Split Fiction is a two-player co-op game, meaning you must play with a partner—there’s no option to play solo. Like Hazelight’s previous games (It Takes Two and A Way Out), the entire game is built around cooperation, requiring two players to work together to progress through puzzles, platforming sections, and combat encounters.
Can You Play Split Fiction Solo?
No, Split Fiction does not offer a single-player mode or an AI-controlled partner. Every puzzle and level is designed with two players in mind, making communication and teamwork essential.
How Can You Play Split Fiction With a Friend?
There are two ways to play:
Local Co-Op – Play on the same screen with split-screen functionality. Great for couch co-op.
Online Co-Op – Play with a friend over the internet.
Does Split Fiction Have Crossplay?
Yes, Split Fiction supports crossplay across all platforms. This means you can play with a friend even if you’re on different systems (like one person on PlayStation and another on PC).
What Is the Friend Pass?
Hazelight continues its tradition of including a Friend Pass, or Buddy Pass, which means:
Only one player needs to own the game.
The second player can download a free version and join the session without buying the game.
This works for both online and cross-platform play.
Final Blurb
If you’re looking for a game to play solo, Split Fiction isn’t it. But if you have a friend (or can convince someone to be your co-op partner), this game offers a unique and creative two-player experience filled with action, puzzles, and bizarre moments.
