There's no better way to enjoy your PS5 than with friends, so here's our picks of the best co-op games on the console.

SQUARE ENIX® today announced that OUTRIDERS™ will be available to play for free on Steam from Monday June 20th to Thursday June 23rd.
I played through the entire campaign. It was very generic. The story was mediocre and the technical issues on PC were pretty bad. They patched it up quite a bit. It plays better now. I can say the only reason why I enjoyed it was because I missed Division 2-type gameplay but was was tired of running around the same areas in New York. The endgame is just an enemy hitpoint multiplier where a tiny creature has 20,000 HP. It's too bullet-spongy.
Starting to think that this really is the current gen Mass Effect we never got. Definitely interested now, might just pick this up.
I'm not judging the game, I don't know enough to comment on it's quality or "fun'ness" .
But that said any time people try to say a game is "like" some other popular game I get nervous.
I'm sure Outriders will be the Dark Souls of Mass Effect and FTL and Resident Evil and Final Fantasy....
But I'm going to stay optimistic, I'm always interested in new IP's.
Defo one to watch for next gen systems. Those broadcasts got me interested.
Yeah, this is starting to look really good.
