Best Multiplayer and Co-Op Games of August 2018
Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes (Switch and Xbox One)
Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes is the super fun co-op game where one person is looking at a crazy confusing bomb with tons of different panels to decipher and the rest of the group has to read through a physical manual to talk them through how to disarm it before times runs out. The person holding the bomb is never allowed to look at the manual, so communication is key to keep everyone from exploding.
This fun party game released originally on PC with VR functionality back in 2015, which transferred well with the “defuser” being the whoever was wearing the VR helmet. It then came to PS4 compatible with PSVR in October 2016, and finally has come to Xbox One and Nintendo Switch this past month as well.
It released for Nintendo Switch on Aug. 16, and on Xbox One a day later on Aug. 17.
