Brings what grabs you about Narvas: playing together in co-op, good gunplay as well as jumping and platforming.

You run and gun through punishing stages in the spirit of the legendary 80s series, now with modern graphics and sound. Teaming up with a friend in Story Mode or with up to three others in Arcade Mode makes the explosive co-op combat especially fun.

Super Contra

Shooting and gunplay

Konami's arcade run-and-gun where you fight an alien invasion solo or with a friend. Alongside classic side-scrolling stages there are overhead levels, all with typical punishing arcade difficulty.

Gunstar Heroes

Pixel art

A frantic Mega Drive run-and-gun with mix-and-match weapons, explosive boss fights and wild set pieces. The chaos is even better in two-player co-op.

Broforce

Pixel art

A chaotic run-and-gun platformer starring parodies of action movie heroes, where nearly everything is destructible and explosions tear levels apart. With up to four friends in co-op, the mayhem becomes gloriously over-the-top fun.

Huntdown

Pixel art

A punchy 2D run-and-gun shooter with pixel art, a neon dystopian city and 80s action-movie flair. As a bounty hunter you take down gangs solo or in co-op, using cover, a wide range of guns and hard-hitting boss fights.

Metal Slug 6

Shooting and gunplay

A classic arcade run-and-gun with lovingly animated pixel art and chaotic, explosive levels. The new Weapon Stock system lets you carry and swap between two weapons, while the game stays punishing and tongue-in-cheek.

Chaos Domain

Pixel art

A run 'n' gun platformer in the spirit of 8- and 16-bit classics, built around fast, straightforward shooting. Weapons and special items can be upgraded, and two players can team up in local co-op.

Hive Jump

Sci-fi setting

A 2D run-and-gun platformer where you blast through procedurally built alien hives alone or in co-op, gather resources and take down the hive queen. Its Spelunky-like structure and squad flavor make for frantic, chaotic runs.

Unit 4

Playing together in co-op

A sci-fi platformer where up to four players team up as elite agents to tackle space missions and take on huge bosses. Minigames and trading add some variety.
