Players can expect a variety of gameplay when they try A Way Out. There is a lot of running and fighting that players have to do, but there is also a lot of sneaking, driving, and even some fishing along the way.

Two-Person Co-Op Experience
As previously mentioned, A Way Out is a co-op game and it actually requires two players. A player gets to play the role of either Leo or Vincent.
According to the EA website, Leo is described as an inmate who is not the type to make friends. He is willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. On the other hand, Vincent has not been an inmate for very long, but he is already more than ready to get out of prison.
Teamwork is of high importance when playing A Way Out and the two players must work together in order to solve puzzles that they will come across.
