Circle back to play Unravel Two after you’re done
I originally intended to hold off playingIt Takes Twountil it was included with EA Play, but word-of-mouth snowballed shortly after launch and I was too into co-op gaming to wait any longer. I don’t regret it! If you’ve been patiently waiting all along,now’s your chance. You can playIt Takes Twowith your EA Play or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription.
The full game is a part of EA Play and specifically Game Pass Ultimate (which includes EA Play) as of July 31, 2025. It’s onPC,PS4, PS5,Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
At the low end, you can sub to EA Play for $4.99 for just one month, get in, and get out.
So, is it worth your time?It Takes Twois arguably one of theyear’s best games, and as an exclusively co-op experience, that makes it one of the year’s best co-op games, too. There’s local and online multiplayer support, and if you don’t have someone nearby to buddy up with, you can team up with a long-distance partner using a freeFriend’s Pass.
While the story isn’t my favorite part, I appreciate that Hazelight Studios tried to do something interesting with its protagonists Cody and May, an on-the-rocks husband-and-wife duo. I also respect the challenge thatIt Takes Twois willing to throw down — both players need to show up and be vigilant during hectic boss fights and tricky puzzle-platformer sequences. There’s plenty of care-free downtime while you explore and goof off with your partner. In short, it’s kind of got a bit of everything. It’s multi-genre.
EA keeps greenlighting these wacky Hazelight co-op titles, and I’m here for it.
I’ll also giveUnravel Twoa nod since it’s in the EA Play library as well. You don’t need to have gone through the firstUnravel. While it’s a bit more traditional, the co-op is fun.
