Sony's PlayStation Plus Extra subscription boasts a diverse library catering to various gaming preferences. From sprawling RPGs like Dragon Quest XI and Skyrim to shorter, action-packed adventures such as Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and competitive multiplayer experiences like For Honor, there's a title for nearly every gamer. This includes those seeking cooperative gameplay.
Local co-op and split-screen games offer a classic, couch-based gaming experience, perfect for a night in with friends. (A separate article details the best examples of these on PS Plus.) However, online co-op remains incredibly popular, and Sony's service delivers a strong selection in this area. This article highlights the best online co-op games available through PS Plus for shared gaming adventures.
