It Takes Two is a cooperative, genre-blending action-adventure platformer designed to be played by two people—either couch-split-screen or online using Friend’s Pass/Remote Play Together. You control Cody and May, a couple transformed into dolls, and must use linked but different abilities to solve puzzles, overcome platforming sequences and progress a humorous, heartfelt narrative; the game also won Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2021.

Beyond its core co-op premise, It Takes Two mixes multiple play styles and inventive set-pieces so every level plays differently — think cooperative puzzles, platforming, light action segments and offbeat mini-games (kick gangster squirrels, pilot novelty vehicles, DJ a club). The game emphasizes teamwork: many encounters require coordination and complementary abilities rather than competitive play. Key highlights include: - Pure two-player focus with Friend’s Pass so one friend can join free. - Constantly changing mechanics and character-specific skills. - A strong narrative through-line that ties gameplay to relationship themes.
