Studio Lead Josef Fares made a post in which he confirmed Hazelight’s next game will be a new IP. He went as far as to say the title is two words, the first starting with an S, and the second ending with an N. The official studio account quoted that posted with a graphic confirming that the game will be published by Electronic Arts under the EA Originals label.

With the success of It Takes Two, it’s no secret that Hazelight has been hard at work on its next project. Bookmark our topic page dedicated to the company for updates on that game.
