’s a frantic combination of roller-skating, basketball, and ice hockey that creates the kind of chaotic fun that’s best enjoyed with friends.
