Josef Fares

And Apparently, He’d Rather Get Shot in the Knee Than Add NFTs to His Games. Josef Fares, movie director and developer of the Game of the Year, It Takes Two, is one of the more refreshingly blunt figures in the video game industry. He became infamous for his comment on the Oscars during the Game Awards in 2017, saying “F the Oscars”. But Fares seems to be the type to say what he wants to say, straight from the heart.

Josef Fares has spoken out about how much harder it is to create games compared to feature films. “As someone who’s been on both sides, doing six feature films and now four games, I’m telling you: When I go back and make a movie — which I will someday in the future — it’ll be like taking a vacation”

It Takes Two director Josef Fares says his studio's next game is "gonna be so crazy". In a new interview with Push Square, Fares isn't shy about bigging up the next game from developer Hazelight. "If you ask me about our next game, I can tell you now, it will be even better than It Takes Two," the director says. "It's gonna be so crazy. That's how sure I am, like the concept, what's gonna happen, and people will be blown away."

Josef Fares, game director of co-op action-adventure platformer It Takes Two, says "the amount of variation is insane. There are no similar scenarios," while discussing the game's latest trailer, which shows off "gleefully disruptive gameplay." In It Takes Two, Cody and May are going through a divorce. Their daughter Rose,...

Electronic Arts and developer Hazelight have released the first official gameplay trailer for their upcoming co-op adventure game It Takes Two. Director Josef Fares narrates the trailer and gives players an idea of what to expect when his team’s next crazy adventure lands on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC on March 26.

Josef Fares and Hazelight Studios have carved out a niche for themselves in the games industry that no one else really occupies. Fares’ emphatic personality might have something to do with that, but more importantly, the studio’s co-op action-adventure title, A Way Out, delivered an experience that was very different from what you usually see in major releases.

It Takes Two, the next game from A Way Out developer Hazelight Studios, has gone gold—and Josef Fares is so confident in its success that he'll give you a thousand dollars if you get bored of it. At least, that's what the notorious studio director told GameInformer in a recent...

Hazelight Studios has been championing the couch and online co-op experience for quite some time now. 2018’s A Way Out remains a fun time for a duo to play through, and the studio’s next game is set to continue in that vein. It Takes Two will be launching next month, and with the game going gold, the developers are hoping that success is imminent. No one feels more strongly about that than the studio director. In fact, anyone who gets bored of It Takes Two will get a $1,000 USD bounty from Josef Fares.

Well, someone’s feeling confident. Game director Josef Fares has said that he’ll give you $1,000 if you become tired of the upcoming It Takes Two. The developer made this rather bold claim during an interview with Game Informer, saying that it is very hard to become bored of the forthcoming release.

Hazelight Studios head honcho Josef Fares obviously thinks a lot about his company’s upcoming It Takes Two, so much so that he’s offered $1,000 to anyone who gets tired of it. Yes, really. Fares’ comments come alongside the news that the game has officially gone gold. Speaking with Game Informer,...

After years of development, Josef Fares' Hazelight Studios has completed its work on its next co-op game, It Takes Two. Fares made the announcement on Twitter, saying, "We finally did it! It Takes Two has gone gold." Publisher Electronic Arts responded to Fares' tweet with a humorous animated gif of...
