Top Multiplayer Games

30 best co-op games to play right now. By Sam Loveridge, Samuel Horti 02 February 2021. From online to the comfort of your sofa, these are the best co-op games to play with friends. Multiplayer RPGs are great when working together is conducive. Diablo III is a prime example of a game that blends well with multiplayer. Although Diablo II had a most substantial social component. Overwatch is another popular first-person shooter multiplayer game that is full of colourful characters and futuristic environments. This team-based game is a perfect blend of MOBAs and shooters. Overwatch boasts more than 40 million players across PC and consoles. Every character in the game has a different story and skills. But we are not talking about co-op or games that simply wedge in a multiplayer mode. These 5 games solely focus on the game as a multiplayer experience. The game centers around you playing with or against (or both) many other people. These games top our charts as the most popular multiplayer games in 2020 and will mostly do it in 2021 too.

Sony’s PlayStation 2 has a massive library of great games. Including some of those unique and experimental ones that were so common in the sixth generation of consoles.

Among them you can find some memorable couch-locked multiplayer experiences of the decade.

Sure, we have some pretty amazing online multiplayer experiences nowadays.

Huge 100-player battle arenas bringing in people from all corners of the world, all fighting to achieve the epic Victory Royale… and yet at times, it can feel as if you’re just shooting at a bunch of bots.

Nothing beats having your friends in the same room, DualShocks in hand, duking it out on a fighter or trying to out-play each-other while practicing the subtle form of subterfuge that it peeking at your opponent’s screen.

So why don’t we go back?

Go plug your dusty PS2 into your miraculously functional CRT TV and join me as we go through the most amazing multiplayer games on the console.

Fighters, shooters, puzzles… there’s something here for everyone, and their friends.

30. Culdcept

December 4, 2003 Omiya soft

I like bringing obscure high-quality games to the forefront when given the chance, so let’s start the list with Monopoly and Hearthstone’s secret love child – Culdcept.

On the surface, this 4-player board game seems pretty simple.

Your goal is to make your way across the board capturing territory and defending it with magical beasts you acquire in the form of cards. And others will follow suit on their turns, trying to undo your hard work until only one is victorious.

It’s perfect for those who find stuff like Mario Party a tad childish or “too easy”.

Not only does the game have surprising complexity, but it’ll take the same commitment and time to finish that you’d expect from a round of Risk.

Game night!

29. Adventures of Cookie & Cream

December 7, 2000 From Software

On the surface this may look like a weird entry, but one mustn’t be scared of new experiences.

This quirky Co-Op platformer stars two colorful bunnies, Cookie and Cream, as they make their way through several treacherous levels that’ll require some quick thinking on your part to clear.

The graphics are meh, and that bizarre art direction seems focused solely on marketing to children.

But its gameplay remains engaging to the very end.

This comes as no surprise considering it was developed by From Software, the studio behind Dark Souls.

Even if you’re not entirely convinced, it warrants a playthrough. And it shouldn’t take you more than an afternoon to clear.

28. Galactic Wrestling: Featuring Ultimate Muscle

April 22, 2004 Syn Sophia, Bandai

There are many wrestling games available on the PS2.

But none of them have the personality and bizarre humor of Galactic Wrestling: Featuring Ultimate Muscle.

And it’s easy to see why!

The source material isn’t only hilarious, but engaging and full of unique characters that(in their weirdness) still manage to resonate with the audience.

This translates pretty well to the game – plus it’s very nice to pull off each character’s incredibly badass super-moves.

You could also play this on the GameCube, but Bandai put considerably more characters into the PS2 version so this one is a win for Sony.

27. Alien Hominid

November 21, 2004 Tuna Technologies, Tuna Interactive

I’ve always thought that Co-Op games benefit from simplicity.

Which is why Alien Hominid is so fun to play with a friend.

The game plays a lot like the classic Metal Slug, which almost guarantees it to be good.

Except the graphics look like they belong on a flash game… because this was a Newgrounds game before it got picked up for console releases.

Because of this, it’s understandable that it doesn’t have the most sophisticated gameplay.

Still, that doesn’t take away from the fun at all. Plus it’s so short you won’t even get a chance to grow tired of it.

26. Buzz! The Mega Quiz

October 30, 2007 Relentless Software

If you’re having more than a couple of friends over for drinks and all you have at your disposal for entertainment is a PS2, you probably can’t do better than Buzz! The Mega Quiz.

This trivia game starts out friendly-enough, and you can succeed with simple miscellaneous knowledge – but as the game progresses, you’ll notice that wanting to win is a skill in and of itself… and the less-studied among the group will find a way to balance things out.

My advice?

Come up with some rules to turn this into a drinking game. So you’ll all catch a buzz by playing Buzz!

25. Half-Life

November 14, 2001 Gearbox Software, Valve Software

Valve’s iconic FPS won’t ever get a third installment, but it did get a port to the PS2 thanks to developer Gearbox.

The game is generally known for its fantastic single-player and memorable story following Gordon Freeman, but it’s far from the only thing it has to offer.

Not only are the head-to-head competitive multiplayer modes great, but it features the fantastic Decay mode which puts you and a friend on a Co-Op campaign starring two female researchers from Black Mesa, parallel to the main story.

Worth a try if you’ve never touched the game before.

24. Dokapon Kingdom

November 22, 2007 Sting Entertainment

Dokapon Kingdom can be understood as “RPG Mario Party”, but that would be understating the danger this game poses to your interpersonal relationships.

You see, the game’s objective is to be the richest player by the end of the game.

To achieve this you’ll choose one of three classes, find equipment, clear dungeons, and most importantly you’ll completely undermine everyone else by casting debuffs and other impediments on them.

It’s not called “The Friendship Destroyer” for nothing.

Mario Party is small fry in comparison.

To balance things out, this board-RPG features beautiful graphics and cutesy characters to somewhat veil the backstabbing nature of the game.

23. Marvel vs. Capcom 2

February 24, 2000 Capcom, Backbone Entertainment

Watching Marvel heroes duking it out against characters from many Capcom franchises never gets old, and it’s just as good on the PS2 as it is on current consoles.

It brings together the heroes of Western culture and those of Eastern origin through a common love of over-the-top combos and special attacks.

It’s a match made in heaven!

While criminally unrealistic considering these characters are in completely different power-level tiers, this game is acceptably balanced for a competitive experience.

And its pace and combo-system are easier to get into than something like Guilty Gear.

22. Blood Will Tell: Tezuka Osamu’s Dororo

September 9, 2004 Red Entertainment

This wonderful action-adventure game developed by SEGA follows a Japanese samurai with a re-constructed artificial body on a quest to track down 48 demons and take his body parts back from the ghouls.

While the game is based on Osamu Tezuka’s famous Dororo manga, you’ll only get to play as the sly rogue by plugging in a second controller for Co-Op mode.

The thief can’t possibly compare to the protagonist in terms of destructive power, but he’ll contribute to the fighting in his own way.

Play this with anyone who can appreciate the beautiful art direction, deep story, and collectible-hunting.

21. Def Jam: Fight for NY

September 1, 2004 Syn Sophia, EA Vancouver

EA’s Def Jam is one of the most unique and frankly absurd franchises out there.

And its ridiculous concept is exactly what makes it so good to spend an afternoon going at it with your peeps.

For those of you not in the know, Def Jam: Fight for NY is a beat-’em-up starring none other than hip-hop superstars like Flavor Flav, Fat Joe and even Busta Rhymes.

As expected, the game has a stellar soundtrack with many licensed songs in the hip-hop genre. And the combat system is surprisingly engaging.

It’s a pleasure seeing the developers taking the time to make a game with such an obvious selling point actually good.

20. Red Faction II

October 16, 2002 Volition

Playing as a rebel militia in a Mars colony is an aesthetic that’s hard to beat.

And it’s also the perfect setting for a friendly shootout with your chums.

While Red Faction II is a very good shooter to play through alone, it truly shines when it comes to the multiplayer arena.

Both because of its fluidity and its awesome weapons such as the fan-favorite Magnetic Rail Driver, which makes a return from the first installment.

There’s nothing quite like living the anti-government extremist fantasy to let all the political unrest out of your spirit so you can do your taxes in peace.

19. Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus

May 23, 2002 Arc System Works, Capcom

It’s intense, it’s ridiculously fast-paced, and nigh-impossible to understand for newcomers – yes I’m talking about Guilty Gear.

The Guilty Gear franchise has garnered a cult following over the years.

It’s difficult to determine whether the incomprehensibly complex plot has helped or hampered its progress, but it’s definitely one of its main features.

Regardless, this solid 2D fighter from Arc System Works doesn’t need you to get the plot to enjoy it’s heavy-metal-meets-anime aesthetic and interesting characters.

It’s a must-play if you have a group of friends who’re serious about button mashing. And if you like this one it’s worth keeping up with any future games from the franchise.

18. Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium

August 3, 2001 Capcom

If you’re a fan of flashy combat then you can’t pass up a chance to play Capcom vs. SNK 2.

Even though it’s a bit less varied in character styles than something like Marvel vs. Capcom, the sheer amount of fighters makes up for it in spades.

That said, the quality of the sprites does vary considerably among the 40 characters. To the point where you’ll feel like you’re playing MUGEN on your PC.

Still, that’s far from an issue once you’re in the heat of battle.

And you’re liable to share some laughs with friends over the dissimilarities.

17. Ratchet: Deadlocked

October 25, 2005 Insomniac Games

The fourth entry in the Ratchet & Clank franchise (even though it’s missing Clank) is simply an amazing, lighthearted, and quirky third-person shooter.

It’s a game that anyone with a taste for blowing stuff up can enjoy.

Not only does it feature a 4-man split-screen shootout mode, but the possibility to go through the entirety of its campaign in Co-Op.

While the main player controls Ratchet, the second player takes control of a combat bot as they both risk life and limb in massive firefights against hordes of enemies. Like true bros.

The fact that both characters share a bullet pool and weapons roster helps keeps things interesting, forcing each player into different roles depending on the available guns.

16. Bloody Roar 3

June 25, 2001 Hudson Soft, Eighting

Bloody Roar has always been my favorite old-school fighter franchise ever since I played the first installment on the original PlayStation.

And I was very pleased with its first release on the sixth console generation.

While Bloody Roar has always set itself apart from other franchises with its animal transformation mechanics, this entry sets itself apart from the rest of the series in that the developers put a lot more care into making a balanced fighter.

Whether you live for the furry aesthetic or would rather beat one up, this game allows you to do both.

Great, considering common ground is so scarce these days.

15. SSX 3

October 20, 2003 EA Vancouver

After the critical success that was SSX Tricky, beloved for its wacky style and intense gameplay, expectations were high for the sequel.

EA Canada delivered.

The game took what made the amazing, twisting racing tracks of Tricky so good and perfected it.

Its graphics were simply stunning back then and the open-world aspect that had you racing down different sides of a single mountain was just magnificent.

If you’re looking for a snowboarding experience on the PS2, you can’t go better than SSX 3.

And this goes double if you’re playing with friends.

14. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3

November 16, 2004 Dimps

Few things are as exciting for a fan of Dragon Ball Z than the Budokai games.

With over 40 characters to choose from, including new additions such as Omega Shenron and the Legendary Saiyan Broly, the third installment in Bandai’s series of DBZ-simulators is ideal for any group of enthusiasts in need of some fun.

Before Budokai Tenkaichi came out on the Wii, you simply couldn’t get a Dragon Ball Z game that was truer to the show than Budokai 3.

13. Twisted Metal: Black

June 18, 2001 Incognito Entertainment

Deep in our hearts, we all want to take part in a destruction derby.

Since doing so in real life is complicated and potentially dangerous to our health, Sony’s Twisted Metal franchise is the next best thing.

With its warped clinically insane characters, high-octane battle vehicles, and destructive weaponry galore, a 4-man free-for-all in Twisted Metal: Black is the perfect cathartic experience for you and your friends after a bad day.

And on the good days?

You can just have fun blowing stuff up with your bestie in the game’s Co-Op campaign!

12. Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance

December 4, 2001 Snowblind Studios

That said, some of us prefer the more calculated and orderly mayhem of isometric hack’n’slash games such as Diablo or, in this case, Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance.

I mention Diablo because like so many other games in the genre, Baldur’s Gate: DA plays almost identically to the former.

Which is in no way a bad thing.

And while its amazing dark-fantasy storyline is a pleasure to experience by yourself, it can be even better if you get the right friends for some Co-Op action.

11. Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory

March 21, 2005 Ubisoft Montreal

Personally I’m a Metal Gear Solid man through and through.

Still, there’s one thing Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory does better than any Metal Gear game – it has a split-screen Co-Op mode, and it’s fantastic.

That may sound completely chaotic for a stealth game.

But that’s precisely where Ubisoft’s genius lies. It works!

In fact, the tension that working in tandem brings to the table is vastly superior to simply cheesing enemies by taking advantage of their basic AI.

What makes it work is, of course, that they took the time to make a parallel campaign for Co-Op rather than just forcing a second player into the main story. Kudos to you, Ubisoft.

10. 007: Everything or Nothing

November 17, 2003 EA Redwood Shores

While it will never reach the relevancy and user-acclaim that GoldenEye did on the previous generation of consoles, EA’s 007: Everything or Nothing remains a very solid FPS with a great multiplayer arena – and the James Bond charm never gets old.

You could also play 007: Nightfire or 007: Agent Under Fire, but this one has considerably better graphics, and Nightfire has terrible bots.

I’d say really all of them are fantastic though(for different reasons).

9. Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks

September 16, 2005 Midway Games

Midway’s classic fighter had a pretty mediocre run for the entirety of the PS2’s lifespan.

But the one time they dared step outside of their comfort zone, they hit it out of the park.

Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks offers a stellar 3D beat-’em-up experience that’s unlike anything else in the series.

And the best part is you can play through the entirety of Liu Kang and Kung Lao’s adventure along with a friend!

8. Soulcalibur II

July 5, 2002 Project Soul, Namco

Despite there being a Soulcalibur III for the PS2, this gem of a game remains the best in the console.

And according to some, the best of the entire series.

The reason for this lies primarily in how well-balanced the game is, which in turn keeps it fun.

It also has a pretty large character roster which includes veterans like Sophitia and Nightmare, as well as the bizarre addition of Heihachi Mishima from Tekken.

It may not offer Link like in the GameCube version. But it’ll do.

7. Dynasty Warriors 4

February 27, 2003 Omega Force

The fourth installment in the long-storied Dynasty Warriors franchise featured amazing graphics and expanded gameplay features that made it into one of the most well-received by fans worldwide.

The possibility of going through the campaign’s battles along with a friend was included in the previous release, but developer Omega Force had to learn from their mistakes to make it truly great for DW4.

You may not know this, but the series is loosely based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms by Luo Guanzhong. Easily one of the finest literary pieces originating in China, which makes it the perfect game to play with your friends from Book Club.

I also covered some of the better games in this series if you’re looking for even more titles to check out(multiplayer or not).

6. Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War

March 23, 2006 Namco Bandai

Namco’s Ace Combat franchise is probably the single best aerial dogfight simulator franchise ever, and ACZ: The Belkan War is the best on the PS2.

It serves as a prequel to all other Ace Combat games. It offers an engaging story told through radio chatter and on-screen action to keep you hooked.

The gameplay, while not too different from previous games, is incredibly polished and fluid as well.

Overall the game is a pleasure to play. And it’s even better when you go through the campaign in Co-Op.

5. Contra: Shattered Soldier

October 22, 2002 Konami

Who doesn’t know Contra?

Not only is Konami’s quintessential shoot-’em-up an iconic piece of gaming history, but a very fun and intense game in most of its releases, Shattered Soldier included.

I mean yes, it’s a really hard game – but isn’t it challenge what we seek in videogames?

Plus it’s said that friendships only grow stronger when facing hardship together.

So stop wasting time, grab a friend, and get this badass diesel-fueled adventure rolling!

4. Champions of Norrath: Realms of EverQuest

February 10, 2004 Snowblind Studios

Despite Baldur’s Gate being the most well-known hack’n’slash RPG by Snowblind Studios thanks to its frankly better story, Champions of Norrath remains the better game.

And I feel this way in terms of gameplay, class variety, and graphics.

Back in the PS2 era this game was more often than not the only thing my geeky friends and I ever wanted to play.

Partly because of its narrative connection to EverQuest, which is one of the most famous and influential MMORPGs of the decade.

It’s fast-paced and very punishing at times, but once you and your squad get the hang of things they’re going to need heavy machinery to pry the DualShock from your addicted hands.

3. Rock Band 2

September 14, 2008 Harmonix Music Systems, Pi Studios

We can’t all make it past the “garage band” stage in our musical career.

Hell, most of us can’t even get to that point to begin with!

That’s where Rock Band 2 comes in with its still-incredible instrument variety that’ll let you and your friends live the rocker lifestyle from the comfort of your living room.

Guitars, drums, vocals – this has it all!

You really haven’t had a truly tight squad until you’ve jammed together in RB2 at least once, so what are you waiting for?

2. TimeSplitters: Future Perfect

March 21, 2005 Free Radical Design

No matter what sixth-gen console we’re talking about, it’s impossible not to mention Free Radical’s TimeSplitters franchise, whether it’s TS2 or Future Perfect.

With an expansive wealth of game modes, wacky characters, many weapons to choose from in competitive multiplayer, not to mention an amazing Co-Op experience, this game will keep you and your chums hooked to the console for hours.

Also make sure not to skip playing Virus mode – it’s the PS2 equivalent of Call of Duty: Zombies or GoW’s Horde mode, and it descends into chaos just as quickly.

1. Star Wars Battlefront II

November 1, 2005 Pandemic Studios

Wasn’t it obvious?

Before the veritable disaster that were the last couple of entries in the franchise after it was acquired by EA, Star Wars Battlefront II was the measuring stick for large-scale shooters.

It puts players right in the middle of many huge battles that shaped Star Wars history. Such as the battle of Hoth, as one of the many varied and fun-to-play classes.

Space battles are also one of the game’s most exciting features that allow you to board and pilot iconic ships in large-scale skirmishes.

Talk about fan service.

It’s not only the best multiplayer shooter on the PS2, but probably one of the best in the history of gaming. And it might even be the best Star Wars game to date.

Best multiplayer games on Steam, that’s what you are looking for, right?

This gaming genre is an exciting way to have a great time with your friends or to compete with other people.

The problem is that there are too many multiplayer games on Steam right now and it is kind of hard to choose the right one. You may waste a lot of your precious time while making the research.

Therefore, in this article, I have gathered only the best multiplayer games on Steam including fun and the best FREE multiplayer games on Steam.


1. PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS

The best multiplayer game on Steam right now is PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.

You might have already heard of this game as it had started the battle royale era in the gaming industry.

But if you have not, the rules of this game are simple.

A hundred players fight against each other on a big map and the last man who stays alive wins.

In order to survive you have to be lucky enough finding useful equipment and to choose the right strategy to outplay your opponents.

Also, I have great news for those looking to play multiplayer games with their friends. In PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, you can play not only solo mode but cooperative as well gathering a small squad and fighting with other teams.


2. Grand Theft Auto V

The second best multiplayer game on Steam is Grand Theft Auto V.

Basically, GTA V is an open world action-adventure game where you play as a criminal who wants to succeed in life by doing dangerous heists.

In its online mode, players can gather in teams to accomplish missions, compete in racing activities, skirmish in a deathmatch, or participate in a heist working as a part of a team.

Besides that, Grand Theft Auto Online features a PVE system which means you can develop your character and buy property, weapons, vehicles, etc by earning experience and money after successfully finished missions.


3. Insurgency: Sandstorm

The next best multiplayer game on Steam is Insurgency: Sandstorm.

It is a realistic first person shooter where you can either fight against other players in up to 16 vs. 16 game mode or against AI with a squad of up to 8 team members.

Usually, the party with better teamwork and strategy wins the game.

Insurgency: Sandstorm also has a ranking system which will help you to play with the gamers of the same skill based on your results from competitive matchmaking.


4. Rocket League

The fourth best multiplayer game on Steam I have found is Rocket League.

Rocket League is a combination of driving and soccer where you have to work as a part of a team to score more goals in order to win.

In the game, you can play not only typical 4 vs. 4 online matches but split screen mode as well which is also can be played online against another team of split-screen players.


5. Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege

The next position in my best multiplayer games on Steam list is taken by Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege.

This is a tactical first-person shooter where you have to develop powerful strategies to outplay your enemies.

Essentially, there are two sides on the battleground: attack and defense.

And while the defense has to do anything to not let the enemy capture the building, the attack has to stick to a great strategy in order to breach the enemy.


6. Dead by Daylight

Dead by Daylight is the best multiplayer game on Steam of the horror genre.

Its unique and fantastic multiplayer gameplay features four survivors who are trying to escape from the killer.

Another good point of the game is that all levels are generated automatically which means that nobody knows what to expect.


7. XCOM 2

XCOM 2 is the best multiplayer strategy game on Steam.

It is turn-based, so if you are willing to develop tactical skills, it is definitely for you.

The main goal of the game is to defeat the Earth from the invasion of aliens.

Although XCOM 2 is essentially for single player, you also can play its fascinating multiplayer mode taking the side of either aliens or humans on automatically-generated maps.

For me, it is like a game of the chess of XXI century.


8. Rust

Another best multiplayer game on Steam I can recommend you is Rust.

It is a fun and engaging project where you have to hunt, look for resources, craft, build, and fight against the other players to survive.

The best part is that you can cooperate with your friends which will increase your chances to stay alive and even build a big town.


9. MONSTER HUNTER: WORLD

In MONSTER HUNTER: WORLD, you will play as a hunter who slays the monsters.

This best multiplayer game on Steam is based on quests which you can accomplish either in solo or in a team.

At the end of each level, there is a huge monster whom you have to kill in order to succeed.

From the materials you get by killing monsters, you can craft stronger equipment to fight bigger beasts.

The game is not just a usual MMORPG and has really diverse gameplay.


10. Empyrion – Galactic Survival

The next best multiplayer game on Steam I want to feature is Empyrion – Galactic Survival.

It is an open world sandbox survival game in the space.

I think the previous line was enough to get your interest to this game.

There are no limits at all.

You can build stations, create multi-planetary vehicles, explore other planets, fight against other species, and conquer their planets.


11. Dota 2

Although Valve makes everything possible to kill the game, Dota 2 still is among the best free multiplayer games on Steam.

It is a game of the MOBA genre, so basically you will be joined to a 5-player team to fight against another one.

Rules of the game are simple: the first one who destroys enemy’s base wins.

12. Warframe

The second game on the list of the best free multiplayer games on Steam is Warframe.

Warframe is a third-person shooter where you can gather with a squad of your friends to complete various missions or fight against real players in PvP mode.

13. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

You might have expected to see this game in the first list of the best multiplayer games on Steam, but I have added it here because recently Valve had transitioned this game to the free-to-play model.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a first-person shooter where you can take the side of either the Terrorists team or the Counter-Terrorists to eliminate all members of the enemy squad or complete a special mission (such as planting or defusing the bomb or defending or rescuing the hostages).

The key ingredient of a victory is great teamwork and your personal skill.

14. Path of Exile

Path of Exile is another best free multiplayer game on Steam.

In this multiplayer RPG game from an overhead perspective, you will get a chance to complete quests exploring dungeons and fighting monsters in order to upgrade a character and equipment.

Also, Path of Exile features PvP mode of different types such as dueling, capture the flag, Sarn Arena, cut-throat, and tournaments.

So, you will definitely have fun playing it, especially if you are a fan of Diablo.

15. War Thunder

Interested in driving combat vehicles more than controlling a character?

Then, War Thunder is the best free multiplayer game on Steam for you.

Here you can choose an airplane, helicopter, tank, or ship to participate in large-scale battles between all the mentioned vehicles at once.

16. Team Fortress 2

Although this game is pretty much old, it still holds the sixth position in the top of the best free multiplayer games on Steam.

Team Fortress 2 is a game of FPS genre where you will join one of two teams consisting from nine character classes to fight with another one in different gaming modes (e.g. capture the flag, control the points, attack/defend etc.).

17. SMITE

We have already seen a MOBA game in our best free multiplayer games on Steam, but this one is a little bit different.

Instead of playing from an overhead perspective as in Dota 2, SMITE’s gameplay offers to play from the third person.

18. Ring of Elysium

Ring of Elysium is another battle royale game.

Unlike the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, it is a free multiplayer game on Steam. Another difference is that it features only 60 players per game instead of a usual hundred for battle royale games.

And while it has a great advantage as free access, there are lots of disadvantages.

The game is on the early development stage, so you are likely to experience some bugs.

Moreover, Ring of Elysium has only one map which can bore you over time.

On the other hand, I totally understand the creators and think they have made an awesome most valuable product to evaluate if the game worth continuation of development.

So, let’s wish good luck to the guys and move to the ninth best free multiplayer game on Steam.

19. Paladins

Paladins is a team-based first-person shooter game.

At the beginning of a skirmish, you will be able to pick one of forty heroes to fight in one of the featured modes such as siege, team deathmatch, or onslaught.

20. Trove

The last best free multiplayer game on Steam is Trove.

It is a cubed open-ended MMORPG with a lot of quests, monsters, bosses, and equipment.

As well as in almost any cubed game, there is a building and crafting mode.

Besides that, Trove also has an exciting PvP mode.

21. Human: Fall Flat

Human: Fall Flat is the most popular fun game on Steam right now.

It is a physics puzzle platformer where you need to find an exit in order to move to the next level.

The game has very amusing riddles, so you will definitely have fun solving them.


22. Tabletop Simulator

It is the second best fun multiplayer game on Steam which is a physics sandbox simulator where you can play board games with your friends.

The fun part of it is that you can do with game objects anything you want.

There are no rules at all. You can even mix them up to create your own game.


23. Overcooked! 2

Top Multiplayer Games Pc

The next best fun multiplayer game is Overcooked! 2.

It is a cooperative cooking simulator where you need to collaborate with the team of up to four players to make orders in ridiculous restaurants.

Beside usual cooking like chopping, combining, cooking, and serving ingredients, some levels include different obstacles to make the game fun (i.e. moving floors or impassable fires).


24. Gang Beasts

This game is pretty much similar to the first best fun multiplayer game on Steam.

But instead of solving exciting puzzles, you can fight with your opponents using unlimited physical abilities.

Best

In order to win, you have to throw your enemy out of the stage.


25. Brawlhalla

Brawlhalla is a 2D fighting platformer which supports up to 8 players on the arena.

It has a lot of different game modes but mainly you have to knock the opponents off the stage.

On the arena, there are lots of different weapons that spawn randomly from the sky to help the one who gets them first to win.

You definitely should try playing this best fun multiplayer game on Steam with your friends, though it will bore you over time.

26. Garry’s Mod

Garry’s Mod is a physics sandbox game which means there are no predefined objectives to win the game.

You just have a lot of tools and unlimited capabilities in order to have fun.

27. Golf With Your Friends

The next best fun multiplayer game on Steam is Golf With Your Friends.

As you might have already guessed, it is all about golf, to be more precise – mini-golf.

The game itself supports up to 12 players and has a lot of entertaining levels which will never bore you.

Besides that, the game also has modifiers like low gravity, different game modes (i.e. hockey), and a level editor which makes it extremely fun.


28. Cuphead
