    I have yet to play the developers other games, but hearing the hype I decided to take the plunge and buy it to try with my online friend. It’s blown both of us away and is very fun. Both in gameplay elements and the little “for nothing” things you can do in the level. Let’s just say these two 40 year olds sound like teens chuckling and saying things like “dude look I’m carrying a giant ball lol”. The visuals are also very cool. The negatives I could point out, though they are nothing compared to the positives, is lack of voice chat, lack of “pointing/pinging at something, and a caution that it’s current gen only. Sorry PS4…. “PlayStation network party chat” being down twice now has caused us to be almost unable to progress at all as some areas require talk amongst the players. Having a way to point out things or ping them could help a little. It could be advertised a little better that it is unplayable on older systems like PS4 etc. The party pass description makes it sound like it’s able to be played on all consoles. Only deep dive looking it up you barely come across the small print that it’s not. Long story short though, if you have local friends or online PS5 friends, this is an amazing game to play and explore together. Surely it will be nominated for Game of the Year.

    I bought Split Fiction to play with the wife. We really enjoyed It Takes Two, we when SF was announced we instantly knew we were going to buy it. I buy most of my games and all of my consoles from amazon. They always delivery pristine products with decent delivery times. Split fiction was one of the best games from 2025, which is a huge compliment considering how stacked this year has been! The graphics, performance, story, and especially the gameplay were all amazing! I highly recommend it!!

    Even if you have to pay retail, just get it, as long as you have someone to play it with, and while you are at it, get the other two games from the same studio; but, don't pay full price for those. It's like art, just beautiful scenery, graphics, simple controls, great story line, memorable characters, and just a joy to play. HOWEVER, there is one draw back that I do HATE, which is almost another compliment to them, and while the main game it almost the perfect length there is really very little re-playability, because once you cycle through as each of the two characters, there isn't a whole lot of anything left to explore :(

    Fabulous multiplayer game! The best part about Split Fiction is that only one player needs to get the game, and another friend can join in using an invitation. I beat the game with a friend playing online, and it was one of the best gaming experiences we had this year. The gameplay is fun, with new elements across each level which switches things up consistently and keeps everything fresh. The final boss segment was mindblowing! I'd highly recommend this game to anyone looking for an amazing co-op experience.

    This was an automatic buy for our family and it did not disappoint. Gameplay is great, graphics are fantastic and story is awesome. Bonus: no glitches or issues, just hich is so freaking rare these days. We played It Takes Two, then A Way Out, so this is our third game experience from this studio. It won’t be the last. We’ll be buying any game this studio puts out in the future.

    Split Fiction is a fun and engaging co-op game that really tests teamwork. My partner and I enjoyed the creative puzzles and unique levels. It’s a great choice if you’re looking for something that brings people together and keeps you thinking as a team.

    Split Fiction is a great game. I’ve been playing it with my wife, and we’ve had a lot of fun. The levels are creative, the gameplay stays varied, and the boss fights are a real highlight. It’s also really nice that you only need one copy to play together. If you’re looking for a co-op game, this one’s an easy recommendation.

    This game is AWESOME! It is from the same makers of the hit game, IT TAKES 2. It is a 2-player only game, so you cannot play this game solo. You can play with someone locally on the couch, or you can play online with someone. There is even a feature called Friend's Pass, where if the other person doesn't have the game, they can download the game as a game share by EA. You go through a pretty awesome story with the two characters, solving these puzzles to get through the game. If you're a mystery or puzzle lover, this is a MUST.

    A complete blast of a video game. Perfect to play with a friend or your children. The amount of imagination and different situations, is just insane. The graphics are great, with a beautiful story and a perfect gameplay. You can play with a person next to you or give a “friend code” to a friend to play with you.

    I enjoyed playing "A Way Out" and am a huge fan of "It Takes Two" so, needless to say, Split Fiction was a day one purchase for me and I was not disappointed. This game is simply incredible. The graphics are very polished and immersive, at times it feels like you want to physically dodge your head as you react to whats going on in the game. The story is a little bland and I find myself not really too invested in that but, where the game truly shines, is the game play. It takes collaboration and planning with the second player to get anywhere in this game and that truly makes its unique and fun! Keep in mind that this is a two player game and there isn't a one player campaign mode. I've been playing with friends and family but you can also join the Hazelight discord to find random people to play with.

    Best couch split-screen game that there currently is. 10/10. Very fun and entertaining. I think it’s appropriate for all age groups. Can’t go wrong with this 1 unless you have nobody to play with as it just wouldn’t be the same.

    Best Two-Player Game Ever??

    This game is such a blast. I’m playing with my boyfriend, and our different playing styles are well matched for this game. We both regularly game so most of the time, we zip through pretty quickly; but there are times when neither of us knows what to do and it takes us a minute to figure it out. It is SO satisfying when it clicks what to do …and then when we actually manage to accomplish it. The plot so far is great, and the graphics are amazing. Would die for Mio 10/10

    Whether you prefer the retrospective, future and cut-edge sci-fi or enchanting, beautiful nature and adventure roots of fantasy- Split Fiction encapsulates both purely! Easy to pick up on, though some puzzles in which you must work together with your co-op partner do demand strategy, teamwork and no hesitation! The story of this game is very intriguing, and has breakthrough graphics and gameplay tactics! I highly recommend giving Split Fiction a try. (By the way, this game shares the same game developer, Hazelight, which also developed It Takes Two- so if you liked that game, this is definitely for you!)

    I could sing this game's praises until my last breath. The plot, character development, level design, music and diversity in levels is just the surface level. It tells a beautiful story and does it in a relatable way that will charm any audience. On top of that, you have to work together with someone and that creates a lot of additional fun and laughter.
