Brotato,one of the highest rated roguelikes of all time on Steam, is getting its first DLC this Summer alongside a new four-player co-op update.
Finally, arriving as a free update to all players around the ame time is Brotato’s new four-player local co-op mode, which is exactly what it says on the tin. You and up to three friends can band together against spud-hating aliens in the same room and on the same screen. The co-op update also includes some balancing tweaks, fixes, and “new content to enrich the gameplay experience and ensure that Brotato continues to be a dynamic and engaging game for new and returning players alike.”
If you’re unfamiliar, the quickest way to gain a rudimentary understanding of Brotato is by imagining a baby game born from Vampire Survivors and The Binding Of Isaac, but here the main character is from Potato World and is thus a potato. Story-wise, there ain’t much goin' on. You’re the titular potato bro and you’re forced into an intense top-down survival situation after crashing into a hostile alien planet. You’ve gotta love it.
