On paper, Naughty Bear is the closest thing to an unofficial Friday the 13th game that us gamers had at the time.

When The Outer Worlds released last year on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, it won acclaim from critics and consumers alike for its choice-driven gameplay and clever writing. However, when the RPG came to Switch, players on Nintendo’s console didn’t get to see the game at its best; the performance can be pretty rough. To address concerns
Square Enix’s four-player co-op action/RPG, which originally launched on the Nintendo Gamecube in 2004, is coming to the PlayStation 4, Switch, iOS, and Android, and you’ll be able to play with friends online.
