About A Way Out

A Way Out is an adventure game from Hazelight Studios, published by Electronic Arts and released on March 23, 2018 for PS4, PC, and Xbox One. It is built around cooperative play for two players, and it is designed to be played in split-screen mode, either on the same console or online. Each player takes control of one of two prisoners, Leo and Vincent, who are brought together by circumstance and have to work as a team.

The game is presented from a third-person view and is rated for mature audiences by both ESRB and PEGI. Its gameplay mixes stealth, combat, driving, and puzzles that use the environment. The two players switch between different roles depending on the situation, so each one has a part to play in getting through the scene.

The story is set in 1972 and follows two men with a shaky partnership as they plan a way out of prison. The branching narrative plays out for both players at once through the split-screen layout, so each person experiences the story from their own side of the screen.
