One of the only new IPs announced during EA's press conference was A Way Out, from the man who brought us the emotional gut punch that was Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. It's a narrative driven co-operative game in which you and another player take control of two convicts, Leo and Vincent, with aspirations of breaking out of prison.

The hook, however, is that the game has been built with split screen play in mind, and you'll see one character's actions play out in your half of the screen, and vice versa. It's probably best if you watch the video embedded above.

You can also watch a brief gameplay trailer here. It looks like it could play host to some great co-operative moments, and promises to offer a wide variety of scenarios.
