Offline Play – What You Need to Know:
Local couch co-op is fully supported.
No EA account or online login needed.
Available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
Just start the game, plug in your controllers, and play.
Online Play Requires Internet
If you want to play with a friend online, you need:
An internet connection
An EA account linked to your platform account
Either the full game or the free Friend’s Pass
Final Blurb
So yes, you can enjoy Split Fiction offline with a friend right next to you. But if your co-op buddy is far away, you’ll both need to hop online. Either way, get ready for a weird and wild ride.
