One of 2021’s most influential games, It Takes Two, has reached 20 million copies sold. Being yet another co-op title from Hazelight Studios, It Takes Two is the second consecutive game of its kind by the indie developer.In a year with major releases from established franchises, such as Resident Evil: Village and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, It Takes Two impressively bagged Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2021. The win came on the back of a flurry of highly positive reviews and much fanfare, cementing the EA-published game’s status among the best couch co-op games in history. Notably, It Takes Two crossed the 1 million sales mark within a month of its launch. And now, it has reached another major sales milestone, continuing its stellar run. Related It Takes Two Deserves a Direct Sequel With audience demand for more story-driven co-op games, a direct sequel to Hazelight’s It Takes Two could fly even higher than the original. Hazelight Studios recently announced that It Takes Two has sold more than 20 million units in the three-and-a-half years since its release. The developer’s official tweet expressed being “so grateful” to fans for the major achievement that pits the game among some of the best couch co-op titles in recent memory. In another tweet, the platformer game’s director, Josef Fares, briefly summarized their take and said the feat was “beyond my wildest dreams.” Celebrating the co-op title’s remarkable performance, fans chipped in with comments praising the Sweden-based studio’s work. One of the fans said, “Fantastic game to play with your kids. Absolutely love it.” Another user expressed their excitement about a possible sequel to the game and quipped, “We can’t wait for It Takes Three!” It Takes Two Continues Strong Sales Performance, Hitting New Milestones More than three years after launch, It Takes Two’s sales continue to reach new heights, bringing in more players to experience Hazelight Studios’s magnum opus. In fact, it appears that its sales are accelerating instead of waning, having received a significant boost in the past several months. To be more precise, It Takes Two hit 10 million sales in February 2023, taking almost two years to achieve the milestone, whereas it needed just over a year-and-a-half more to double those numbers and hit 20 million copies sold. This kind of sales performance seems even more impressive when taking into account the co-op game’s Friend’s Pass, which allows an It Takes Two player to play the game with a friend without the latter needing to own the game. Close While It Takes Two contains its fair share of light moments and dark bits throughout the story campaign, the Hazelight Studios game originally had a much more darker tone, as revealed by the developer earlier this year. With certain fans having shown interest in seeing this unnerving take on the game become reality someday, the Swedish developer may want to tinker with the IP and bring darker elements from its origins back in the sequel if it’s announced down the road.
