Watch Out For These New Couch Co-Op Games from New Developers - PAX East

We traveled to PAX East to check out all the new games, and it was amazing to see so many couch co‑op games on the floor! These three new developers make their big debut with three really fun couch co‑op games that are fun for everyone. Make sure to wishlist them, as that goes a long way in supporting these indie developers! Sol Mates: A chaotic co‑op adventure where up to four players can dive into quick, action‑packed missions together, either locally or online. With procedurally generated challenges and narrative twists, teamwork is essential as you steer, shield, and blast through space hazards like pirates and black holes. As a united crew, you’ll make strategic choices under pressure—one wrong move could land you face‑to‑face with a giant alien crab! Royalty Free‑For‑All: An approachable party brawler that remixes characters, settings, and songs from the public domain. It celebrates a wide range of ages and skillsets by making the genre more accessible while maintaining an exciting pace and beloved mobility techniques. Light, strong, and special attacks make the zany flow of combat feel straightforward, even for first‑time players, so no one gives up after one match. Ra Ra Boom: Gear up for four‑player co‑op action with a modern twist. You’re sent to a future Earth overrun by rogue AI, battling waves of enemies and upgrading your ninja cheerleader’s skills as you beat ‘em up, shoot ‘em up, and smash through the chaos. Whether you’re cracking skulls with close combat or blasting bots from across the screen, Ra Ra BOOM has your back. Play it like a classic side‑scroller, treat it like a shooter, or mix it up for combos so smooth that even evil AI can’t keep up. 00:00 - Intro 00:27 - Sol Mates 01:57 - Royalty Free‑For‑All 03:49 - Ra Ra Boom
