In 2021, *It Takes Two* emerged as a standout title, captivating gamers worldwide with its innovative cooperative gameplay.

Its unique concept and engaging mechanics have left a lasting impact on the gaming community.

Given its overwhelming success, fans have been eagerly awaiting news of a sequel.

He added, "Who knows what the future holds? Never say never."

Despite the absence of an official announcement for a sequel, Hazelight is currently channeling their efforts into completing their next project, *Split Fiction*. Yet, Fares' comments have reignited hope among fans for a potential *It Takes Two 2*. While details about a sequel remain scarce, the interest in a follow-up is undeniably strong. Enthusiasts will continue to keep a close eye on any updates from Hazelight Studios, eagerly anticipating what the future might bring.
