What Are the Best 2 Player Games for Local Couch Co-op?

My roommate and I are looking for something new to play together on the weekends, but it feels like everything these days is focused on online multiplayer rather than local play. We’ve already finished "It Takes Two" and "A Way Out," and now we are searching for more 2 player games that actually offer a high-quality split-screen experience. We are open to different genres, whether it’s a competitive fighter, a cooperative puzzle-platformer, or even a deep RPG that allows for a second controller. Since many modern developers seem to be moving away from couch co-op, I’d appreciate any hidden gems or indie recommendations for 2 player games that can be played entirely on one console without needing a second subscription.
