Brave Escape trailer: console release date
The official video was published on July 13, 2026. It gives console players the exact date that the PlayStation listing had previously narrowed to July 2026.
The July 24 date applies to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. It is not the original PC release date, as the game has been available on PC since January 2025.
The official Hit Start Studios trailer is the direct source for the date and gameplay footage. It does not announce a French console price.
Brave Escape trailer: co-op gameplay
Colin uses a climbing rope. Floyd uses a boost mechanic. Their abilities must be combined to cross hazards and create openings for each other.
Official descriptions also mention a wind gun, flashlight, grappling hook, freeze gun and magnet gun. These tools support traversal and route-solving rather than combat.
A Casual mode will make obstacles and timing more forgiving. That should help pairs with different skill levels progress through the same stages.
PS5 and Xbox features
PlayStation lists one to two players, optional online play and Remote Play on PS5. PS Plus is required for online sessions.
The official Xbox listing names local and online co-op for two players, shared or split-screen play, and Xbox cross-platform co-op. It does not confirm PlayStation-to-Xbox cross-play.
