Hazelight Studios crosses 50M sales across Split Fiction, It Takes Two and A Way Out

Hazelight Studios has made a name for itself over the years with a series of high-quality co-op titles. At this stage, the studio has managed to sell 50 million copies of its games, but as you may expect, the majority of that comes from 2021 GOTY winner, It Takes Two. 

In an update this week, Hazelight shared sales figures for its three biggest titles. A Way Out, the prison-escape game from 2018, has managed 13 million sales. The studio's next project, It Takes Two, which also won GOTY at The Game Awards in 2021, has sold over 30 million copies, showing just how powerful global lockdowns were for the gaming market following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hazelight's most recent game, Split Fiction, which came out just last year, has sold over 7 million copies at this stage.

It is unclear what Hazelight is working on next but the studio has found its niche with interesting co-op titles developed under well-managed scope and budget.

KitGuru Says: Hazelight Studios has its own fandom at this stage, which is a great position for a company to be in. There are millions who will buy whatever interesting co-op title they put out. I just hope they take lessons from Telltale and don't expand too much and saturate the market.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
