Some couples bond over cozy nights in; others bond over trash talk after a lost match. If you're the second kind, here are the best competitive games for two.
Fast, tense duels
Clash Royale is a real-time card-and-tower duel — deploy troops, outsmart your partner's deck, and demand an immediate rematch when you lose.
Sports rivalries
Tennis Clash turns a swipe into a serve for quick, competitive 1v1 matches — simple enough to pick up fast, deep enough to keep the rivalry going.
Team-based competition
Pokémon UNITE is a friendlier way to compete together — team up in the same 5v5 match and coordinate lanes instead of facing off directly.
