Split Fiction

Hazelight Studios has released a new trailer for its latest co-op action-adventure title, Split Fiction. Available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, it’s received extensive praise from critics. Check out the positive impressions in the trailer, or read our review here.

Split Fiction revolves around Mio and Zoe, two unpublished authors trapped in a simulation. Working together to survive, they traverse each others’ worlds, from sci-fi to fantasy, resulting in various co-op scenarios with different gameplay mechanics. Director Josef Fares estimates 12 to 14 hours to complete the main story, though there’s plenty of side content to plow through.

While the budget is almost double that of It Takes Two, Split Fiction has been a much bigger success. It sold two million copies in its first week and became Electronic Arts’ second-biggest launch on Steam ever. If that wasn’t enough, it’s the first title from the publisher to achieve a 90+ Metascore in 13 years.
