Independent developer Hit Start Studios announced that its much loved two-player co-op platformer Brave Escape is officially coming to Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 in Q1 2026.
Brave Escape challenges two players to work together as Colin and Floyd – an unlikely duo trying to outrun a series of relentless hazards across hundreds of handcrafted levels. The game blends precision platforming with creative tool-based mechanics, requiring tight coordination, communication and split-second decision making.
“Since launch, we’ve been overwhelmed by the player’s positive response to Brave Escape,” said Steve Ciaramitaro, Game Designer at Hit Start Studios. “Bringing the game to Xbox and PlayStation means even more players can experience the kind of cooperative challenge we set out to create, whether they’re teaming up locally, online or jumping in together through the Friend’s Pass system.”
In Brave Escape, each player takes control of a unique character, each with their own abilities and role. As players progress through themed regions – including Glacial Falls, Ember Caverns, and Serpent’s Hollow – they must master tools such as the Grapple Hook, Wind Gun, Freeze Gun, Flare Launcher and more. Every environment introduces new challenges designed to encourage collaboration and replayability.
To ensure accessibility for all skill levels, Brave Escape includes both a standard mode for platforming veterans and a Casual Mode, which introduces more forgiving timing, fewer hazards and a smoother difficulty curve – making it easier for friends and families to enjoy the full adventure together.
Brave Escape is currently slated for release on Xbox and PlayStation consoles in Q1 2026.
