Unravel Two is about the connecting thread of friendships

Ahead of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, Electronic Arts and Coldwood Interactive surprised folks by launching Unravel Two on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 during the EA Play event. It’s the sequel to Coldwood’s 2016 puzzle platformer and stars the same knitted hero Yarny – but this time, he has a friend. Unravel Two can be played solo or with local co-op, but no matter how you approach it, you’ll have two characters to play with.

As expected, it bears heavy resemblance to its predecessor, Unravel. Yarny can still shoot a lasso of thread to snag certain parts of the environment, swinging through the air and from platform to platform. He can still make yarn bridges to boost his jump. But Unravel Two also features a few new tricks.
