10 great PS4 co-op games that might just destroy your relationship this Valentine’s Day

You can try fortune tellers, online quizzes or scan newspaper horoscopes, but in our opinion there’s only one true way to test whether your relationship is built to last: cooperative video games.

So with Valentine’s Day upon us, we thought it the perfect reason to offer up ten PlayStation 4 games that will really put your compatibility to the test – they’ll either expose the cracks in your communion or demonstrate what a rock-solid pairing you are. So take a look, and see which game you’ll want to get an extra controller for.

***Warning: the following may cause break-ups, or at the very least, heated arguments.***

1. Gang Beasts

You’ll need: Two controllers
Tests: Your trust issues

Boneloaf’s hilarious multiplayer game includes a brutal wave mode. Sure, you can stand back to back and battle off enemy hordes… but you could also resolve any niggling relationship frustrations by nudging your partner into the nearest furnace. Imagine a pillow fight, but with more spikey deathtraps.

2. Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes

You’ll need: PS VR, two controllers
Tests: Communication skills

Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes

What better formula for a healthy romantic relationship than the title of this brilliant PS VR co-op puzzler? You’ll need to prove your communication skills by working together to defuse a bomb. The PS VR-wearer faces the multi-part explosive face on, diffusing the device through instructions being fed by the other player… who can only find the correct documents by descriptions given by the PS VR player. It’s pictionary with a deathly twist.

3. Don’t Starve Together

You’ll need: Two controllers

4. Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime

You’ll need: Two controllers
Tests: Coordination, who’ll call the shots abroad

Taking a road trip with a loved one: idyllic adventure or delegation disaster? Go starside and find out if you’ve the coordination and compatibility to jointly run a spaceship. You may find yourself being shot into space before the journey’s through.

5. Salt and Sanctuary

8. Overcooked

You’ll need: Two controllers
Tests: If you’ve got to take dinner prep in turns

9. Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2

You’ll need: Two controllers
Tests: If you can settle an argument civilly

Is your ideal date dinner and catching the latest Marvel movie at the cinema? Well, why not enjoy your shared love of superheroes at home (and take a break from cosplaying at conventions) with the latest Lego adventure.
