It Takes Two has taken home the coveted Game of the Year trophy at this year’s Game Awards.
The co-op platformer beat off competition from Resident Evil Village, Psychonauts 2, Metroid Dread, and Deathloop to win the award. You can watch the game’s director, Josef Fares’ reaction below (video has been timestamped), it’s worth it.
It’s not the only award that the Hazelight developed game won, with it also claiming honours for both Best Family Game and Best Multiplayer Game.
We gave It Takes Two an 8.5 in our review, saying that “A fun, gorgeous platforming romp that makes great use of its split screen-only twist in both gameplay and narrative.”
Do you think It Takes Two is a worthy winner? Let us know in the comments or on social media.
Despite a childhood playing survival horrors, point and clicks and beat ’em ups, these days Zach tries to convince people that Homefront: The Revolution is a good game while pining for a sequel to The Order: 1886 and a live-action Treasure Planet film.
