What’s Happening:

  • The curated Father’s Day gaming lineup spans multiple generations of Disney, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and 20th Century Studios properties, giving longtime fans and casual players alike plenty to enjoy across consoles and PC.
  • For families hoping to spend Father’s Day gaming together, several titles focus heavily on cooperative gameplay and classic couch multiplayer experiences.

Featuring local and online multiplayer for up to four players, the game also includes drop-in and drop-out functionality, making it easy for families to jump into the action together.

  • Marvel fans looking for something more nostalgic can also revisit classic titles with the Marvel MaXimum Collection. The collection bundles together several iconic Marvel games including X-Men: The Arcade Game, Captain America and The Avengers, and Venom/Spider-Man: Separation Anxiety. The multiplayer-focused lineup offers both online and local cooperative play, making it an ideal pick for retro gaming dads.

  • Classic Disney animation fans have another nostalgic option with The Disney Afternoon Collection, which celebrates beloved Disney Afternoon cartoons through restored retro games. Cooperative favorites like Goof Troop and the Chip ‘N Dale Rescue Rangers games remain standout experiences for players wanting to relive classic platforming adventures together.
