[PS5] Game-Breaking Bug - Screen Goes Black When Moving Green Spotlight

Hi,

I'm experiencing a game-breaking bug in It Takes Two on PS5 during The Attic – Rehearsal, specifically in the dark room section where May controls the green spotlight to protect Cody.

The main issue is that the entire screen gradually becomes completely dark/black as soon as we start moving the green spotlight forward through the level.

This happens regardless of Cody's position. Cody can be standing completely inside the green spotlight, even directly in the center of it, but as May moves the spotlight forward, the whole environment and Cody's screen become progressively darker until the screen is almost completely black.

Cody also starts taking damage and eventually dies, even though he is clearly standing inside the green light.

We have tested this several times. It does not seem to be caused by Cody leaving the illuminated area. We can keep Cody completely inside the green spotlight, but simply advancing the green spotlight through this section causes the screen to become darker and darker.

Because of this, we are unable to complete the puzzle or progress any further in the game.

Platform: PlayStation 5
Game: It Takes Two
Chapter: The Attic
Section: Rehearsal – Dark Room / Green Spotlight

So far, I have tried:

• Restarting from the checkpoint
• Restarting the Rehearsal section
• Closing and reopening the game
• Restarting the PS5
• Clearing the PS5 system cache
• Keeping Cody completely still in the center of the green spotlight
• Moving the spotlight very slowly while keeping Cody inside it

The issue happens every time.

I have video footage that clearly shows the problem: Cody is inside the green spotlight, but when the spotlight is moved forward, the entire screen progressively goes dark and Cody begins taking damage.

Thanks for any help.
