Fares is becoming a master of his chosen format. “Split Fiction” continues his experiments into creating games that require two players to work together to overcome obstacles. “It Takes Two,” a lovely tale about two soon-to-be divorced parents forced to work together, has sold 23 million copies since its 2021 debut, Fares confirmed. The game won numerous awards, including coveted game of the year trophies from the Game Awards and the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences. His 2018 prison escape tale, “A Way Out,” has now sold 11 million.

11million units X 2 people to play is a bunch of people.

 

[Superkewl]

Good for them. I am not interested in them, but I like success stories

 

[Terenty]

They are hands down one of the best in the industry right now. Haven't played Split Fiction yet, but It Takes Two is a fucking masterpiece, that even Nintendo wished they came up with

I started Split Fiction with my buddy tonight and its been a lot of fun so far

And a lot of cheesy oneliners

Josef Fares is one of the most talented creators in the industry. I have been a fan of his work since Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, and I am happy that his games are successful with the general audience as well.

Why doesn't someone try to copy this? Clearly there is a hunger for this type of game. I preordered Split Fiction because the other 2 games were great to play with my son and will buy any game like this blind.

Going to play it with my 6yo daughter tonight. We loved It Takes Two - and were both annoyed by the stupid book of love lol.

A Way Out was great! Brought back so many good memories of Army Of Two (the original)!

 

[daxgame]

To be fair It Takes Two... I've seen it often discounted to pennies, but it's a good game, so glad for them.

 

[The Skull]

Well deserved. Both excellent fun games.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

It Takes Two is a real gem. Only in today’s market that game can not be considered a masterpiece.

Oh I've been meaning to get the remake for that.

Dont forget Split Fiction is cross platform as well with the friends pass, so if you know someone on a platform different to yours you could maybe find someone

 

[Kings Field]

start Split last night with my buddy and we are enjoying it. We played A Way Out and It Takes Two together so we had to play this one. I wasn’t sure how the cross platform would work so I got it for Series X instead of Pro and it runs flawless. Nice break from MHW and KCD2

 

[Skifi28]

I own it, but haven't played it yet. I do have a friend that has been pestering me to play it lately, maybe we'll give it a try.

 

[Hugare]

Deserved

It Takes Two was the first game me and my gf played when we were still knowing each other, and now we are playing Split Fiction together in our home.

Amazing game so far, very varied and so much fun.

 

[Gonzito]

It takes two cojones to sell that much

Congratulations

 

[Valonquar]

That's a lot of people working hard to make a little girl cry for no reason.

Played some of ITT last night with the wife.

Fun gameplay but story is cringe as F.
