One of the biggest stories coming away from The Game Awards was the, er, eccentric behaviour of A Way Out director Josef Fares, who spoke candidly about EA's recent PR foibles despite them actually publishing his game, and memorably declared, "F*** the Oscars!"

After Geoff Keighley managed to shut Fares up long enough to actually air a new trailer for the game, it was revealed that the co-op cinematic adventure will release on March 23rd of next year.

Though Fares runs the risk of drawing attention away from the game onto himself, it's still sure to be a net PR gain for the game's online marketing presence. And you know what? It looks pretty damn great, too.
