The trailer for We Are So Cooked, a nice, cozy co-op physics stealth game about trying to hide a dead body with your friends, dropped today after the game went viral for its premise earlier this month. The trailer does a good job of highlighting the particular challenges of trying to stealthily remove a dead body from a busy hotel, from abundant security cameras to the body’s floppiness. The game, which comes from indie developers Dwarven Brothers, premiered its trailer on Geoff Keighley’s X account and The Game Awards Instagram.

Though the game is technically playable solo, individual players will face extra challenges. According to We Are So Cooked‘s Steam page, “dragging the body alone is slow and leaves a bloody trail,” and “You can hold an item, OR you can drag the body. You can’t do both. You’ll have to scream at your friends to open doors for you.” Co-op play doesn’t guarantee an easier path to victory, though: you’ll have to dodge security guards, dogs, and other hotel guests while trying to navigate down stairs and around corners with an awkward, heavy dead body that seems determined to slip out of your hands. You’ll have to come up with a solid plan and work together carefully to avoid dropping the body—the description warns that “if you pull left and your friend pulls right, you’re going to drop him down the stairs.”
We Are So Cooked‘s lighthearted approach to manslaughter is a nice respite from co-op games with heavier themes, like Hazelight Studios’ fun-looking but actually harrowingly grim divorce game It Takes Two. At least you and your fellow players are on the same page in this one. We Are So Cooked is set to release sometime in 2026.
