I often find myself replaying bosses with my boyfriend, because it has couch co-op and an amazing one at that!

Thankfully, the DLC got rid of the run and gun levels, and instead focused entirely on the bosses, featuring some of the best fights in the entire game, as well as new gimmick fights that put your parry skills to the test.
