3. Will The Split Screen Merge At The End? - A Way Out

The Question: A Way Out is a co-op action adventure game in which each player's actions unfold within a split-screen, meaning that each player is always aware of what the other is doing, even if played co-operatively online.

So, will developer Hazelight Studios predictably end their game with a grand, emotional climax where the two screens merge, perhaps as the two brothers are forced to shoot their way to freedom or at least pull off some jaw-dropping feat in perfect concert? Or will it conclude by completely defying expectations instead?

The Likely Answer: It's the obvious way to go, and it'd be a major shock if the split-screen mechanic wasn't upended in some sort of memorable fashion at the very end. After all, it'd be kinda weird if the entire ending just played out in split-screen, unless the characters escape to different places, perhaps?
