More open world local coop games like Lego City Undercover?

[BassForever]

Just spent the past week having a blast playing Lego City Undercover on switch with my youngest sister. Being able to independently explore the massive open world was a blessing as i was largely able to explore on my own while my sister could focus on pushing forward with the story.

I'm not necessarily looking for child friendly open world games, but any other open world games you can do local coop with would be awesome.

I'd be curious too, as my daughter and I had a blast with Lego City Undercover but there aren't many like it. A few of the other recent Lego games have limited open worlds, although there isn't much to do in them.

Portal Knights isn't strictly open world but a patch last year enabled each local player to visit different areas, so you can explore independently.

That also reminds me that it's absolutely criminal Don't Starve Together does not have local co-op on PC (it does on PS4).

Another LEGO game: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2



It has a wide variety of characters so it's pretty cool :D

Saint Row games I think.

Actually I don't know if they're even offline coop

Obvious answer but... minecraft...??

Also terraria, starbound etc.

Did they eventually patch in local co-op? I remember thinking for ages that it needed it.

We've played Minecraft before, I guess I was looking for more crafted open worlds and not procedural ones. That and terraria are good choices though.

Err doesn't look like it actually, my bad! I always find ways to blur the lines between online and co-op with my partner so I forget which games have which...

PS Borderlands series has local co-op doesn't it? But I don't think it's ever made it to switch...

Interested in this too. Saints Row is great but doesn't do local. I used to play SR2 in LAN in my bedroom, it was such a fun experience.

I think Lego games are the best answer to anything local coop now.

Reminder that Lego Star Wars the Skywalker Saga will have an open galaxy with local coop. Can't wait to see some gameplay on this one.

The RPG Outward that was released a few months ago has local co-op.
