A Chinese distributor leak suggests It Takes Two is heading to Nintendo Switch 2 on October 15, 2026, in cartridge form (~12.1GB) with English and other languages. The claim, based on a Prowell Asia Holdings document, follows the game’s 2022 Switch release and hints at improved resolution and performance on Switch 2. There is no official confirmation yet; readers are asked to await updates.
Josef Fares, Hazelight's CEO, says the studio will never go public because stock-market metrics could force 'stupid decisions' and undermine creativity; he highlights the Friends Pass as an example of balancing creative intent with business benefit, and stresses decisions will be made for the game rather than analytics. He warns against publishers chasing mid-tier 'AA' titles and affirms the need for both AAA and diverse games, pointing to Hazelight's Split Fiction, which sold 1 million in 48 hours and 2 million in its first week, as evidence of demand for cooperative experiences.
