If you’re looking for games to play with other people, there’s plenty of them this year. And today, we are going to see the top 10 new multiplayer game of 2021. All this content is based on my personal experience and expertise ideas and spoil articles.
“World War Z: Aftermath” Will coming out this year as a Multiplayer game

It is an upgraded version of “World War Z” that includes the entire game of the Year edition as well as three new locations, Rome, Vatican City, and the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia.
If you’re not aware, the base game is along the lines of “Left 4 Dead,” but it’s set in the universe that was established in the “World War Z” movie.
It also focuses on big wide-open environments and the types of encounters you might have there, which is slightly different from what you see in “Left 4 Dead,” and ultimately, a pretty good game.Â
I wouldn’t necessarily call it the best, but getting the best version of it, the game of the Year version with all of the extra content there, with more content on top of that.Â
Honestly, part of my complaint with the original game was that it maybe wasn’t long enough. In this version, you get enough to do for the money.Â
“World War Z: Aftermath” is available for pre-order.

“Aliens: Fireteam Elite” for level based multiplayer game
It actually functions as a standalone sequel to the “Alien” trilogy of movies, set 23 years after the original film. This game looks very much like it takes a lot of inspiration from both “Left 4 Dead” and “Gears of War.”

It’s a very different type of game than “Alien: Isolation,” but it does look like it has managed to use the same aesthetic sensibilities to capture what the film looked like.Â
Essentially, you are a colonial Marine. You’re responding to a distress call. It’s not the most original or intriguing story that you’re ever going to hear, but everything we’ve seen about this makes it look like it’s actually going to be a good game.Â
To be frank, these types of level-based co-op shooters, whether they’re leaning closer to “Left 4 Dead” or “Gears of War,” the story isn’t the most important thing.Â
The fact that they’ve set it in the “Alien” world gives a lot of good world-building possibilities. But if they nail the gameplay, it’s a great universe to set one of these games in.Â
“Aliens: Fireteam Elite” comes to the PlayStations, the Xboxes, and Microsoft Windows on August 24.

“The Ascent” Might be the best Multiplayer game in 2021
It is somewhere between a “Diablo” action RPG and a twin-stick shooter along the lines of “Enter the Gungeon,” that kind of thing.
Essentially, the way that the game takes place is you start at the lowest area of archeology, a “Cyberpunk” city, and you gradually move your way up.

Essentially, the story is that a mega-corporation called The Ascent Group is apparently collapsing, and you’re doing whatever you can to take advantage of the situation.
Things are not as they seem. This game’s actually gotten a fair amount of play around the office here.
It has some major quirks, but it’s a game that a lot of love went into, has beautiful environments. And although there is some jank that could be fixed over time through patching and a little bit of work by the developers.Â
It’s also a game that really puts forward a fun version of what it’s trying to do. I mean, a twin-stick action RPG that doesn’t feel like it goes too far in either of those directions while maintaining a lot of the fun stuff from both, we enjoyed it a lot.
It came out on July 29 for Microsoft Windows and the Xboxes. And again, there are some quirks, so it’s not like a straight recommendation, but I would recommend giving it a shot.
It’s one of those games where if you can get past some of the things, it’s genuinely one of the best multiplayer games of the year.

“Samurai Warriors 5” is multiplayer or not?
It is kind of a reboot for the “Warrior” series. Obviously, “Samurai Warriors” isn’t “Dynasty Warriors,” but at the same time, it’s kind of the newest mainline version of the game.

And we were all delighted to find out that they were going back on a lot of the decisions made for “Samurai Warriors 9,” which kind of made it into a lousy open-world, single-player MMO RPG-like experience, where the battles were still good.
But they were also not what you were doing all the time, or even most of the time. “Samurai Warriors 5” goes back to the excellent formula here.
The game simplifies and streamlines some concepts and adds a new hyper attack, which gives you the ability to traverse a lot of lands while attacking enemies.
In terms of the multiplayer game, they don’t have couch multiplayer. You got to play it online, but it’s certainly worth the time.
It is a much better game than “Dynasty Warriors 9.” While it certainly doesn’t carry the same kind of extensive roster as previous titles, the gameplay is probably some of the best they’ve offered in the entire “Warrior” series.
And it’s clear that they listened to the feedback from “Dynasty Warriors 9.”Â

“Valheim” Can play up to 10 players at a single time.
A procedurally generated exploration and survival game that you can play with up to 10 other players.
This beautiful game gives you all of the exciting survival options, from crafting to the building.

And in truth, at the stage it’s at right now, which is early access, it is a robust offering at only $20.
This is a game I’ve seen lots of groups of people say is great to play like with a group of friends, or as a family, because you get to build a base, ultimately a village. And the way that everything plays out is quite good.
It, again, is up to 10 players. So, if you’ve got a circle of friends interested in it, it’s not an expensive game.Â
As long as you’re all connected to the internet, you can all play together pretty quickly. It’s also drop-in, drop-out. As for me, it’s probably one of the better survival offerings of the year.
It works out in a perfect way. Again, it’s out in early access for PC right now.

“Monster Hunter Rise” for best online co-op game
It is the Nintendo Switch version of “Monster Hunter,” more or less. It builds on the various mechanics established in “Monster Hunter: World,” but as the name implies, it makes it a little more vertical in terms of playstyle.

You can form a hunting party with up to four players. It’s not a couch multiplayer game, but you can all play it on wireless LAN or just over straight online.
If you have a few people with a few Nintendo Switches, it’s really a fantastic take on “Monster Hunter.”
It gives you a friendly, big world to explore, but as I said, it’s designed with a bit of bit more verticality in mind. For the verticality to be more than just level design, they’ve also added the Wire Bug, which is kind of like the Clutch Claw they said in “Monster Hunter World: Iceborn.”
It’s basically a grappling hook. And again, the way they’ve designed the world here, it works really well. And it’s a lot of fun to have four people exploring and hunting monsters.
The game’s been out since March on the Nintendo Switch. It’s very much worth the time and money.

“Far Cry 6” from Ubisoft
It is the latest in one of Ubisoft’s largest franchises for multiplayer games. “Far Cry 6” is set on a fictional Caribbean Island called Yara, where you will participate in guerrilla tactics against the dictator Anton Castillo.
Ultimately the idea of the game is to topple the regime, and it’s undoubtedly not Western propaganda against Cuba or anything like that.

It does contain one of the most high-profile actors from “Breaking Bad.” The gentleman who plays Gus Fring is the dictator.
And in interviews with him, he’s taking an exciting approach to it. They’re not portraying him as just an evil dictator, but as somebody who actually does care about his country.
Honestly, it looks like a perfect take on “Far Cry.” You’re going to be seeing makeshift weapons, vehicles.
You’re going to be hiring various people to take part in your guerrilla action. There are animal companions with a new system called Fangs for Hire.
“Far Cry 6” is coming to Windows, the PlayStations, the Xboxes, Amazon Luna, and Google Stadia.

“Back 4 Blood” Will be a new era for the gaming industry
It is finally essentially a new “Left 4 Dead” game. It comes to us from the developers. Obviously, Valve owns “Left 4 Dead.”

They’ve independently decided, you know what? We need to make another multiplayer game like this, which is great because those are obviously the games that really popularized the co-op genre that they exist in.
It’s pretty exciting to see them actually just making a full-on new title. Even though it’s not officially “Left 4 Dead,” It is the next “Left 4 Dead” game.
They announced it back in 2019. Everybody’s just been waiting for it. And although it’s not “Left 4 Dead 3,” I don’t think I consider it something different.
It’s going to be great. It’s going to be a nice, much better-looking version of the same gameplay we’ve loved for years and years.
I can’t personally wait for it. That’s landing on the PlayStations, the Xboxes, and Microsoft Windows.Â

“It Takes Two” only for two players
It’s an action-adventure platforming game that requires co-op. It is a two-player game and not a one-player game.
You have to play this cooperative multiplayer because the gameplay mechanics require two people.

You could play it through either online play or locally with another person, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find somebody to play with.
But it’s exciting. It is the story of a married couple planning on getting a divorce, and through magic, they get trapped in a couple of dolls that are made to resemble them and have to work together to find a way back to their previous life.
If that sounds similar, but also highly different from “A Way Out,” it’s from the director of that game and is a fascinating story to be told that incorporates all the mechanics into the story very, very well.
This is a game that’s been out for a few months. It is worth your time. It’s out on the PlayStations, the Xboxes, and Microsoft Windows.

“Dying Light 2: Stay Human” will come end of this year as Co op game
It is the sequel to the original “Dying Light.” It retains the emphasis on parkour, in fact, enhances it, giving you tons more animations and intending to make it a lot more fluid.

There’s also a grappling hook and a paraglider, and more importantly, it will feature four players cooperative multiplayer.
Now, honestly, this is the type of game that does work well in that way. It is a more exploration-oriented title, and the narrative is supposedly going to be branching excitingly.
This is one that’s been a long time coming, so the hope is that they deliver on the promise of a quote-unquote narrative sandbox.Â
I think that is going to be a fascinating experiment at the very least. I hope that it’s even better than the first game.Â
