The Best Local Co-Op & Split-Screen Games You Can Play On Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch: a console that seamlessly adapts to any gaming scenario. While not the most powerful system on the market, its flexibility is unmatched, extending beyond its celebrated hybrid design. The Switch boasts a remarkably diverse library, encompassing virtually every genre imaginable. This versatility extends to its features, with numerous titles designed for both online multiplayer and local co-op experiences. Even with the rise of online gaming, the enduring appeal of couch co-op remains a cornerstone of the industry.

Navigating the Switch's vast and often cluttered eShop can be challenging. This article aims to simplify the process by highlighting some of the best couch co-op games available, helping you discover hidden gems.

Updated January 13, 2025 by Mark Sammut: 2025 begins with some exciting additions to the Switch's local co-op offerings, even if they're re-releases of older titles. Donkey Kong Country Returns: Tropical Freeze and Tales of Graces f Remastered launch on January 16th and 17th respectively, providing excellent options for both solo and group play. Tales of Graces f is particularly praised for its engaging combat system, while Donkey Kong Country Returns: Tropical Freeze is a consistently excellent platformer.

If these aren't quite what you're looking for, consider a noteworthy port released in October 2024. Jump to that game's section below.
