Excellent Stardew Valley rival Mirthwood is finally about to get co-op

To me, co-op is what turns Stardew Valley into a truly phenomenal game. The farming sim is already brilliant without it, but the ability to easily play with friends makes any game better. The mixture of working together, chaos, and occasional bits of trickery always elevates the experience, and the delightful Mirthwood is no exception. This farming and life sim has been going from strength to strength since it launched, and the new announcement of a Mirthwood co-op update means it's only going to get better.
