Hazelight Studios has announced that A Way Out has sold more than two million copies. In addition, the team has announced that it is working on a brand new co-op game. Do note, however, that this new co-op game will not be a sequel to A Way Out.
A Way Out has sold 2 (two!) million copies đ„đ„ To all the millions of co-op fans out there, thank you for embracing the story of Leo and Vincent! We canât wait to show our next awesome co-op game – we know you will go nuts! #AWayOut #2million

My guess is that Hazelight will reveal its new title either at Gamescom 2019 or at The Video Game Awards. Let’s not forget that the first gameplay trailer for A Way Out was revealed at the VGA 2017 event.
It’s also worth noting that in April 2018, the game surpassed one million copies. As such, it took the team over a year in order to hit its two million milestone.
In case you aren’t aware of, A Way Out was a two-player experience in which each player controls one of the main characters. Players must work together to escape the prison and continue beyond into each characterâs lives.
Congratulations to Hazelight for selling two million copies, and let’s hope that its unannounced co-op title will be as good as A Way Out was!

Well, I played and won’t ever do that again. It’s mediocre at best!
But I would try something similar, the experience is nice.
A Way Out was mediocre. It was like a PS2 game. I really like the idea of bringing coop games back though, so thumbs up for them and let’s hope they come up with something of quality next time.
I can’t comprehend game sales these days, I have yet to see a single person who cared about this game, how did it sell two million copies?
Epic bought 2 million copies that’s how.
it’s called a hasty generalization fallacy.your personal experience doesnt account for the general interest the gaming population has expressed for this game.
Doesn’t account for the marketing budget you mean.
Sir, you need to relax your mammaries!
Lol
Curious how many of those “sales”, were bundles giveaways of some sort, or bargain bin sale buys.
If this pile of garbage legitimately sold 2M copies at their asking price, then this industry is in bigger trouble than I ever thought.
I see a bunch of negative comments about this game. True it wasnât groundbreaking or anything but as a couch coop game, a friend and i played through it in what 6-7hours in one day with pizza, liquor etc. Weâve had fun.
I know this may sound childish or stupid but sometimes itâs not just about the game, itâs about who youâre playing with and the moments that happening because of that game. Laughs, smiles, stress, name it.
I donât feel there are enough couch coop games like this that makes you feel like âhey man iâm coming over, letâs get some booze, food etc and do thisâ.
I feel like people are going to blast me easier than a knife goes through butter đ
No but they did say SP was dead
Or maybe check the news once in a while and you would know what i was talking about
