Co-op in It Takes Two: How to Play Together with a Friend on the Same PC
It Takes Two is a unique adventure platformer game that can only be played in co-op mode. You can start the game in various ways, including playing It Takes Two on the same PC. In this guide, we'll tell you all the effective ways to launch the game on different platforms.
How to Play It Takes Two with a Friend on the Same PC
To play the game on one PC, you only need to purchase an original digital copy of It Takes Two from the Origin digital store by Electronic Arts, and also connect an external controller. Any gamepad will do, whether it's from Xbox or PS4.
Important: It is impossible to play It Takes Two on the same PC without an additional controller!
After launching the game, select the «Local Play» option in the main menu. In the window that opens, the first player should choose keyboard control, and the second player should choose gamepad control. After that, you should select the characters you want to play as.
How to Play It Takes Two on Different PCs and Platforms
To start the game on different PCs, it's enough to purchase one digital copy of It Takes Two from the Origin digital store by Electronic Arts. The second player, who does not have a digital copy of It Takes Two, should log into their Origin account and install the «Friend's Pass» version. This version of the game is available on all platforms, but there are some restrictions on its use:
- The «Friend's Pass» supports play on different generations of platforms but does not support cross-platform play;
- Only the owner of the digital copy of the game can host games and invite other participants;
- Both players must have a registered Origin account;
- Both players must have an active internet connection.
If both players do not have a digital copy of the game, they can still complete the full first level of It Takes Two thanks to the «Friend's Pass». After purchasing the game, all the trial level saves will be available to you, and you can continue from where you left off last time.
