Multiplayer video games are a great way to get together with friends, family, and people worldwide. You can play them at home or go somewhere with your portable console and play there. Either way, they’re a fantastic way to have fun and spend your free time.

There are different ways of enjoying multiplayer games. First, you can all compete against each other or split into teams and compete that way. You can also play co-op, which means everyone works together to beat the game. These are my favorite type of games because, at least for my friends and me, we always end up completely forgetting the missions and just trying dumb things around the open world. And by dumb things, I mean plotting the most creative ways to kill each other off, just to annoy each other.

The popularity of multiplayer games has led to a considerable increase in revenue for video game developers and publishers. For many gamers, it’s all about competition and social interaction, but it’s clear that replayability has a fundamental role in the popularity of a good multiplayer video game. There are a lot of titles to choose from, but not all of them are worth your time. Here are some of the best multiplayer games you can play right now!

#1

Among Us

Among Us

Among Us is a game with an extraordinary power: testing even the strongest friendships and making you doubt them in the blink of an eye. The goal is to find out who, out of everyone on the spaceship, is the impostor killing off the other crew members. Or, if you’re the impostor, murder everyone without letting them find out you’re the real back-stabber. Enjoy the hunt!

You can enjoy the game at your own pace, and it gets even better when you add other players, with an abundance of light-hearted activities to do together and features (from building furniture to decorating your house to catching bugs) that will keep you enthralled for hours.

Only good with at least one other player. In single player mode you’re constantly switching between two different chefs, which gets frustrating.

My current addiction! Since there's no description: this is a game where four people (or you can go it alone if you're feeling really brave) go into various buildings to find and identify a ghost, using some of the same equipment you see on those ghost hunting shows! But be careful, when your sanity gets too low the ghost will hunt and possibly kill you! Still in early access on Steam but the developer has made tons of updates/improvements and will continue to do so. Give it a try!
