A Way Out: All information about Coop mode

In "A Way Out" you play two prison inmates who are planning and executing their escape. With Leo and Vincent, the game has two protagonists, so you absolutely need a teammate.

• To play "A Way Out" with a friend, you have two options. Either you play together on a PC or a console with two controllers.
• Alternatively, each player can play alone on their own PC or console. The game is available for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
• No matter in which mode - "A Way Out" always runs in the split screen. Cross-play is unfortunately not possible, so you can only play together on two identical platforms.
• Since you absolutely need a teammate, only one player needs to own the game. The teammate is invited free of charge via a link. This function is called "friend fun". Simply select the player you want from your friends list. This will send them a download link.
• Particularly practical: You can invite any number of friends to the game. Since the playing time is around 6 to 8 hours, you are not tied to a permanent teammate.
