How to unlock two endings in A Way Out
If you're looking for both endings for A Way Out, here's how to get them and what they reveal.
Ending Conditions
Towards the end of the game, players learn that Vincent has been an undercover cop all along and has been using Leo to bring back Black Orlov and bring justice to his dead brother Gary. This leads to a wild situation where Leo takes Vincent hostage, where they fight so much that their car falls off a bridge. Surviving, Leo starts escaping in a boat, with Vincent chasing him in a helicopter. Eventually, they catch up with each other at the warehouse, which leads to a shootout between them.
Further, the fate of the game depends on who will survive in this battle. The advantage in victory is the one who inflicts the most damage during the fight. At the end of the skirmish, Leo and Vincent will be disarmed and will try to get to the gun, although both of them are injured. Whoever reaches it will deal the final blow to his former ally. Then a sequence of actions will be shown that will show what happens after the fight is over.
Leo's ending
If Leo shoots Vincent, a scene will be shown in which Vincent asks Leo to deliver the last letter to his wife Carol. On screen, Vincent disappears and the players watch Leo leave. After a while, Leo hands the letter to Carol without showing his face, and the players hear Vincent's voice reading the letter as she reads it. Leo is reunited with his wife Linda and son Alex, they start to pack and go to unknown lands. The game ends as players watch Leo leave while Vincent's funeral is taking place.
Vincent's ending
If Vincent finishes the fight, Leo will fall and Vincent will hold his hand while the teammate who betrayed him dies. Some time after the fight, Vincent will visit Linda and Alex to tell them the news of his death. Saddened, Linda kicks Vincent out of her trailer. Vincent later returns to his house to make amends with Carol. He tells her that he has decided to quit the police force so that he can spend time with her and their newborn baby. After Carol invites Vincent into the house, the scene changes and the players watch Linda and Alex visit Leo's grave.
