gaming buddy

Co-op partner friend

A gaming buddy is a friend you regularly play video games with, whether online or in person.

The term implies companionship beyond mere teammates—someone whose company you enjoy and whose gaming schedule aligns with yours: I need a gaming buddy for co-op missions.

The relationship may exist entirely within gaming or extend to real-life friendship.
