Top co-op picks
Lethal Company
-
- Discount: 25%
- Price: $7.49
Lethal Company is a lean, tense four-player heist game where crews land on abandoned moons to grab scrap before time runs out. Proximity voice chat and dark, foggy levels turn routine runs into comedy and terror when teammates get separated. The price makes it an easy impulse buy for late-night squad sessions.
Deep Rock Galactic
- Discount: 70%
- Price: $8.99
Deep Rock Galactic is a one-to-four player cooperative FPS about space dwarves mining alien caverns. Fully destructible environments and four distinct classes reward coordination, and the mix of frantic missions and a cozy hub keeps teams coming back. At roughly the price of a couple of coffees, it’s a steal for recurring groups.
Left 4 Dead 2
- Discount: 80%
- Price: $1.99
Left 4 Dead 2 remains a compact, chaotic co-op shooter with short campaigns and survival modes that fit an evening’s play. It runs on practically anything and is perfect when the group wants immediate, low-commitment fun during holiday meetups.
Phasmophobia
- Discount: 30%
- Price: $13.99
Phasmophobia puts one to four players in the roles of paranormal investigators collecting evidence before the ghost attacks. The Winter’s Jest v0.15.1.0 update leaned into cold-weather atmosphere with visible breath and power outages, which fits seasonal play nicely; see the developer blog for details on that update here. The game also supports mixed VR and PC lobbies.
Overcooked! 2
- Discount: 75%
- Price: $6.24
Overcooked! 2 is a short-level, four-player kitchen panic simulator that works for mixed-skill groups and family gatherings. It’s light on hardware, plays well on Steam Deck and mid-range PCs, and the festive maps make it an obvious pick for holiday couch chaos.
These five picks cover a range of co-op styles: extraction horror, class-based looter-shooting, classic zombie runs, ghost hunting, and frantic local chaos. If the group wants more sale options across genres, the Steam Winter Sale roundup linked above has additional suggestions.
